I actually designed that Halfords Paint can in 1990… it was one of my first ever jobs as a designer when I left college!!! We borrowed the car from Ford… a Granada if I remember correctly. I hated the yellow stripe on the can, but Halfords were insisting it had to be that colour 😊

The black boot between throttlebody and fuel distributor. If I rember correctly from 20 years back. It does come off easily but putting it back is slight pain. Taking boot off it wil give you ton of space to use correct size long socket or spanner.

A fairly cheap set of crow's foot wrenches that will fit on a ratchet or breaker bar does make a number of jobs on older Volvos considerably easier, as I discovered when I had to change the temperature gauge sender on my old 244. Interestingly, that one was still working correctly, even though it was leaking coolant through the middle of it due to the plastic insulating material having broken down...

[@garyjohnson5551]

Never thought in a million years I would be hooked by a channel on a subject I know nothing about. Most enjoyable!

[@bmw-e30]

Have to agree and say that headlamp wipers are really cute. Were on the e30 as well but gave some trouble.

[@TheDutyPaid]

When you do get to put the new temp sender in, add some PTFE tape to the threads. They do love to leak on replacement without it.

[@Zeem4]

Wow - I remember using those cans of Halfords paint in the mid-90s, to do touch-up jobs on my dad's Morris Ital! I even remember the colour - Nautilus Blue. I also used a load of the same paint when I stripped, repainted and rebuilt an old bicycle that my granddad gave me, which really annoyed my dad as he'd bought the paint for the car.

[@alansimpson835]

[@furiousdriving]

Why does that always happen!

[@steveunderwood3683]

The 1980s had a different set of priorities. Motors to power the windows were too expensive for anything but the highest spec model, but motors for headlamp wipers were standard in the base model.

[@rydermike33]

Agree with 'Gray Fool', Mr HubNut will be most pleased. Many thanks Matt.

[@skimmingstoness]

I found the best way to change my Bosch Aero wiper when it was seized on was to wait until the windscreen got icey then whack the wiper on full and viola it ripped it right off.

[@seancooke4127]

Fabulously interesting stuff. Really love this car. You should recommend this model to Hubnut for his future american adventure, he wasn't sure what to drive on such a trip and certainly not a 2CV.

[@jefferysmith3930]

Whew! What a relief. I was waiting for the wiper arm to get knocked and smash into the windshield. I’ve watched that happen on a new Beetle being prepared for delivery. Ouch! If there is room to get a socket on the sensor you could just break the plastic connector end off with a long extension and a hammer. Cheers!

[@furiousdriving]

Think the sockets going to have to break off then a socket will go on

[@GPOTOM]

I did exactly the same thing with the washer clip on one of my 240's headlights, snapped in two. Thankfully I had a replacement that I got off a scrapper. My left hand headlight washer jet seems to spray more out of the end than towards the light, so it tends to soak any pedestrians or cyclists I happen to be passing!

[@furiousdriving]

good trick of you like that sort of prank!

[@jefferysmith3930]

Oh, and JB weld the headlamp wiper fitting back together. About 1/4 of my old Passat is mended with that wonderful product.

[@antonioercolino6087]

I smashed my windscreen on my BMW 316 E30 by leaving the wiper arms up. They've also got a crazy strong spring. That drain is an accident just waiting to happen . Just get some fine mesh and wire it to the underside of the drain and if any thing should get dropped on it, it won't fall through. 😊

[@lesrogers7310]

Superb, the little wiper motors actually still work. I used find that as they were subject to all the grit and grime thrown up from other vehicles they would seize up rather than stay working.

I did wonder about that but the plastic end basin so many pieces!

[@steamhammer2k]

@@furiousdriving .. oow that`s not so good, It would be nice if you could find a used wiper arm. FYI getting the jet off an old arm would tricky as they get brittle with age. Also I got a feeling that the left and right jets might be different.

I was never sure if the the headlight washer jets (not wipers) only worked when the headlights were on , interestimg to find out.

[@michaeltutty1540]

Another great video. I have always wanted to add the headlamp wiper/washer to Arthur. He had blanking plugs in the holes in the piece below the headlamps. Unfortunately they were not factory fitted on Canadian spec cars.

[@furiousdriving]

Is it an easy upgrade - is there the architecture behind the lamp to install them?

