    Wallbash, do I enter the codes using buttons 1-4 then press 5? do I have to press and hold 5? reason I ask is it is now counting down from 30,I assume minutes? Is this ok? Thanks I have no handbook so frying my brain trying to remember.

    Counting down usually means the wrong code . I have checked and the code for
    M536936 is 0472 , where did you obtain the M******* number from?

    jeansantolin your English is fine . But we normally only manage to decode European radios.
    The M /V code is on the rear of the radio , we suggest that the owner removes radio from dashboard.

    In your case I do not know if there is a M ****** code located there .
    Sorry I don't know what to suggest .

    Hi Wallbash, I got the code from the sticker on the top of the radio. I admit that I tried 3 times as I wasn't sure how to put the code in. That is why I asked about the sequence.I will let it run down and try again using the sequence as I wrote above.Thanks again
  • Hi just bought a Peugeot 206 and need the code for the stereo to work;

    Model PU-2294B(D)

    0472

    Radio displays CODE

    Press 1st button repeatable until the 0 appears.
    Press 2nd button 4 times

    Press 3rd button 7 etc etc

    When 0472 is displayed press 5th button , radio should spring into life .

    You have had 3/4 attempts , we have 10 so no need to panic yet .
    But if you see 0472 displayed and it still refuses to work , don't keep trying we will have a rethink.
