Default C70 1999 inside lights and alarm

Hi!

I've have some problems with my inside lights. They keep
lightning even if I close the doors and also alarm go on if
I close the doors from remote control. When I close doors manually
with the key alarm doesn't go on but still inside lights keep running.

Of course now I've been taking every inside bulbs off.

Any ideas how to fixit without buying new locks to doors?

Joni

Door switches are inside the lock. One lock in Finland cost 291€ each. Is there any other way to fix it?

Default I found out the problem my self

The counterpiece was well-worn so I put some duct tape on that part which you see on picture. Then the central locking, alarm and inner lights is working fine. That´s only temporary solution and I order new parts from Volvo. Only 7,55€/one door including plastic and metal parts which you see on pictures.

Thanks to everyone and hope that my discover helps some one else
