Can anybody point me in the right direction to locate the tailgate light
switch. I am finding that I shut the tailgate but the boot light and
warning light remain on, this also stops the alarm from arming properly as
it thinks the boot is open. I can't see where the switch is and the Haynes
manual tells me nothing.

Thanks

I had the same problem on my '98 V70. As it was under warranty at the time I
had the dealer look at it. They changed the whole tailgate locking mechanism as
the switch is apparently buried within it. I have seen other reports of the
problem on this newsgroup.

Thanks I will see what Volvo say, unfortunatly I think I'm outside warranty,
never mind.
