Just to make anyone who has a door lock fail feel a little better , most cars these days use very similar locks and most seem to suffer the same problems. Jaguars ,BMW ,Mercedes and other all use very similar locks that in turn use c*** electric motors that just fail after a few years . Hence the availability of pattern replacement door locks on e-bay ; although replacement for Volvos do seem scarce and a lot more expensive !
I repaired the motors on My sons Volvo locks due to cost but fitted replacement locks on my Jag as thaey are a fraction of the cost and quicker and easier to fit complete lock.
