Here comes the sun, there goes the locks S80 2001

My 01 S80 with less than 1,000 miles is no sun worshipper.

I swear the remote locks fail in direct proportion to the sun shining on the car. First light - works fine. Midday - nothing. By evening, all is OK.

My dealer must think I'm crazy. Performs flawlessly connected to the computer in his state of the art, climate controlled garage.

Has anybody run into this strange problem? OR is it a devious Volvo safety feature designed to prevent exposure to excess radiation?
