Hi all. I just purchased my first Volvo last night. It's a 2005 XC90 2.5t FWD. I purchased from a local dodge dealer who knows nothing about Volvos. They changed the battery and now the radio no longer works. Is there a procedure that should have been followed that wasn't? According to Volvo's website I shouldn't need a code.
