ACK!! Another remote problem... anyone wanna swap FOB w/ me?

Apr 02, 2004 4 Replies

I have a '96 850 Turbo wagon. Manufacture date is in '95. I purchased an FOB on eBay. They indicated that it should work with my car, however it does not. It does not look like the one that does work, which I came by from someone off this forum (Thank you, Gameplayer!!).



I paid $45.52 + s/h for this thing that doesn't work for me. It does not have any numbers on the back, but it is stamped w/ 'volvo' so I know it's legit. You can view it here:

I can just go on eBayand buy another one (or sell this one), but I thought I'd check hereto see if anyone was in a similar predicament as I'm in. I need theone that has P/N: 9148646. email me at snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com if you have the remote I need and you want to swap.



Thanks!

Looks a lot like the one I use on my 850.. but $45 is just $5-10 below the dealer-price here in norway.

(my fob actually has the lock/unlock on one button and panic on the other)

Pardon my ignorance...

I thought that they needed to be code-matched to the car? Otherwise every Volvo > I have a '96 850 Turbo wagon. Manufacture date is in '95. I purchased

You program the car to only listen to up to five remotes :)
