My 2008 Volvo XC 90 audio system went kaput. AM/ FM1/ FM 2 Tuner, 6 CD changer, & aux. input.
Looking for OEM replacement or aftermarket upgrades.

Dealers wants $1500.00 for OEM replacement, yeah right!

TIA

That price quote was probably their polite way of saying we don't want to work on it Car-part.com and get the vin. I don't know volvos, but you may need a radio code from the dealer

On the advice of our local regular favorite body shop ( 3 teen drivers, don't ask!), I went to;

Factory Repair Services
1303 Columbia Dr. Suite 201
Richardson, TX.75081
972-690-8115
Website

The unit would power up but the tuner and 6 CD changer would not work. He disconnected the battery cable from the negative terminal, waited 10 minutes and reconnected it. The FM1/FM2 band in the tuner and 6 CD changer worked fine, but the AM band was still not working. He suspects the failure of the AM band in the tuner caused a voltage drop and somehow disabled the other features of the infotainment module.

He priced buying a new replacement tuner vs. a salvaged infotainment module. The salvaged infotainment module was cheaper. He installed it in less than hour. $200.00 for the parts and labor.
