Our Volvo had to have its antenna replaced so dear husband replaced it then
went in to check fuses...... so you all know what happened. I called the
volvo dealer with the vin and was supposedly given a 6 digit code....... my
95 has a 4 digit code so I'm not sure I even have right code now. Anyway did
the two hour bit got it to say code..... typed it in and get rPE
displayed.....so tried again rPE and again now I"m back to OFF. Anyone have
any great ideas on how to get my radio to work again? I have a 20 hour drive
awaiting me this week without a radio HELP!

Don't know what your dealer has given you but it isn't the radio coode.
As far as I'm aware Volvo codes are four digits.

If the radio has been replaced, then the code will be different from
what is recorded against the car's VIN. In this case, get the radio
code by giving the dealer the radio's serial number.
