If I recall the radio locks itself after 3 wrong codes are entered. Disconnect the car battery, or the radio itself and plug it back in after a few minutes. I should then ask for a code when you press the power button.

its something to do with it starting. check the acceleration sensor and fuel pressure,

You will need to take the vehicle to someone with an OBDII scanner. They can retrieve the code(s) and get some idea what could be wrong.

You have a broken odometer gear wheel which is very delicate and hard to change it cost less than fifty bucks but it will take a volvo expert one hour or more to change if your not volvo acquinted dont attempt to fix it.you will mess the dash board

usually if the vehicle has been sitting for a while you might have to bleed the brake system for it un-seize. If you have been running it all the time I wouldn't be able to tell you because I have never dealt with a system freezing up during normal use.

Call the manufacturers 1800 # or call the dealer you bought the car from and give them the VIN and sometimes they want the serial # off of the radio.

By pushing down on the hood while releasing, it may relieve some pressure, if that is what is preventing release. If that does not help, then you may have to pry up the side that is opening, and see if more pressure helps? If that does not work, then you may have to try to reach in with a long rod to manipulate the release. I don't know exactly what it looks like, so can't describe exactly what to do. So I would suggest going to a used Volvo car lot and taking a look at on that year, that does work.
