Close the tailgate!
To unlock the tailgate of a 1998 Volvo V70 AWD, use the key fob or the key itself to unlock the vehicle. If the tailgate is still locked, check for a manual release inside the car, typically located near the driver's seat or in the trunk area. In some cases, the tailgate might also have a secondary lock mechanism that can be disengaged by pressing the button on the dashboard or the tailgate itself. If these methods do not work, there may be an issue with the locking mechanism that requires inspection.
Buy a new one. Seriously what needs repairing in the tailgate? There are many items that can fail and need repair. Please be more specific.
To replace the tailgate struts on a Volvo V70, first, support the tailgate in the open position to prevent it from falling. Use a flathead screwdriver to carefully pry off the retaining clips or sockets that secure the old struts at both ends. Remove the old struts and then attach the new ones by fitting them into place and securing them with the clips. Finally, test the tailgate to ensure it opens and closes smoothly.
Not sure about manually but I used my key on driver side door and unlocked twice. Turn the key twice and you will hear it unlock. This popped the lock on the tailgate. When in doubt, always go to the drivers door!
