    Hi,
    After replacing a fuse in our Corsa the radio is now showing the message SAFE. We don't have the code so are stuck music-less unless someone can help us!
    Radio Type - CDR 2005
    Numbers on stickers on radio - GM330886636
    No. 13 122 932

    Can anyone please help?
    Many thanks,
    Sue.
  • Apologies in advance for me beeing silly.

    I have locked my husband's radio in his Ford Ka (silly me left lights on for the night).
    My friend helped me to obtain serial code of it. M 001408.
    My husband is back home on Monday. I am so dead if I won't get this sorted.
    Anyone able to help me?

    Post the 14 character Serial Number found stamped in the metal casing

    It will begin with GM++++++++++++
  • is the serial num the same as engine num? mine is bd000618. you think you can retrieve the code? thanks a lot!
  • i guess its not the engine num but the radio serial number. how do i get it? ive tried pressing 6+1 or 6+2 but no serial appears. i just see in the manual part number 5m5919c104ba.

    thanks
