Keyless Remote for S70 from eBay

If you buy them on Ebay - or anywhere else for that matter - they will need to be programmed to work with you car. You will need to get a dealer to do that. Find out how much they charge - you'll probably be better off getting them to supply the remotes as well!

I bought one on ebay for my 96 960 from keyless ride and it came with programming instructions that were very easy to follow. (turn key from off to on without starting car

5 times in ten seconds then hit a button on the remote.) It is probably similar for your car. I would reccomend keyless ride as a seller I was very pleased witht he whole process. It cost me $44 total with shipping for my remote. The Volvo dealer quoted me around $250 for a remote and programming. grees

This is for all 1999-2000 S/V 70's The dealership has to order software, load into the car to tell it to program the new or used remote. There will be a charge for software. There will be a labor charge. There will be the price of the part charge where ever you get the remote. You are taking a chance if the used remote works or not. The new remote comes with a 1 year warranty. Have the dealership remove all of the old stored remotes from the car. It will hold either 3 or 6 remote positions, can't remember.

-------

You can not program a used remote for any S80 or 2001 up S60, V70. There is a 8 pin and a 16 pin code that comes with each new remote that is manually entered at the time of programming a new remote. The 8/16 pin code gets thrown away after programming. There is no way to track the pin code for a used remote.

Hi I've searched through the answers in this forum and I'm a little confused and I'm hoping that someone an clear things up for me. I just bought a used 2000 S70 with a single key and no remotes. The dealers in my area charge $100 each and I need at least two so I'm looking to eBay.

I see that some people have mentioned that I need to make sure that I have a PIN for the remote and I've contacted a few of the sellers selling these remotes and none of them have it or seem to know what I'm talking about. Since there is no existing remote, is this a concern, or have I misunderstood something?

There are lots of different remotes across the years, and even in the same model year depending on whether you have an alarm or not. Get one that matches the part number on your existing remote. (The remote for my '98 has 9166200 on it) You need the alarm PIN, which is available from a Volvo Dealer You need a Volvo System Tester, which a dealer should have, and often Volvo independents have one as well. You need to have all your remotes on hand, as the process erases all old remotes and the system needs to relearn them, IIRC.
