Radio issue C70

nigel335 · Jun 21st, 2019, 20:41

I have just bought a C70 08 plate . I am getting nothing from AM frequency but FM stations are fine and clear.
When it is on AM frequency there is just silence not even back ground noise.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received

Yep, common problem and the same happened to my 08 C70. Seems Volvo can't build a decent AM radio. Apparently only fix is change the whole unit.

As they have been volvo radio experts for at least 48 years , they used to be Volvo Uk's radio reconditioners , many years ago i remember walking past the shop which gave the impression of a converted house , good to see have they have grown today . It seems they have moved from spring road ...
