Door lock repair on Volvo XC70. Replacing electrical motor.
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2018
- Common problem on Volvo XC70 and other models is malfunctioning og the door locks. Instead of replacing the whole lock assembly you can repair it by just replacing the small electric motor which is way cheaper.
The spring was from a used lock assembly but the common problem is the motor itself.
This video also shows how to disconnect the glass window from its regulator also how to remove the handle and the inner door panel.
The motor is available for purchase here:

The level of detail here is amazing. Great work guys.
You just saved me a half a day.
I've done timing belt, oil change etc by myself but I don't think I would put this door lock together. With your video I actually did and to my surprise it is fixed!
The detail in this video is just superb. We've used this to do three doors on two cars (V70 and S80) and broken down step by step the daunting job becomes ok. Rather than repairing the actuator we swapped out for salvage parts, and the same motor module is used across all kinds of cars from across the mid noughties Ford family, including Volvos, Ford Mondeo and Focus. We got good results using actuators from a Range Rover, though you do need to swap over one simple component. Thanks so much for all of your hard work, and for narrating your videos in English.
Thank you for this video. It helped me to exchange the lock in my v70 for a new one (used one) :-) 2 hours of work, 2 people :-) Money saved and I know that everything is done very well.
Perfect video, I replaced the passenger side lock motor without any problem. It took me about 3 hours, i’m not the fastest I know, but I had fun doing it. Maybe because of the model year, mine is a V70 my 2012, but I didn’t need a torx 30. 25 was the largest. Спасибо большое, Евгени! I wouldn’t have been able to do without you!
I used this excellent video for my V50. Everything is exactly the same except the door panel removal but there are plenty of other videos that show that. Thank you.
Thanks, now I can fix what my local garage have tryed to fix on garantie the last 4 years. I now understand why. Very good video 👍
I’ve watched your videos for a long time. I must say that they are brilliant. You show how to repair rather than replace. Your audio description is perfect. It explains everything without going into every silly detail. Thank you. Ted, in the UK
Just wanted to add my thanks for this video, it made the replacement of the motors on both of the front doors on my XC70 very easy. If I hadn't found this video I would have probably blindly replaced the entire lock assembly.
One of the door pins/buttons was sitting lower on my car. After watching this video I assumed I'd probably find the spring missing but it was actually just the plastic button itself which had split and been forced down further onto the metal rod. It epoxied back together nicely.
I also greased my window regulaltors whilst the doors were apart, this seems to have resolved an issue I had with the windows sometimes stopping prematurely, probably because they experienced too much resistance.
My rear door was faulty. It was the same motor that was responsible, also the spring had popped off. Although process very similar, there is no need to lower the window. Thank you for your clear video on how to do everything. I'm in the UK and the part alone was almost £200. got the motors for £16 and it took me approx 2 hours to do. Thank you once again.
Hi there, Can i please ask where you bought the replacement motors from ?
Thank you.
@@JaySingh-ex6xc Hi, Did you get any information on where you bought the motors from
You the man! Thank you so much for your excellent videos regarding Volvo. No one compares to your expertise and presentation on TH-cam. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Travis, Tennessee USA
Thanks gents. Just completed this repair on the rear door of my XC70. Couldn't have done it without your video.
Would you know if there is a video of how to replace xc70(2010) door panel tabs
Great work.This guy REALLY knows about Volvo. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for making this video, it took me about 3 hours but now it works and you have saved me so much money to fix it myself.
Thanks to your video, I fixed this problem on my 2008 V70! One of the back doors, but the procedure is the same. Thank you so much!
You guys are very professional & helpful. I have a repair shop in US & am glad i found your channel!
Would you know how or how much it is to replace door panel tabs/clips my xc70 has a few loose on two doors and I rather handle ot before it gets worst
You just saved my day. Crystal clear explanations, very good tutorial ! Kudos for this one
Just done my actuators on one of my rear door. Your video was super helpful.
Many thanks 👍
Thanks for the video. I had to replace both motors on one of the rear doors of my V70. Wouldn’t have known where to start if it hadn’t have been for you guys!
