Radio is 'OFF' Reply Subscribe Thread Tools Search this Thread Feb 24, 2011 | 03:27 PM Share Share Options #1 Coopercrispy Thread Starter | Junior Member Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 1 Likes: 0 Radio is 'OFF' I recently had the battery replaced in my 2002 S 40. When I turned the radio (HU -615) on, it prompted me to enter a code. I tried two I found on the web, but neither worked and the radio now will only say 'OFF'. How do I get my radio back 'online'? Thanks!

Then you need to get the code from the dealer for you car. Every radio has its own unique code. Reply 0 0 fcpgroton View Public Profile Visit fcpgroton's homepage!

So it can stay up to 30mins Reply 0 0 Innocent View Public Profile Send a private message to Innocent Find all posts by Innocent Dec 9, 2022 | 05:40 PM Share Share Options #8 hoonk Senior Member Joined: Jul 2020 Posts: 5,079 Likes: 665 From: GA Quote: Originally Posted by Innocent but leaving the ignition on, the fan runs and my car battery drained Yes if the key is in the ignition position (2nd) your battery will go dead. Turn the key to the first position, the accessory position. Turn the climate system, wipers and lights off. Turn the radio on. OFF is displayed (and the radio will be the only thing using current) After 2 hours, (not 1) off will change to code. Then enter the correct code. The code might be written on top of the radio. To get the code from Volvo you will need the information on top of the radio anyway. It is possible that Volvo has the code by your VIN number - as long as it's still the original radio.
