    I've just tried that and it didn't work

    Try 2466

    Hi I have managed to blow a fuse (in more ways than one) as I have no code for my 5000 rds ford stereo, the serial no is M018835, if you can find me the code you'd be helping me out big time.
    Cheers

    That was very quick!
    Thanks a lot, will give it a try tomorrow. Now the radio wants to wait 30 minutes before I can do anything so tomorrow I will enter the code. Hope it works.
    Cheers!

    Hi Guys,

    Sorry to worry you, I wonder if you can help.
    I had to replace the battery on my Ford Focus and now my stereo is asking for a code, is this something that you can help with please?
    I've checked the owners manual but it doesn't look like the little card was filled in by the dealer :(

    Model: 6000 CD
    Serial: M257425

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    D.