I had to do this on my C6 Corvette a few years ago, and I have to say...this is way more challenging on the Volvo. With the corvette, I basically did it in a parking lot in about 10 minutes. Driver side plastic held by gator clips comes right out and the piece can be pulled from the inside without removing any screws. Then you can just swap with 1-for-1 part. But thanks for this video, saved it in case my XC70 ever has this problem.
I’ve done my right back door lock change on my S80 based on this video. Thanks for the details, it was a big help! Greetings from Hungary!
Hi Akos, did u follow the exact steps i.e. winding down window by 15cm? Thanks. And did u replace the motor also?
Thank you! Swapped out the motors on mine today following this video and all working now!
Yevgeny is the boss!
Wow, he's not only the boss but he's also very just. Check him out cleaning up after his job with the windows. That's an upright dude.
Another great DIY video!!! Very clear and helpful! THE guide, if you own a XC70 or V70 III. I have the same problem with the spring. Problem is, I don't know where to find a spare one.
Thanks! First video I found and it helped a lot. Especially the details about all the screws and knobs. In my case it was not the spring but the bigger of two motors (in Volvo V70 -13 there is one big and one small motor). I took apart the motor and it was full of grease. Removed the grease and cleaned it. Now good again. New motor ordered Ebay for 7eur but that will come in if it acts like that again in the future.
Great guide! My door handle on the outside stopped working so i followed the guide and noticed that the wire was broken, so i have to order it on monday. Thought the lockmechanism was broken so i ordered one this week and was hoping to have it fixed today. But the guide was very helpful!
This is literally the FIRST thing I ever had to fix on my P3 XC70!
Thank you guys! I changed both motors at three doors, it took me about 4 hours.Motors form aliexpress work great.
Just. Carried out the repair, mine has got key less entry so a little bit more to do. All works fine now thanks you
Excellent! I have to do this this weekend. Very informative. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.
great video, respect.keep up the good job! I did replace my front left door lock motors based on this. Only part where I got stucked a bit is putting back the lock itself. there is a little hook which must be at the right place over the body panel otherwise the lock can not be screwed back. once figured this out then it was an easy job (you need a second person to help otherwise it can be very difficult at certain steps).
kerekgyartoistvan thank you for this tip. I got stuck here as well. For further detail, this hook is actually metal and when installed correctly hooks to outside of the door lock hole. If you are working on the driver's side door and the door handle and lock are not installed, then you will see 3 holes: 2 for the door handle and one (rightmost) for the door lock cylinder. You must install the inner assembly such that a tiny metal hook/finger protrudes out of the cylinder lock hole in the door and grabs the sheet metal. If you do not do this then the assembly does not sit flush to the inside of the door and you cannot screw in the T25 screw to fasten the cylinder lock. In fact you end up stripping the outside of the guide hole and getting frustrated, only to come back to this thread hoping to find a search term that explains how you are messing up. Once you have the inner assembly flush with the door panel and the little hook/finger outside then the T25 goes straight in no problem. Thanks again kerekgyartoistvan.
This is a very good and detailed Video.
I can not see why other people put there thumb down
I am experiencing same problem on my 2009 XC70 T6, identical to yours. I noticed that the passenger side lock button does not alway go all the way down when I lock the vehicle with the remote. My temp fix is to click the lock button twice. This seems to ensure that the passenger door is locked. I purchased the rear tail light module from your friend 2 years ago. It works beautifully and makes my older XC70 look like the newer ones from the rear! If my lock finally stops working, I now have an inexpensive way to repair it.
Thanks for uploading, I just replaced my actuator on mk3 V70, rear door, quite straightforward, retrieved lock spring from bottom of door, all for £10!
Does anyone know what the diameter of the springs are and where they can be purchased?
Hello . Where did you by the motor and the spring ?
Hey! Thank you so much for your videos! You made me save lots money… still some struggle but always repaired 😊
Awesome video... Thank you for save us a lot of money!
I really like your videos. Very detailed and pedagogical.
