Hi there: Any help would be appreciated. I have a 1998 v70 with auto trans. The lights on the radio ,on the gear selector and on 1 seat heater button are out . I have checked all of the fuses and they seem fine. Has this happened to anyone and if so do you know what the problem is.
Thanks Tony Baptista

(A Volvo dealer will sell you a radio for this problem.) These bulbs are available from Radio Shack and other electronic stores, and need to be inserted into the old bulb holders.
Here is the size of bulb you need:
