Tailgate will not open on Volvo V50 T5. Fixed.

[@excellentinterior567]

Yari? Thank you so much for such a simple video. You saved my life man.

[@AzizKorsan]

The same thing happened to my V50, 2 years apart. The micro switch is broken because it gets water. When I last changed it, I insulated it with silicone between the part where the bulb and switch are connected and the trunk lid. As a result, it has not broken down for 5 years :)

An other tuto clean and simple. Thank you Yuri,

[@christianhade5553]

Excellent video Yuri! I have a 2016 XC 60 and the switch works fine. It’s when you pushed on the latch upwards the contact doesn’t seem to happen anymore but the switch and the actuators all were fine when I takeoff that cover like you have. Any suggestions?

[@hanslemmen9492]

Have you considered upgrading the cluster on the v50 to the blue r design one?

[@andrewriley5858]

Hi, great job, do the LED lamps also fit the XC70? I have tried LED bulbs in the standard lamps and the don’t last

[@volvosweden]

Will fit. I have the same on XC70 good quality

[@richteryachting]

Thank you for good information!!

Great videos ... appreciate all the great information and hands on tutorials ..... I have a question for you .... I have a 2012 S60 T6 and I am considering gifting it to my daughter who is in the USA .... Volvo wants USD1,000 for a clearance letter (crazy money grab) .... nevertheless, I suspect the only difference between the Canadian and US version of the car (other than KMs vs Miles) is that the US car had a TPMS and if that is the case, they may require me to install that to be able to comply with US DOT requirements. Have you or do you know anyone who has ever installed a TPMS on a Canadian Volvo .... trying to understand if it's a big issue or simply everything is already set other than placing new valves and trigger the software ....thanks.

My v60 tailgate completely can't open whither is key fob or handle switch button or the button in the car. Anyone have any opinion Please And Thanks!

[@alexolender1131]

good job

[@karolzabielski]

In my xc60 2015 this button also does not work. Looks identical to the V50. I tried to repair it and when it is disassembled it works every time. After assembly it stops working. I've tried to repair it 3 times and it always works when it's disassembled....😢

[@volvosweden]

Get a new one

[@karolzabielski]

@@volvosweden I checked on the Internet and the switches in the v50 and xc60 look identical. After disassembly, the switch works every time. After assembly, it rarely works. That's why I wonder what's damaged. Maybe a cable on the plugs? Ground?

[@aliis4941]

Same problem

[@AUXITOLED]

By any chance invite you to do a product review, We just emailed for inquiry.

[@volvosweden]

Will check it out!

[@ole-johnnywerner4350]

V50 is not a Volvo.

[@volvosweden]

That’s partly true unfortunately
