    Hi,

    Bought a van and can't find radio code anywhere. Last owner hasn't a clue and local ford want £30 (plus vat) for it. Touch steep I reckon.

    It's a 6000cd
    Serial number: v011253

    If can help that would be GREAT. Only so much can put up with th voices in the head :-)
  • Hi, hope someone can help. My radio has the serial number V017683. Anyone know a code? Had the clutch replaced yesterday and they must have disconnected it. Thank you.

    V serial codes are not available free. Try Ebay for the best deal, usually £3 -£4.

    I know this is for Ford stereos but I wondered if you could please help with one for a Peugeot 306. I brought the car yesterday and was given the code for the radio whoever it doesn't work.

    Here are the relevant numbers:

    CL0401Y0218861
    PU2294A

    The code I was given id 6432 which when entered gives an Error code.

    Any help is much appreciated :)
    The correct forum for non-Ford radio codes is here
