Most likely a damaged wiring loom, very common problem. Have a look here. https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showt...ot+wiring+loom

Yours sounds similar to mine when it went. Had boot lid open message on dash. Boot wouldn't open when engine on but would open with engine off. I also had no boot light which at first I put down to bulb. Was two split wires which were in the black tube going from car to boot lid. I just soldered two new pieces of wire in and light worked and no more issues with message or lock.
