High Compatibility:
This code retrieval method works for a wide range of car brands, including: Ford, Renault, Dacia, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Fiat, Volkswagen (VW), Nissan, Audi, Honda, Acura, Seat, Chrysler, Jeep, Mercedes, Volvo, and many popular radio models such as Blaupunkt, Becker, Alpine, 6000CD, 6006CD, SONY, 4500RDSE-O-N, 5000RDS, 3000RDS, Travelpilot, RNS MDF, Concert, Gamma, Symphony, RNS300/RNS310/RNS500/RNS510, and MF2910.
Entering Your Code:
- Press the pre-determined button (usually 1) repeatedly until the first digit of your code appears on the screen.
- Repeat this process for buttons 2, 3, and 4, entering each digit sequentially.
- Confirm your entry using the appropriate button (5, *, or > depending on your radio model; e.g., 5 for Ford 6000CD, * for Sony, > for most VW, Audi, Skoda, and Seat).
Troubleshooting SAFE/LOCKED/WAIT/ERROR Messages:
All radios have anti-theft mechanisms. Excessive incorrect code entries will result in a lockout.
- Ford: "WAIT" requires leaving the radio on for 30 minutes. "LOCKED" or "LOCKED10" may require holding button 6 for ten seconds. "LOCKED13" indicates a semi-permanent block requiring dealer assistance.
- VW (Volkswagen): "SAFE" or "SAFE2" after three incorrect attempts requires leaving the unit on for 60 minutes.
