They suggested that I only needed to wait one hour to be prompted for the code, but Bill (and the manu...

2002 s40 stereo

Couldn't find anything about anything similar through the search feature... A few days ago I got into my car and when I turned the stereo on it told me to enter a code, assumedly a security code, so I forged on an entered a generic 0000, using the 1-20 memory knob/button as instructed by the stereo....

champion RC12PYP - not the OEM, but I could not get that locally. Was told that this would do the trick. The gap was .030

Re: Problem with 2002 S40 1.9T, Auto transmission

Re: Problem with 2002 S40 1.9T, Auto transmission

Cheers.
