About Central Locking Relays

The Volvo central locking relay is a key part of the electronic central locking mechanism on a vehicle. This system is complex, and consists of various actuators and relays. Power is sent to the Volvo central locking relay from the battery, via a fuse. The relay then sends this power to the actuator, and the actuator opens the door lock switch. To close, the polarity is reversed. The Volvo central locking relay is usually located in the driverside door behind the door trim.

Because of its position, it’s possible the Volvo central locking relay may get wet as a result of localised rust. This will cause the Volvo central locking relay to malfunction, and will need to be replaced. Other damage to the Volvo central locking relay can be caused by faulty wiring. If there is an issue with the Volvo central locking relay, or any other part of the central locking system you will be unable to operate the central locking system. This means that you will be unable to lock or unlock doors causing potential security issues. It’s therefore important to repair any central locking issues as a matter of urgency.

Volvo trivia

  • There are more than 2000 Volvo dealerships around the world, with the highest number in the US and the UK.
  • A Volvo is always good for mileage, but the holder of the world record for best mileage is the 1966 Volvo 1800S, which clocked three million miles in 2013. Owner Irvin Gordon had bought the car in 1966.
  • Volvo is a Latin word that means 'I spin,' although some later translations change the meaning slightly to 'I roll.'
  • In their first year, Volvo manufactured a very impressive 1,383 vehicles; the Type-1 truck and the PV651. Only 327 of their vehicles were exported in that first year.
  • During the 1950s, Volvo was doing so well that they started offering five-years worth of insurance with every car sale. It wasn't a long-lived campaign.
