Default Control and water problems

Help
My, 2001 S60 is plagued with problems. Some time back my passenger side mirror started to adjustitself and would not stop.I removed the fuse and took it to a repair place that knows Volvos. They disconnected the wire to the mirror motor and problem stopped, so I now have to adjust by hand. No big deal.Just the outside temp guage does not work.
A year later I have these problems:
1-The controls for the sunroof do not work. Sometimes they do but mostly not.

2-I cannot roll up the back 2 passenger windows from the drivers door control.They go down but not up. The back passenger door controls do work

3-I have water in the back right rear passenger foot well. I noticed it when I heard a sloshing sound.Lots of water. No obvious source of leak.Sky light might have been ajar but no water stains on headliner.

4- Alarm service warning comes on but everything seems to be working.

Any replies much appreciated
Thanks

Yes, it sounds like a water problem but once the leak is fixed I would bet that the only thing that needs to be replaced is the driver's door module or DDM. The DDM is the thing that contains all 4 window switches, the mirror switches, and the lock/unlock button. And believe it or not, the sunroof does share a common component with the DDM. If you're looking to fix it start there. It will need to be done at a repair facility that has the capability to program the module. Post again if you get it done.
