C30 Keyless Entry Fault

I'm having an electrical issue with my 2007 Volvo C30, gasoline engine, 47281 km. The keyless access isn't working, and there's an error stored. I think it's a bad cable or plug connection in the door handle. Anyone else seen this?

Summary of the thread

A 2007 Volvo C30 owner is experiencing a keyless entry fault, suspecting a bad cable or plug connection in the door handle. Another C30 owner suggests checking the electrics inside the door handle, specifically the sensor that detects when the door is opened. The issue was confirmed through a diagnostic, and the owner decided to have it repaired at a workshop.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

Sounds familiar. I've got a C30 too, and had weird electrical gremlins with the doors. Keyless entry packed in, just like you're saying. Did you check the door switch? That was my first thought when it happened to me.

Thank you. Could you explain 'door switch'? Are you referring to the physical switch inside the car, or something else in the door mechanism? I'm trying to understand where it is and what it does.

Sorry, should have been clearer. I meant the electrics inside the door handle itself – the sensor that tells the car the door's being opened. To be honest, tracking down the exact fault was a pain. Ended up just taking it to a workshop. Saved me a load of hassle.

Thanks. It sounds like a workshop is the way to go. I had a diagnostic performed and the defective cable/plug connection was confirmed. The total expenditure came to 95€ . Thank you again.
