Frequently asked questions about Volvo radio codes
Why is my Volvo asking for a radio code?▾
The anti-theft protection of your Volvo car radio activates automatically whenever the power supply is interrupted, for example after a battery change. You need the original security code to unlock the radio.
Where do I find the serial number of my Volvo radio?▾
The serial number is on a sticker on the side or back of the radio unit. You usually need to slide the radio out briefly to see it. The number consists of a series of letters and digits.
How do I enter the radio code on my Volvo?▾
Switch on the ignition so the radio shows ‘CODE’. Use the preset buttons (1-2-3-4) to set each digit, then confirm with the OK or seek button. Note: after too many wrong attempts the radio locks temporarily.
