    4917 is the correct code for that serial. Where did you get that M serial from ? Give us the M****** serial directly from the radio sticker and we will be able to help. You have a limited number of tries left before the radio goes in the bin so the correct serial is essential.

    Forget what you have written down , take radio out of dashboard and check the 'correct' s/n

    There is a way of getting out of "locked" but if we tell you and the M serial you quoted is not correct, you do not know it is unless you physically check the unit, and you carry on entering the wrong code you will kill the radio. As wallbash said above pull it out, check the serial and get back to us.
