V70 2003 Unlocking Itself

Post by almille2 »

I have a 2003 Volvo V70 wagon that seems to randomly unlock itself. This is usually only the drivers side door. It is also unusual that it only seems to happen when the car is in my garage. I have not noticed it happening outside the garage ---but it may have. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what might be causing this problem.

This section addresses the '92 -'00 Gen 1 850/70 series cars. ( Earlier version's of your 2003.)
For better advice on 2001 and up P2 type Volvo's, you might try reposting your problem here:

Post moved. My guess would be something in the door lock module, or a software problem. Hopefully you will get more help on your issue in this section of the forum.
