Car Radio Unlocking

Hi everyone, I am totally new to this and hope that I have posted correctly - my apologies if I haven't.
I've just purchased a 2000 Ford Forte and have no code for the radio, I went to my local dealer who gave me a code from the chassis number but it didn't work. They told me for $80 they can pull the radio out and get the code, I thought this was abit steep and pulled it myself, there is a small sticker on top with the numbers 6401 which I thought could be the code but am unsure as there is no zero on my set to enter it with.
There is no model no. on the set, however the serial is 157975276401 underneath this is another number 1R23-18C815-AA. If anyone could help me I would be so grateful. Cheers
The exact instructions depend on the actual make + model of radio
Ford Code Entry Instructions
Once the unit has been turned on the display will show ' CODE - - - -'
Press preset [ 1 ] repeatedly for the first digit
Press preset [ 2 ] repeatedly for the second digit
Press preset [ 3 ] repeatedly for the third digit
Press preset [ 4 ] repeatedly for the third digit
To save the code press the [ 5 ] key to accept.
The set should now operate.
This looks like an Aussie radio so if not successful try emailing
