Electrics: - P2 V70 2005 Rear park light intermitent

Had exactly the same with brake light, tried new holder first but didn't fix it in this instance (it might for you though)

Removed light cluster and found metal track work down where the metal tab of the holder connects. Just welded in a little blob and linished it smooth, now has good contact again

Another option might be just look on ebay and replace the cluster there's usually one or two on there of decent standard

My V70 had same issue, INOP reversing light and top running light intermittent. Turns out previous water ingress had buggered up the connections. My mechanic swapped out the bulb holders and wiring connectors which solved the issue.
