S40 2.0 euro 4 - passenger side doors locked and won't open
Hi
S40 2005 I've seen a few posts with the same problem i have. My passenger doors (front and back) are both locked and won't react to the central locking, i've tried to open the doors from the inside but they won't budge. I have seen that you need to be able to get to the lock mechanism which means taking the door panel off, how do you do this though? Please help, i'm about to take a hammer to the doors!!.... any help would be welcome |

you have to go through the settings in your car its below the radio you can set the doors to open all at once or in turn , or set the alarm lighting and home safe timings etc ..

Press "Menu" and check door lock settings or reset defaults.

opening locked doors
I had the same problem, go to the door where it meets the wing, half way up the door where the wiring loom joins together come in 3" and thump the door hard with your hand then try keys keep doing this, i promise it works. Once opened go into menu and take car off autolock, disconnect wiring loom and spray with grease. Hope you get this before you damage yor car and are left with bill goodluck chum

The mechanic who has the car said that the deadbolts have armed and that there's no way to open the doors other than to bust the locks!!
This has been a pain in the derriere!!!! |

Oh yes!! My V50 decided that on Saturday afternoon the passenger doors were to be locked until sufficient inconvenience had been caused! The issue vanished this morning on the way to work. This is now the 3rd time the car will be going back to the dealers I bought it from for investigation.