Tack så mycke för din bra video 👍
this was a brilliant video and really helped me out of a tricky spot, even found the elusive spring so thats back in place :-) thank you PS I used this guide to help with the nearside rear passanger door on a 2011 volvo V70 and it is all pretty much the same
Many thanks for the perfect video. It was so exactly done that the door lock repair was easy to do. 😊
The clarity of volvosweden's videos is exceptional making this complex repair possible for a careful fitter. Thanks also to Forget8About8It and Benjamin for explaining how to release the rear window glass on late model V70s by pushing in tab.
Thanks for the video- I have now done a door mirror and the lock on a passenger door. On my 2015 car, when changing the lock motor i found that the glass is just clipped in- remove the speaker and feel for the plastic mould that supports the glass- if you flex it while lifting the glass it comes clear. You can then carry on as per your video. Thanks, Andrew.
Great video! Thanks Yvegeny! I just completed this on my 2010 Volvo XC60. I reckon that saved me about £500, so really appreciate you posting it.
One thing that XC60 owners may find useful is about the step for releasing the window glass from the actuator mechanism. Volvo has changed it on the XC60. Instead of two bolts there are two clips. You still access them via the two service holes with rubber covers, as in Yvegeny’s video. However, it looks very different. You need to let the window down a bit more. After you see the steel cables go down, you will be in about the right place. The bottom of the glass should be just below the bottom of the righthand service hole. Through the black metal frame that you can see through the hole there is a clip that is coming towards you through the glass. You can release the clip by pushing it gently away from you. I used a 5mm allen wrench. However, you need help at this point. You have to release both clips at the same time. So have a friend hold the glass and gently apply upwards pressure. Then line up one allen wrench (or screwdriver would likely work), on each clip, left and right. Pop them at the same time and your friend can raise up the window a bit. Then secure with tape as Yvegeny did. I could not find how to do this anywhere online, so I hope this helps a few XC60 owners. Cheers!
Thanks Paulus, the eBay link on the video is down for the motor, could you share where you got yours from? Thanks, Henry
Thank you, it helps a lot!
Thanks paulus33, the tip for the XC60 was very helpful, I had to do the front passenger door on a 2015 XC60, it is a bit different as it has keyless entry. Thanks Again✅
@@theoriginalrtrider I have same model car with the front passenger door lock not locking and according to the video the likelihood is the missing spring. What was the issue with yours please, the lock motor or the spring?
@@SS-go7yr Mine was the motors had gone and were too weak, I ended up buying a new unit which was nearly £200 Volvo part 31416678
Excellent step by step instructions. Thank you.
Cheers dude, instructions worked like a charm 👌🏽
TOP Video. Thank you so much. Gretings from Germany
Excellent instructional video. Well done.
Great video. I have XC70 with keyless go. It's more complicated to disassemble the cable. But its works :)
Thanks a lot to Evgeniy!!!
Thank you for the video guys, it helped me a lot!
I have the key-less system which makes the disassembly a little more complicated as there are more wires connected to the unit. Otherwise, it's the same procedure.
Nice infomative video !
Thanx guys !
Like your videos a lot !
Excellent video. Good close ups. Really well explained. Money saving tips. Well done. I have a 2009 V70 and this issue has occurred. Gives me some good guidance and some confidence. Thank you gents. Do you have a video on replacement of the drivers side headlight pop up washer/ motor?
Like always Perfect Video, thanks! 👍
Great job. I just got this malfunction in the back door
Kiitos Evgenyi!
شكرا جزيلا لكم و على جهودكم و للكل الفيديوهات انا بنسا لس قد استفد كثيرا من المحتوى للتصليح سيارتي الفولفو . شكرا لك
Same problem in my volvo xc70, it been 3 days and i'm using my car key to close the door, very interesting demonstration but to complicated for me to do it
You are a star. Thank you again!
I did this job a few years ago thanks to a forum guide. Maybe I wasn't taking my time but I messed up a lot of small parts so from my experience:
a) don't leave the door lock pin hanging like that, it's still only held on by plastic and on my lock it broke.
b) when he says "don't overtighten" the mechanism that holds the glass, really don't. I overtightened mine (without realizing it, because this was 4 years ago and I'm an idiot) and stripped the threads. Had to buy a salvage yard new window mechanism and redo this whole job more or less.
c) be careful with bit-tools when putting them in holes to the innards of the door. I managed to have bits get caught when pulling the tool out from within the door and had to re-disassemble the door 2-3 times.
