Hi,
We have a 2000 V70 with a tailgate lock that only works sometimes
with the remote. Cooler weather (San Francisco area) makes it worse. The
remote works all the other locks fine and the manual lock (key) on the
tailgate locks and unlocks the tailgate. When the remote does not work,
there is no sound coming from the tailgate or anywhere else that I can
hear.

Any ideas one and all? Thanks, Brad

Try replacing the battery in the remote. My 2000 S80 was exhibiting
the same problem with the trunk lid. A $2.00 battery solved it.
