I recently purchased a 2000 s80 model without the remote lock access key (didnt know even had 1) and now I am having a central locking system problem. It doesnt seem to work using the drivers side door control which means my fuel door will not open. I am about to run outta gas and it still wont open. Is there a way I can open this door so I cna put some gas in my car
Thanks
SOURCE: using the remote or the door lock inside the car not working
remove the door panels and give everything in sight a good squirt of engine oil in a proper oil can .DO NOT USE THAT SPRAY FISH OIL STUFF ,wd40

I had a similar problem w
recently bought 2003 S80.Several points: 1) Access your locking selonoid
through the trunk interior panel ... loosen a few hex bolts and slide
out for maintenance; 2) I fixed my lock by simply using light
teflon-based oil (like for bike chains). I exercised it a few times and
it works beautifully; 3) Not sure on your model, but gas door on the '03
unlocks when you push the associated release button under the headlight
control switch. It is not designed to unlock w the key (again, check
owners manual for your year). Hope this helps.

the fuel door on my 2000 S80 is connected with the door locks. In order
for it to open you have to unlock all the doors to the car.

Guys,
I removed the locking mechanism and applied a little silicon graphite
and now it works like a charm.