Just some tips. I think I just had a bad day, it's not that hard, but can be a bit finicky here and there.
Good tips! Too bad I didn’t read them beforehand lol. Fortunately I didn’t have the same issues but I did have to reassemble several times. My issue with the window was I didn’t tighten them enough! I put the rest of the door back together only to have the window separate from the runners lol.
Excelente trabajo.. Saludos cordiales desde Patagonia Chile
Very good! very helpful! thank you!
Great video!
Love the channel!
Excellent video
What a fantastic video,i just spend more then half day on the same door, try to repair the lock,use to lock but not unlock,after all that work my lock is unlocking but not locking other way around.dont know why.
I can only say ---> GREAT , did repair on my VOLVO s80 !!!
Great video!Thank you!!
Great Video!
Great video! I used this to diagnose an exterior door handle that stopped working. All I found was a pin and spring had fallen out of the latch mechanism. It’s my teen’s car and I suspect he is just abusive with it.
You are the best 👍🏼
Thank you so much for this very useful video, which made me successfully change this electrical motor. I must however precise 2 things :
1/ these 3 fucking plastic locks you must push inside the door are very very fragile, and almost impossible to replace correctly when you put the inner panel back.
2/ on my 2011 XC70, the inner of the last box, where the engine takes place, is a little different. I have only one motor (the big one), and actually it is easier to take it out than in the video. So don't panic !
Thanks, helpful information, door now works 👍
The video is again, as always, just precise and neat as a surgery! Wow! Any late info on the serial of the motors to replace. The link in bio to Ebay is no longer working. Thanks a million! Hugs
Beautiful Done Thanks.
Very useful video
Can you advise an updated link to purchase the spring and motor please. Also many thanks for another great video that will help many owners of the V70 and XC 70
Very thanks for this video,Efgeny and you. I Like you Channel for you good Information how to repair my V70 for any problems. I safe a lot of money. Thank you
Hello, and thanks for a good video👍
One question, where can i buy the spring? I have search for it here in sweden but not find it😰 can you help me?
I have the same problem in my S80.Thank you.
Top demonstrate 👍
do you have a video to show how to fix where the drivers window wont raise properly? i think its the regulator but can only find mk2 videos on how to locate them. would i need to remove the inner panel to access? thanks
good job!
Rear Door - your instructions also work ok for a 2007 S80 rear door, but releasing the wiring harness was even more difficult. I'm a former engineer/prototype technician and for me, the repair process was difficult, but worth the savings.
Remove the door handle and disconnect its wiring before removing the metal panel. Other videos show this in more detail.
Get a sturdy box to support the metal door panel as you disconnect the multitude of wiring connector puzzles. Otherwise, the heavy metal panel will hang from the wires over many sharp metal edges. I cut some wires because of this.
I had trouble finding the 3rd retaining clip inside the door, so I removed the plastic reinforcement in the bottom of the door and found the $#%^% spring! I reinstalled the spring, but it fell out again very easily. Very poor engineering from Ford/Volvo. I drilled a small hole into the black plastic and riveted in a custom retainer plate to keep the spring in place.
My repair shop quoted $680 to repair the lazy lock. I almost bought a new lock motor assembly for $208. After watching this video, I bought the motor only for $13. The real problem was the $0.02 spring designed to fall off. This is my first and soon-to-be last Volvo.
Thanks so much for the detailed video. You saved many people a lot of money.
Thank you so much! I finally found it under the plastic reinforcement, you really saved my day! :)
Did you know that you do not have to buy new motors? Simply open them, clean rotor contacts, assemble and you're done! Good luck!
Hi,
Are you sure of that ? Because I have this issue on my rear left door.
Just cleaning the electrical motor ?
Thanks
@@Onizula How did it go?
@@arthursbarf hi. It went well. The tricky part is with the window, to get it up. There is a hook that holds the window to lift it up and down. First you have to remove the speaker to access the hook and release the window. And from there this is pretty much the same as for the front door procedure. And I replace the motor, to be sure. Do you have this issue ?
