Boot lock issue - advice on fitting replacement kit please!
Ok so my gf had the button for the boot lid held in whilst I was unlocking it using the key fob.
What seems to be the common problem occurred where the button got jammed in and no matter what we did we could not get it free without breaking the a plastic link between the central locking solenoid and the release handle. Volvo do a kit for £17.15 to replace the necessary parts. Only one part is broken but to get to it requires the destruction of at least one other component by the looks of it. I am going to give it a go tomorrow night after work, but I wondered if anyone had done it themselves before and had any tips or advice? Thanks, Phil |
