There is no activation code from Volvo, but from individual radio manufacturers.
There were many different brands of radio installed in Volvo cars that year, and not only does each brand differ, but each radio has a unique code.
What you should do first is look in the owners manual, because it should have been written down.
If not, then you need to go to some place that sells that brand of radio, and have the code in it changed. They can't tell you the old code, but they can tell you the new one.
It is supposed to be free, as long as you can show ownership.
Your car has a special 4 digit code It is able to be reset at a Volvo dealer. They will reflash the radio code and give you a copy. Mine was that way and now I don't have problem. For steps in putting the code in look in your owners manual
You have to take it to a Volvo dealer. They can look up the code in their database. Each radio has a unique code based on the serial number of the radio.
I have a radio code by Volvo Model:volvo-vr100 Serial:89FFLZM172700133 Please help quickly and thank you
I reset mine by removing the radio fuse and leaving it out for 3 hours before reinserting it. After reinserting the radio fuse, the radio will then accept your code unique to your radio.
For radio you mean? You need serial number of radio, registration, ID (prove you own it) and either go to dealer or one of the pay-sites that will give you the code for $29
most dealers will give you the code for free.the Volvo dealer I work for does
The code for a Volvo 940 radio is typically a four-digit security code that is unique to each vehicle's radio system. If you've lost the code, you can retrieve it by checking the owner's manual, contacting a Volvo dealership, or using the radio's serial number through certain online services. It's important to keep this code safe, as it may be required if the radio is disconnected from power.
Go to the fuse box at the driver's side and remove the radio fuse for 3 hours then replace.
Leave the radio turned on in this condition for several hours. Then enter a proper security code for your radio. If you don't have the code, you will need to contact a Volvo dealer.

I reset my be removing the radio fuse from the fuse box to the left of the instrumentation panel, and then replacing it 3 hours later. It would then accept the code unique to my radio.
