Does anybody have the measurements that Patstan mentions below. I need to start drilling this weekend to get access to my boot :-(

hi, I have a Volvo v70 & the tailgate is stuck shut, my problem is that the tailgate trim has grey plastic trim all around the carpet trim,do I need to pry the plastic trim away before I can start on the carpet? I don't want to destroy the panel as I had a similar problem with a rear door lock on an s80, real pain!

Years ago I cut that U-shaped flap and managed to get to the lock.
Not the prettiest though if the tailgate trim is your pride and joy

rear panel
hey backo, I like you're style! my previous post was nonsence, ther is no plastic trim, I must have dreamt there was. I have now managed to pull away the panel where it meets the glass. however I cannot see the spoon, looking at you're picture, if I drill a decent sized hole, would you say where abouts would be best? middle of your square? up a bit, down a bit etc!! cheers anyway, best advice yet

I think if you're careful with the saw (fine tooth) and cut in straight lines (unlike me) you'll end up with a result looking better than a drilled hole. Good luck

tailgate stuck
hi, YES! managed to open tailgate. I pulled out the carpet trim 3 inches & managed to get my arm to the spoon it took a couple of minutes to locate as you can't see the thing, but as the light is now fading, i'll carry on with this in daylight. the problem iv'e now got is that the actuator arm is missing the spoon, but by quite a distance! do I need to take off the entire lock to sort this properly?

Hi all, I've stripped the panels off and the wiring seems fine.
Checked the wiring continuity from the lock to the LHS speaker molex connector and all fine aside from one yellow wire I can't account for. Wiring on the outside all fine, no visible breaks. Fuse fine. Swapped the relay with the matching one below and no change either. However it appears that the push rod from the handle doesn't appear to push anything that activates the latch. Please see the short video and let me know what you think. https://youtu.be/kKD2UxYugwc On an unrelated note I think the battery went flat whilst I troubleshooting an indicator bulb. Turning the key lights up the info panel as usual but no start & indicators & central locking off (start motor fuse and relay seem fine)... not a productive day. |
