  • Had a flat battery in my 53 plate mondeo and now my cd player wants a code! I started mashing buttons and now I have to wait 30mins before I can do anything. Was told to press and hold 1 and 6 together to get my serial number.
    I've done this and it says
    DP MV SH
    507000 12 (with 255 underneath)
    09 - 00 - 00
    None of these numbers look like the serial numbers posted above. I haven't waited for the timer to run down, will that make a difference??
    If anyone can help me out that would be amazing.
    Please help me I need music!

    Please help, I'm on my 4th attempt to unlock my Ford Cmax CD600 Radio. I pressed numbers 1 and 6 and got the following:

    FDD2008
    V011286

    I'm assuming that the V011286 is the Serial. Can anyone send me a code?
    V serial codes are not available free, ebay for less than £5

    You will need to pull it from the dash and get the serial from the sticker.

    Code not working! Radio screen shows 3 lines. I press button 1 8 times, then button 2 5 times, then button 3 4 times and then press button 4 4 times. Should the screen show the digits i enter as im doing it, as the screen just stays 3 lines? Maybe it's 3 digit code, radio has 4 number! Thanks for help!

    All M serial codes are four digit codes each digit of code should appear in display as you select, Don't know why you are seeing only three --- should be four ----
