Volvo Alarm Remote - Genuine Volvo 8685150

Product Information

A keyless entry transmitter (often called a key fob or remote) is a handheld device that wirelessly communicates with a vehicle’s receiver to lock, unlock, or sometimes start the engine remotely. It uses radio frequency signals to provide convenience and added security, often integrating features like panic alarms, trunk release, or remote start. A functioning transmitter ensures easy access and improved vehicle safety.

• No response from the vehicle, due to a dead battery or faulty transmitter.
• Intermittent operation, where functions work inconsistently.
• Reduced range or weak signal, often caused by internal electronic issues or interference.

About Genuine Volvo

The original parts used by Volvo to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Volvo” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Volvo, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Volvo Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Volvo are not necessarily manufactured by Volvo. No cause for concern, as Volvo designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Volvo for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Volvo parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Volvo logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
