Guide overview

Before you begin

In order to safely perform the guides for the Volvo 740, these steps must be taken to prepare the car to be worked on.

Step 1

Repair step

  • First, disconnect the battery.
  • Always take the negative terminal off first, then the positive terminal.
  • General Tip: After disconnecting the battery, let the car sit for about 10 minutes. This will allow any residual energy left in the system to settle and it is good practice for any job you are completing.
