Locking rear hatch with key fob V70-XC70

My central locking works on the the four doors but does not engage the rear hatch (station Wagon).

Does any one know if the rear hatch is integrated into the central locking--seems like it should be but who knows.

Any suggestions as to how to fix it?

    Locking rear hatch with key fob V70-XC70

    yes on new shape v70's due to false hatch unlocks (pushing button by accident) volvo changed the v70 to only unlock the hatch using the hatch unlock button if pressed twice, but should unlock normally if using unlock button (button for all doors). if you have old shape v70 (with only 2 remote buttons) then hatch SHOULD unlock normaly with other doors after 1 press of button. if it doesnt there is probably a fault with the tailgate lock assembly.

    Locking rear hatch with key fob V70-XC70

    Yes, the rear hatch locks with the key fob. Unless you have used the key and left it in the always locked position? Check the lock position for the key, it should be vertical. Try locking the car and then unsing the key fob, unlock the hatch twice. If that doesn't work, then the rear panel must come off to look for a loose wire.
