Apparently you have to go to the local VOLVO STEALER mate. I've that pleasure to face myself at some point. My fob is goosed and I dread wearin' out the ONE key slot on the drivers door! Why no passaenger key slot is beyond me! Ho Hum!
I believe it's about £50 to £60 to reprogram the bleeders and around £20 on Ebay for a fob? Less is a good price apparently. |

phase2's require a new fob with the code on packaging to add it to the car. ones from ebay/ 2nd hand are useless unless you need new cosmetic parts

i think the dealer is mistaken as there are loads of identical fobs for sale 2nd hand and surely this means they can be reprogrammed my fob is a basic 2 button one with lock/unlock which sets and resets the alarm/immobiliser as well as the locking |

2000 model was a phase 1 but its electrics are pratically phase 2 which is why a 2nd hand one cant be programmed. phase 2's came in around sept 2000 and are 2001 model onwards

from what i remember although i could be wrong, they have to connect the car to the central volvo server is sweden to do it. i've seen salvage places selling fobs with the control module and they say its plug and play.i havn't tried it but if it works might be cheaper?
