V70 Mk2 rear light cluster LED's

Richardkimber · Oct 14th, 2016, 17:59

At the bottom of the rear light cluster to the outside of the reversing light there is a vertical line of about 5 red LED's.
All the LED's on the RHS cluster are out.
Are they replaceable or are they an intergral part of the lower rear light cluster unit ?
I think I know what the answer will be, either live with it or a new rear light cluster.

You can get the leds as a repair kit. Note they are handed .

They are handed , best give FRF Volvo a ring as they do offer a discount it's worth a phone call.

I thought 5 min job, well 30 mins later its still there !

Its the gas strut type, with a Torkx locking bolt that has a red and green position 90degree turn.
Have turned it to the green position, but neither the bracket or the Torkx bolt will release.

Any ideas ?

New circuit board with LED's is about £45~£50.
This DIY job cost me £2, LED's and resistor, I already had the rest.