@@Onizula Kind of, but I have a xc90 - sure it is the same - but mainly in cold weather it fails. Thanks for you q reply :)
@@Onizula my 2008 has the same intermittent locking issue (on the drivers side) in the wintertime. But when it does this, the power to the door is also malfunctioning. I’m unable to roll any of the windows down with the switches on the door panel, and also when locking the car with the key fob, the drivers side (front and back) do not lock and the exterior lights do not flash.
Do you think this is the same problem? Or is my issue something electrical?
If keyless vehicle option is fitted isn’t there a cable to deal with on outside handle for the black lock button on handle?
Where can i buy or find the little motor to the lock in the video? I have the same trouble on my 2012 Volvo. Thanks
I have a S60 2012 and those 3 triangle placed tabs are covered on the panel. I can't push in those plastic three pins to remove the inner panel... I also brought the window down 15cm but I can't see any bolts in the large two holes, just plastic holding the window
Hi,I'm getting a very loud rattling sound on my XC60 engine when I start it in the morning and it goes off after 30sec probably when the oil lubricates it but the rattling sound is loud when you accelerate it. Could it be the sound of a loose timing chain? Is it a difficult fix. Thanks
Thanks guys! I have the driver's "Door Open" warning displaying, and I presume that the microswitch that you pulled out could be at fault?
Is this a common problem?
Man it looks easy but I will fck it up big time knowing me... 😂🙏🏻-- I will go to VOLVO if it evers happens. Thank u for sharing...the vid is very clear. Respect
Both of my kids have xc70s. My daughter has one for her first car. I just had to replace the fuel door actuator and videod it on both.
Great demonstration and explanation. It does however, looks an awful lots of work. olvo should correct it's mistake and put a reliable motor in every car.
Hi, excellent explanation :). I replaced the motor and all works fine. But I did not have any spring there. It must have got lost. Do you know where it's possible to buy it? Original or from any other car using the same sprig. Thanks.
Hi Another great video, my window won't go up and down seems like one side of the regulator has broken. Any advice what to buy?
Thanks fore another great video! I recently changed the door mechanism on passenger seat rear left hand side. Had the same problem! If i had this video earlier it would go a lot faster. Better late then ever at all. Keep up with this good stuff!! Have a V70 diesel D4 2013 btw. Looking forward to next video.
Hi. I just tried to do the same yesterday on my XC70 2015 and I had to give up not being able to free the inner panel from the window glass. Simmilar two large service holes (but not horizontally aligned) are there as well but there is no way to access any screws behind in any window position. How did you do it?
@@Forget8About8It open those two holes and drive the window elevator down and up until you can se the fastner to the glas in the hole. Then unclip the window glas threw the hole and lift it up by hand and fasten it with painters tejp to the frame. Then detache the cabels from the innerpanel. Then follow volvoswedens fabulous video! Good luck!
@@Benjamin-gd6yh Does your panel look like this as well (see linked pictures)? VIDA shows fully different panel for my VIN, I am confused. drive.google.com/open?id=1nDgDHhdoSK1urLcVelc1UuIdQ5cT3WD5, drive.google.com/open?id=1YvzYPDAsfOd-7VDW33IruqXKojRtdjsW
Thanks for this video! Helped me with fixing window regulator. Much appreciated!
Thansk for video. I have issue with both rear back doors on my Volvo V40 D2 2013 Mod. I can't open it from both side. I have checked all fuse with no problems. What can I do to open it up and what do you think is the issue?
Do you have a video on the rear locking latch? Like my XC70 doesn’t pull it close
Great videos of this proceedure. You guys cover it all , it is so well done. However, do you have a video of the rear door proceedure with keyless entry ? I realize these are repairs to ypur cars but have you videoed a 2008 Volvo XC70 rear door accuator reapair ? I'm having issues with mine.
updated questions. this morning when going to get out of my XC70 the door failed to open, and the handle doesn't seem to be clicking any more. so i had to crawl out through the right side door, and the handle on the outside will not open the door either. did something break on the inside?
