Hu850 radio
My radio has stopped working, it's a HU850, the display is ok all the functions seem to work just not volume, every now and again the radio will work but on full volume for a few seconds even if its switched off. Can this be repaired or should i look to replace it. fitted to a v70 2005/6 car.
I have seen other model radios on ebay and wonder if they will fit and work (All prefixed with HU 811,803, 801, 650 and so on. Help please John. |

Never used them, and they seem costly, but this eBay trader repairs Volvo head units:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-HU85...ZPqkX58eAX2jcA Some on here have said the head units are coded to the car, others have changed head units with no problems, I'd probably go for a decent after-market up to date double DIN unit, unless you want to retain originality. Your HU-850 probably has the under-seat amplifier too, you'd need to bypass this wiring if going after-market.

Advice
Hi,
Had problems with my HU-850, it wouldn't pick up FM. There's a company called Central Services, based in Manningtree (look them up on google) that could repair mine. Although I replaced it with a aftermarket system, which I'm now selling (as i was given another HU-850). My aftermarket set up is on eBay item number 262100212173 Hope this helps. |

They look great though and there are quite a few demo vids on YouTube. Just search Bluepower Volvo.

HU850 Replacement
Hi all, just a quick note, I have took the plunge and purchased a HU650 as a replacement for my HU850 and although the 650 is a single cd unit it works just fine.
