    Thank you Dave for your help, but I only have one another question. How do I have to enter the code? There are only 6 numbers displayed.

    Fadyy.........

    Use button 1 to select the first digit of code
    Use button 2 to select the second digit of code, 3 for third and 4 for fourth when code is correct in display press 5

    The correct radio SERIAL NUMBER is required for a code

    It usually begins with M or V followed by SIX digits ...such as M654321 or V654321

    Sometimes pressing buttons 6 & 1 together or 6 & 2 will display this number

    Otherwise remove the radio from the dashboard and post the SERIAL NUMBER found on a label on the casing
  • Hi guys, hoping someone out there can help. I need a radio code for a ford transit radio model 4000rds. Serial number M199602. Would appreciate any idea of how to get the code.

    Thanks in advance :)
