Update: I've checked all fuses again just to make sure. I pulled a few OBDII plugs from 99 v70s at local junkyards, and still nothing. The code reader is getting power, but the data link cannot be established.

I've tried 4 different code readers, three different OBDII plugs/pigtail wires in the center console. Nothing.

Could it be the ECU itself in the engine compartment? Or am I possibly looking at a full wiring harness replacement?

Bumped thread for you, T.

See the induction failure thread I bumped, too.

We need friends in RI to watch that PnP for us - only one in Northeast.
