02 V70 wagon. Radio will not turn on

RJL · Post by **RJL** » 30 Jan 2005, 21:43

Friday evening I drove the car with the radio on. Saturday started the car and the radio was off. Tried to turn on but would not turn on. Changed "audio system" fuses inside car. Checked the owner's manual and it didn't appear any other specific "audio" or "radio" related fuses were listed.

Am I missing something, is there another fuse I should replace?

Thanks for any help.

try opening the dash by taking out the deck, DONT DISSCONNECT IT THOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that would mean you have to enter a code that you need to get from the factory and its a big hasstle, make sure the connectors in the back of the deck are fully connected, other than that if your not technically savvy then take it to the factory and have them check it out

Public Service Announcement:

If your radio loses power it goes into an anti-theft protective mode that requires a 4-digit code.

You can get the code from the radio code card that came with your Volvo. Failing that, you can get the code from the dealer with the car's VIN #. Failing that, you should get the serial # off the radio itself and call the dealer with that.

Then the factory, although I wouldn't have a clue as to how to contact it or who to speak to, or how to speak to them since they speak Swedish
