    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

    Radio removal instructions can be found here

    Hello another distressed keycode less man with a radio in distress.
    Can someone help me please to get my keycode, I've found holding 6 and 1 will show you the number V002408
    Many thanks to anyone who can help
    Ford V Serial codes are not usually available for free from anywhere on the Internet (unless you can blag it for free from Ford) as they are not calculated using software but require access to the Ford factory database( via a Ford Dealer)...which is not commercially available as software.

    See your PM message for cheap options

    Otherwise try your Ford Dealer or a Radio Decoding Service
