It's a V40 sport estate, '04 reg
Everything was working fine for a while after i got it. It just decided one morning to stop working altogether. Unfortunately, of course, i can't get the boot open as the lock appears to have been changed at some point and the key doesn't fit. Volvo released the fuel filler flap for me though, but weren't much help otherwise. I'm not paying £500 for labour plus parts to fix this issue. Any other info you could give me would be a great help. My next step is to check the rest of the locks, including the bonnet (which i may just change anyway) Unless you can suggest anything else. Thanks for your time, it's much appreciated Last edited by marty3271; Jun 7th, 2013 at 22:14. |

Silly thing, but can you check if both connectors on the driver's door switch are connected properly?

Already have, it's been off and on a couple of times now. I had the door card off yesterday and changed the microswitch in the lock to see if that was the issue, still nothing.

Which leaves two possible causes. Either the lock alarm unit it fried, or there is a ground sorting somewhere.

I've now changed the bonnet lock for one with a microswitch and plugged it in. Still no response from the central locking, either from the fob or from the switched inside.
I'm at a loss now, i've swapped the control unit, rc receiver, bonnet lock, drivers side micro switch, sensor on dashboard and still nothing. If you've any other ideas, it would be much appreciated. Last edited by marty3271; Jun 11th, 2013 at 17:16. |

I am wondering if reading the VGLA codes with DICE would shed any light
