  • Hi,

    I'm wondering if anyone can help me find the code to my 2003 Nissan Micra car stereo... the code was supplied when we brought it. :-(

    The serial number is BP538962415950

    Thank you in advance...

    We can only help to 'decode' the M****** number ( on these pages) found on the rear of the radio.
    So its out with the radio from dashboard, look for yellow stcker with the magic M number . post that , in return we reply with a 4 digit number which should bring your radio back to life.
