I had read the manually carefully dec 1994 and was aware that it might be possible to disable the DRLs. Since my insurance company gives a discount for DRLs (could be NY insurance BS law) I leave them on and think it's a good idea.

When I realized a headlight was out I moved the light switch from the 9pm to 10pm position so any passing cop wouldn't stop me and give me a ticket. There was still daylight. Same thing next day when driving to the parts shop. So that10pm must be the parking light position. You can forget to turn them off. I drive my under 3600 lb 80s cars with the headlights on , hoping it will prevent an accident.

I didn't say anything about 14v but i did measure the voltage on the right harness and it was about 14.

since I hope to keep my 850 another 20 years maybe I should buy some harnesses and keep-em in the freezer. Unfortunately a lot of Volvo parts are going No LOnger AVAILABLE. I can relate to the Cubans.

Merci
