S90 Fuel Flap Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2016 Volvo S90 hybrid is experiencing a fuel filler flap release issue, where the flap won't lock or unlock, and some vehicle functions are unavailable. The problem may be linked to a defective linkage or an electrical issue within the release mechanism. A workshop visit confirmed the linkage was defective, and the repair resolved the issue.
Did this summary help you solve your problem?

Thanks. I didn't see any other issues besides some functions becoming unavailable, generally. I didn't write down the error message, unfortunately. Do you know what the likely cause was in your case?

Yes, mine was definitely a linkage issue, or something electrical within the release mechanism itself. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. They’ll be able to diagnose it properly and give you a definitive answer.

Thanks for the recommendation. I visited a workshop today. The repair cost was 210€. Apparently, the linkage was indeed defective. I appreciate the help.

I had a similar problem with my S90. Couldn't get the fuel flap open. Did you also notice any issues with other electrical components, like the trunk release? What does the error message say exactly?
