2002 V70 passenger side front door not unlocking

Post by GBS »

Hey all,

so finally I've got to the point where I want to fix my front passenger side door lock. Vadis has been showing a code for door lock issue for years and finally now its stopped unlocking the door every time I get in. I've repaired the lock on the passenger side rear so assuming its similar but I have run into issues trying to identify the part.

Anyone know what the part number would be? Is it the whole latch mechanism that sits in the door? I seem to remember the rear door was the full assembly. Any tips appreciated, vadis was less than useful.

Thanks!

Ok replaced the door latch mechanism, found the right part on ebay and installed. The installation was a PITA and I thought I had to remove the track for the window but finally got it pulled out using some force and put back in using maybe less force but still pretty happy when in squeezed in there. All in all about an hour, instructions for removing door panel was easy and the rest was just trying to navigate a big part in small space. Lock and unlocks as new.
Cheers!