[@neilwalsh4058]

Huge fan of the headlight wiper, so nice that the motors still work unlike my '98 W140 that I spent ages and money on before Xmas getting mine working properly. Tricks for old cans of paint: Warm them up in hot water for a minute or so to increase the aerosol pressure and soak the nozzle in celly thinners for same time. So many people don't clear the nozzle after use, combine that with age related pressure drop and you get the classic dribble symptoms you had here. BTW. Get that wing sticker off, it's just wrong!!!

[@furiousdriving]

Ive done that before, and always do with underseal and body wax but at 25 years old i was surprised this worked at all!

[@AndyDento21]

I had to replace my headlight wipers on my mk1 c70... I still need to get the left motor to work but I just really did them so the front end looked proper 🤣😉

[@seanjordan2005]

ive had to do the temperature sensor on my car. I thought it was difficult to get to and buried but the Volvo is definitely worse luckily the connector was significantly smaller and I couldn't get a spanner on due to pipes and things but could get a long 19mm socket over it with an extension no problem. the connector on mine was a lot slimmer so a long socket worked.

[@topgearfanatic2]

Loving this car. There's something charming about classics like this. It's nice and sunny up north (lake district)

[@Bratfalken]

I liked the headlamp vipers, in bad weather and particulary wet snow you could allways get better lighting, without risking a cracked headlight as these glass ones can get a little hot when using 100/55w H4 lightbulbs! (Not original) These days highpressure "cleaners" along with plastic lense and antifreeze wiper fluid is killing the lenses. The 740 headlamp vipers will cope with getting stuck in the winter and just keep on viping when they taw loose. Many owners up here cut away the axles as soon as EU regulations didn't make them mandatory any more, which I think was a pity. Yes, the blades cost about the same as those for the windshield, but their claim that these didn't work is rubbish. Unfortunatly I saw seconds before you cracked the bladeholder/washer nozzle that it was going to end up that way, been there done that got the t-shirt! I would buy one of you but I doubt you got any 9XL! ;)

[@Bratfalken]

And if in freezing conditions, allways loosen the window vipers, the linkage, which you can get to under the air intake just loosing a couple of bolts under the hood, are a tad flimsy, my father came home with one viper stationary and the other viping the hood one cold day. The linkage is just thin metal bent into an V shape and has plastic holes at the ends, one of his had jumped off and the other was bent. I could straighten it and put both back on, but it is not funny in bad weather! At least the linkage isn't underneath the dashboard like in the 240 and older models!

[@furiousdriving]

Im not sure what sizes the shirts go to, Redbubble look after that! There are notebooks and socks if not! What was the give away the wiper was going to shatter? The way it looked or you could see it was going to ping back?

[@Bratfalken]

@@furiousdriving they get fragile when old and don't take much force to break the thin plastics. I lost a new viper blade by that, so getting two new ones would "secure your investment" for a while! ;)

Hot headlamp wiper action just in time for the impending storm! Mr Seabrook would be proud.

[@bobjohnson205]

Here's some advice from someone who has been driving Volvo's for over 40 years and this particular model for over 20 years. The best thing to use to touch-up the wiper arms is a black felt marker. It's much quicker and better than paint. I have been using a felt marker for many years and it does the job and is pretty much a perfect match to the existing finish on the arms.

Tips for getting nuts in hard to reach places... 😏 You may have it already but if not, let me introduce, one of my favorite tools, always in my car; the Knipex pliers wrench in 150 or 180mm size. Called "tångnyckel" in Sweden 🤓

[@furiousdriving]

I think the Americans call them channel locks, they still look a bit big to get in that gap to be honest

[@SuperFIFTHGEAR]

Every time I listen to that intro (and outro) I now think of your 145. Oh yes, headlamp wipers! 😍 Is that a stone chip in the nearside headlight? If you've got any stone chips on the windscreen you could get them to fill that in at the same time, although when I left National Windscreens to do that (just the windscreen, while the car was in the work's car park and I was away) on the Golf I ended up having to go to their office in Dartford after I accused them of taking the £25 and not doing anything. Got there (after complaining to their head office) and after much scrutiny they concluded that "the compound must've fallen out"...

[@furiousdriving]

It has got a chip in that light, I was wondering if its possible to DIY repair the same way?

