Hi,

The ignition lock has broken. You have to order the part from Volvo. They will need your Vehicle ID number. I had to replace mine in my V70.. The lock came from Sweden .. It took me 7 days to get the part. It can take 7 to 10 business days or more to get the ign lock from Volvo.

Volvo has to key code the new part for your car.

Thanks for your question.. Jim
