:wtf: Looking for some ideas before i start taking things apart , has anybody come across this before:whilst using the remote or key fob all doors and boot will open and close except the passenger front it will close ok but will not open again , the same thing also applies when using the drivers switch pack it closes with every other door but does not open with the other doors ?????
ANY IDEAS? VOLVO S70

Could be just a bit sticky, otherwise a linkage problem?

Take the door cards of and see if the liberal application of rocket wd40 loosens up the bits. Failing that it could be a worn CL motor.

Its probably the white plastic piece from the lock mechanism to the door knob rod,
If it is this which is broken it means a whole new Lock mech,

Worth checking the Haynes before prising off any trim. On my 850, the leather door inserts are held on with little plastic grommets that break very easily. Not that critical to wait for I s'pose but thought I'd let you know.

I used a bloody big knife like those that are used in the jungle to slip behind the door card and gently prise it off,Be very carefull though they do break,

Keep us informed of how it is going,You do know the left sides of door mech are the same part so are both the right sides.
As for the large Knife i meant in width and not in length,Just incase someone goes at it with a sword :slap:
