Default Replacing the Indicator

Hello, I am new to this Volvo Forum and I need my fellow Volvo lovers help. I indicated to change lanes and the indicator snapped in my hand. I need some advice on how to remove the front cover of the steering wheel and how to replace the indicator. Thanks

Remove the steering column covers. You will have to remove 2 T-15 screws in the front part of the cover. You will need it to be long to reach the screws. That will remove the top cover. Note be careful removing the T-15 screws. Hold down on the top cover while removing then or the tabs might break off the top cover. Then remove the 2 T-25 screws and remove the lower cover.

Next remove the turn signal switch, it is held on by 2 T-25 screws.

Don't you need to pull the steering wheel too? And if you're going to do that, make sure you disconnect the battery so as not to set a SRS code...


BTW: where's GTA?