[@SuperFIFTHGEAR]

@@furiousdriving I don't know, is the honest answer, possibly I would've thought. Can you take the headlight apart and just buy the glass (I had that happen on a brand new lorry at work - all week it'd been into the garage for one problem or another - small stuff, bolts not tightened up, safety valves not working properly, had an electrical problem which had it off the road for two days and eventually I had to take it back to Nuneaton to have the wiring repaired and on the Friday you guessed it, everything working fine on the way to a site, get there, walked around the vehicle and smashed headlight - the garage took it apart and just replaced the glass - they couldn't believe it. I'd had my old lorry for years, no problems at all, get in a new lorry all of those problems, and then a smashed headlight. That never happens!!) or would you need an entire new headlight? I would also imagine (looks like the chip is at the top) so is it normal glass, or does it have the lines on it to help the beam pattern? I'd say definitely worth a shot, if not for the content alone. We've all got plenty of time on our hands at the moment!! Did just Google "DIY cracked headlight glass" and almost all products were for plastic lenses, but if you Google "DIY windscreen repair kit" there's loads for glass. If not add it to the list of parts, along with OEM headlight protectors ;) Got some of those for the Golf too, but they cost more than I can get a used headlight from a breakers. I got the last NOS set from Volkswagen UK, presumably that have been sat on a shelf for fifteen years, and now in my cupboard gathering dust...

Hi Matt, I've found the Denso wipers are actually rather good and I really like how you fit them (once you figure out how it works). I got mine from Opie Oils - I can recommend that company - in my experience they were superb; order placed, order came - not the cheapest but I would rather have reliable than cheap, maybe that's just me. I think the Denso wipers are better than the Bosch ones I used to have but then any new wipers are going to be better that the old ones aren't they? Even Bosch ones. Sorry, I just like the Denso wiper blades but that's mainly because they're bloody good. Mike.

Those Denso wipers are standard on many Japanese cars (Denso is a Japanese company btw lol) and they are meant to be an ‘aero’ style like the newer generation wipers on newer cars

[@Butlerbob]

Do you also know why Volvo had wipers on the headlights? that is because you have quite a few tunnels in Scandinavia that are not perfectly finished, just say that they are still in rough condition and since there is a lot of moisture in those tunnels and dirt, of course, you suddenly saw nothing through your windshield and at the same time your headlights because these tunnels do not have light, which is why you also have some kind of washing facilities after almost every tunnel where you can wash or clean your windows, etc. of your car. I was able to experience this for myself.

[@reddermot]

'Windscreen wipers on your headlights' lol. Why use two words when five will do just fine? Loving your channel already.

[@delukxy]

I'm surprised you didn't just break off the plastic part of the sensor and use a socket or ring. Snug the new one up with an open ender. BSP thread I think so not too tight. It might come out easier with the engine hot?

[@furiousdriving]

I might have, to but still need to tighten the new one. If a sockets on there it should move OK

[@furiousdriving]

[@hughbishopnh]

Option #1; Looks like the open ended spanner head comes up from below but no room to turn it. So cut the handle off leaving 1" (25mm to you EU guys) and weld a nut to the handle. Then use a socked on a 10" extension to turn it off. A plumbing supply shop would have a similar looking tool. Option #2; cut the electrical connector off the sensor and use a 19mm socket or ring spanner but how do you then get the new one fitted tight? Furious leaking?

[@furiousdriving]

Its both the handle AND the knuckles of the spanner head that foul, only a ring spanner or socket will turn in there so looks like the connector has to go

[@jamesinc87]

The way you get that sensor is with a 19mm deep socket and an extension, from the side

[@furiousdriving]

only once the sensor is broken off the bolt though as its bigger

[@furiousdriving]

wind blows....tea shelf...

[@gosportjamie]

The wipers on the headlights (should) only operate if the main headlights are switched on and the wipers are on, so you can still drive it in daylight in the rain without chewing up your paint. The fact that they come on just with the windscreen wipers might mean you have a seized relay in the electrical system that is allowing them to operate all the time, rather than just when the headlights are on... The wiper motor assemblies on Volvos and SAABs are generally much more robust and well sealed than those on other cars so it's pretty unusual for them not to be working, even on vehicles in advanced stated of decrepitude or age. Those on my sister's old 1974 245 still worked perfectly, even if literally nothing, including the engine, did...

[@GPOTOM]

On my 1987 240, the headlight wipers only operate with the windscreen washer, regardless of whether the lights are on or not.
