Default 850 turbo - 03-02-2009 , 02:05 PM





I recently picked up cheap a 1995 850 turbo wagon. The battery was dead
after sitting since October. I threw a quick charge into the battery and it
started right up. Runs great. Radio asks for a code before it will work.
There is no owner's manual and the old owner has passed without leaving the
code in her last will and testament.

Is a dealer going to charge me mega bucks to find the code?

Thanks,
OUS

Thanks Glenn.
