    Hello, can anybody help me please with a security code for an Alpine IVA-C800R? I had to have a new battery fitted yesterday, and this "Mobile Media Station", in my second hand car no longer works! Not sure what to do next

    Many thanks
    This unit should not be coded. Is the unit working at all ? The unit probably needs resetting or the cable which may be connected directly to the battery, quite common on Alpines, might have been disconnected.

    that is the correct code for your serial number, perhaps you are not entering the code correctly or the radio has been reprogrammed?
    Hi Jazzy, unit removed checked & rechecked - entered code twice to check finger trouble - best guess is that it has been reprogrammed as it is second-hand car.

    Thanks for your help :)
  • The unlock for that serial is the one provided by JAZZY.

    Have you physically removed the unit to check the serial number?? or are you using the number in the car handbook??

    If you have removed the unit then chances are the unit has been recoded in the past - if so then you will have to have it recoded again
    Thanks for your help, guess the stereo has been recoded previously, time to upgrade... :)
