Hi I read your thread and I am having trouble understanding what you said about turning the ignition on and off 5 times to program the remote. If you could explain the procedure to me I would greatly appreciate it. I have a S-60 and the remote used to work and now it doesn't. I have replaced the battery still no results. Volvo dealer tried to tell me it was not the remote for the car and tried to sell me one for $200. I have looked at the ones on ebay, in the US they average around $25, but on the Canada ebay site they are as low as $6 and ashigh as $100 dollars. I have also read ebay reviews and they said do not buy because it does not have the 16 digit PIN number. I don't know what to do so any help will be appreciated. Thanks mstrplmber
