i already read the pinned thread about radio codes, i had the battery out, put the wrong code in three times, i know the right code, now the radio says "off". im really supposed to let the key stay in the on position for 2 hours to get it to let me put new code in?

Key must at least be in the "accessory" position undisturbed so the radio says "OFF" for appx. 2 hours. It will then revert to "CODE" allowing you to put the CORRECT code in.

Or you can unplug the radio...
Worked for me at least when I first got a volvo radio for the 850.

3 wrong tries with the 2 different numbers (1 on radio, 1 in glove box), unplugged put it back then called volvo to get the code. this was all within 30 minutes.
