1) Turn on radio
2) Type in code

Pretty simple...unless you remember it wrong 3 times :D

Any way a code can be retrieved by the on board diagnostic unit that my 95 850 turbo wagon has?

A radio code cannot be retrieved by the diagnostic unit, no. If you mean a stored diagnostic code, yes. Search for how to do this or post a request for help in the 850 forum.

Sounds like your antenna is disconnected from the radio. Do the same as I suggested to Jay, above: search for an answer for this or post a request for help in the 850 forum.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
