put a battery charger on the battery,turn key to on postion[engine not running] turn radio to on and let it sit there like that for about 5 hours or untill radio say code then enter right code. if battery goes dead during this you have to dtart over
You need to leave the key in the ignition in position I (accessory) for two hours, after that it will say code and you can input the code. The radio switches to "OFF" after three failed attempts with the wrong code. If you dont have the code call the dealership with your VIN and they can give it to you.
Only thing you can do is wait. Turn on the ingnition (position II) for a while (can be anything from 10 minutes to four hours) and wait until the radio is asking the code again.
Look in the manual for the code - usually someone has written it in there. If not, call the nearest Volvo dealership and give them the VIN - they can tell you what your code is. Then, with the engine off, turn the key to the "I" position (Roman numeral one) and leave it for at least 4 hours. The radio should then read "Code. and you can enter the 4 digit number! Good Luck!
You have to put the battery on a charger and leave the key turned to the accessory position, meaning the car is not running but the radio still displays off. You will have to wait approximately 50 minutes to 2 hours till the word "code" is displayed.Once that has occured, you can put in your code and it will work. Or you can drive around for that length of time until it says code and you will input the correct code and you radio will work. I did this on a long trip.
on a lot of car radios after inserting the wrong code several (3) times
they lock you out the only solution is to contact the main dealer who can check it from your chassis number . unfortunately they charge for this service. the other option is a radio specialist who can put a new code in not always possible in all cases.if this is helpful let us know
Did u change the spark plug wires or just take them off and put them back on? How did the car run before u did this? What engine and mileage? Is it possible u put the wires back on in the wrong order (this would make it shake, and run poorly).
