Finally got round to changing my car battery safe in the knowledge i had my key code written down :-)
However on entering said keycode into the radio it didnt work :-(
I dont have DIN keys to get radio out, so tried the 6&1 trick and i got :-
5070 1940
DP MV SH(or possible 5H)
09 00 00
Is this any good in helping me solve the key code mystery?
Its a 04 ford focus 6000cd rds.
Should i bother going to halfords for DIN keys to get proper serial or am i destined for a ford dealer?
Many thanks
Skint
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
Radio removal instructions can be found here

Hi there everyone. I'm looking for a code for a Vauxhall Astra radio- a Delco Electronics CDR500. Codes show as - 4 660 103 and then GM 90 493 281 and then PA6-GF15. We are on route to Wales from London and very bored without some music, much appreciated if anyone would mind helping me out!
Thank you
Max0
