    Hi,

    Like I said, I have double and treble checked and based on the M Serial you gave originally, the code I have supplied you with, is the actual code assigned to your radio when it left the factory.

    There are a number of reasons for the code not working for example,
    1. Human error i.e. either the select button or number 5 button was not pressed after the code to set the code to the radio
    2. The stereo components themselves have been replaced within the original casing.
    3. A previous owner of the vehicle had the stereo recoded.

    The above three as far as I know, are the only reasons.
    Suppose a previous owner of the vehicle had a similar problem to you but instead of taking the vehicle to Ford or to a reputable business instead, he might have taken it to a mate whom knew how to recode radios.
    In this scenario, the radio would have been allocated a new code which no-one will be able to find out.
    In this case, you have only two options,
    Have the stereo recoded again or replace it.

    Hope this helps!:)

    Hi,

    Ford V Codes are not availble on here or the net for free.
    You would have to go to your dealer or radio decoder service.

    Hope this helps!:)

    Hi,

    Your M serial number is too long and should only contain 6 numbers after the letter M.
    Please check again.

    Hope this helps!:)

    Hiya,
    it does help.
    The serial should be;
    M200177

    PT no: (correct) 96FP-18k876-FC.

    Apologies.

    Thanks anyway. Found out the code was written onto the outside of the radio anyway so it's working now :)
