2008 XC70 Battery Replacement - Proper Procedure

Post by pseudopierre »

Hi,

Does anyone know the proper procedure to replace the battery? I have a 2008 XC70 that needs a new battery. The replacement itself is pretty straight forward but it is really hard to find info on proper procedure and whether or not you need a radio code. If anyone knows or has a link, please let me know. Thanks.

You need to add a second 12v source of power before you disconnect the battery to avoid a number of power out issues.

just wait 3minutes before remove, put the new one , you don't need a code for the radio
on some model you need to adjust time and reset automatic windows
