S60 door lock malfunction

Doors on my 2007 Volvo S60 with gasoline engine won't lock or unlock. Mileage is 161803 km. Suspect a faulty door contact signal. Anyone else run into this? Thinking it's a cable or plug connection issue.

I had a similar issue with my S60. Sounds like what happened to me. Automatic locks going haywire like that. Did you check the car sensor? Could be a sign of something bigger, like a fuse problem. But it could also be a short circuit in the door latch.

Thanks. How did you fix yours? Was it definitely a cable problem, or something else entirely? I want to make sure I'm looking in the right place before I tear everything apart.

I ended up taking mine to a workshop. They found a defective cable or plug connection, just as you suspected. Cost me around 95€. Honestly, for the hassle, it was worth it. Sometimes it's better to let professionals handle it. Could be that the door latch is broken, too.

Okay, thanks! I appreciate the advice. I was able to fix it at the workshop like you mentioned. It was a defective cable connection, and the repair cost was indeed around 95€. I'm glad to have the issue resolved!
