    Your a diamond, thanks a lot Dave.
  • I've had my Focus for over 10 years. I didn't even know the radio had a code until a new battery was fitted recently. If anyone can supply the code that would be appreciated.

    Hi

    If possible, could I have the code for my old Mundaneo's stereo? Can't find a note of it since we moved.

    The serial number is: M317084

    Many thanks in advance.

    FORD CODES ONLY! -- we need the ( correct ) serial number to get the code -- if you need your serial number then some radios you can press the preset buttons -- 1&6 or 2&6 -- & it may display the serial number if not then the radio will have to come out from the dashboard ( a vidio on you-tube can show you how ) on the casing of the radio is a label with the serial number on it for that radio ( see photo on the left eg M123456 or V123456 one letter & six numbers ) if its a M serial just post it, BUT IF ITS A "V serial" then its not free as V codes are done by the FORD data base if you need info on poss best sites please ask by posting here & a message will go on your private messages on the header at the top of the page --- or take a look on e-bay I will send a message if needed !
