21001662 headlamp – Description

21001662 headlamp is a right-hand-drive, halogen, manual-adjust headlamp with a square connector and E-marked optics, engineered as a direct right-side replacement for vehicles suitable for and compatible with VOLVO FH and FM trucks around the 2005 production period. Supplied without bulbs, it lets workshops choose locally approved halogen light sources while keeping wiring connections and aiming procedures familiar for VOLVO-compatible fleets.

Designed for cab geometries used on FH and FM vehicles suitable for and compatible with VOLVO, the 21001662 headlamp provides a well-defined dipped-beam cut-off and strong main-beam range when correctly aimed. Manual adjusters and the square connector layout simplify installation on trucks whose harness and mounting points are based on the original VOLVO headlamp design, supporting consistent light output in night-time long-haul and regional distribution work.

In OE catalogues the 21001662 headlamp is associated with a wide family of right-hand references – 20861582, 20762995, 20713719, 20360897, 20360889, 20360899, 20360903, 20713715, 20713721, 20713725, 20713729, 20762993, 20763001, 20763003, 2082623, 20861574, 20861576, 20861584, 21001649, 21001651, 21001668, 21001673, 21094524 , all linked to FH and FM platforms suitable for and compatible with VOLVO. Using 21001662 headlamp as the main stocking code helps distributors cover many variants without holding excessive individual SKUs.

A robust housing, sealed lens and halogen reflector system are specified to withstand vibration, stone impact and weather on high-mileage tractors and rigids suitable for and compatible with VOLVO FH and FM ranges. When paired with the correct left lamp and properly maintained, the 21001662 headlamp supports a clean, professional front appearance and dependable illumination for mature but still productive Scandinavian fleets.

Bulk Purchase Benefits

Distributors and fleet operators who maintain vehicles suitable for and compatible with VOLVO FH and FM trucks can use the 21001662 headlamp as their primary RHD right-side lamp for mid-2000s models. Its broad OE cross-reference mapping makes it ideal for consolidating inventory while still covering multiple cab and trim variants.

Cartons clearly marked with 21001662 headlamp and main cross-reference numbers help warehouse teams quickly identify the correct right lamp for VOLVO-compatible vehicles, reducing picking mistakes and shortening repair cycles. This is particularly valuable for hubs that ship parts to remote depots supporting long-haul FH and FM operations.

Fleet customers operating mixed-age tractors and rigids suitable for and compatible with VOLVO can integrate the 21001662 headlamp into standard overhaul kits, replacing tired, yellowed or cracked lamps ahead of periodic inspection. Harmonised packaging dimensions simplify pallet planning and help protect lamps during export shipments and cross-border logistics.

DIY Replacement Guide

Before working on the 21001662 headlamp, park the truck suitable for and compatible with VOLVO FH or FM on level ground, apply the parking brake and follow the fleet’s lockout procedures. Switch off all exterior lighting, and if required, isolate the battery according to workshop safety rules.

Access the right headlamp by opening the front service panel or removing trim on the FH/FM cab suitable for and compatible with VOLVO. Support the lamp while loosening mounting fasteners, then gently pull the assembly forward to expose the square electrical connector and any additional side or position light plugs, unplugging them without straining the loom.

Check the harness, connector pins and sealing faces for corrosion, moisture or mechanical damage on vehicles suitable for and compatible with VOLVO. Install approved halogen bulbs into the 21001662 headlamp, avoiding fingerprints on the glass. Offer the new lamp into the aperture, ensure all locating tabs seat correctly and tighten fixings evenly so the lens aligns with surrounding panels.

Reconnect the square connector, restore power and test dipped beam, main beam and position light functions. Use the manual adjusters to set the beam on a headlight aimer according to alignment data for FH and FM trucks compatible with VOLVO, and re-check lamp security and aim after the first long trip.

Compliance Statement

The 21001662 headlamp uses E-marked reflector and lens geometry together with durable housing materials chosen for heavy-duty use on vehicles suitable for and compatible with VOLVO FH and FM platforms. When equipped with regulation-approved halogen bulbs and correctly aimed, it supports compliance with widely applied European road-lighting standards.

Sealing concepts and drainage paths help limit dust and moisture intrusion on high-mileage tractors and rigids suitable for and compatible with VOLVO, even in harsh weather and long-haul duty. Regular inspection of lens clarity, mounting hardware and beam alignment should form part of preventive maintenance and pre-inspection checks.

This product is intended as a service replacement headlamp for professional workshops and distributors supplying fleets suitable for or compatible with VOLVO FH and FM trucks. Final legal conformity depends on correct installation, suitable bulb choice and adherence to local headlamp aiming regulations.
