I could not do it on my 98 T4 but they changed some equipment on 99 models onwards.

I just tried it on my 99 1.6 XS and I can confirm that it doesn't work. The light switch does not retract.

Fantastic,

so far I have sorted the service light and the now the 'nutsy' headlamp arrangement on my new to me 03 V40 D. I didn't check but I presume this does not kill the parking lights if left in pos. 2 (led on) when leaving the car?

Thanks guys, I am still using search rather than entering the forums top down, but as a newbie I can envisage a popular addition of a tweaks and resets sticky under the S40/V40 titles.

This is so much more of a car than my old 440 an extremely reliable but horribly boring car I had for a few years in the mid nineties. The V40 although still excitingly new, feels great to drive and looks good too, I liked them when they came out but I preferred my legacy AWD estate at the time.

Hello by the way

it can be done but will need to be plugged into the volvo vadis computer at the dealership for them to reset the DRL settings.
