    I have the code for a new radio (3148). Philips 400 car. But can't get it to work as i think i am not entering it correctly. Tell me if i am getting it wrong:

    ignition on
    hold down AS button
    Radio on
    Release AS button
    press '1' 3 times..... '2' once....'3' 4 times and '4' 8 times
    Press AS

    I don't have a display on this radio.. had a 'beep' when i tried it the second time but still doesn't work.

    Any ideas?

    When you say you have "no display" , are you trying to enter this code "blind"?

    If so , then you have to add an extra one press to each digit as the first press would give a display of 0 (so 2 presses gives a display of 1 ....and so on )
    So 3148 means you have to press as 4 2 5 9 ( 3+!...1+1...4+1...8+1 )

    Hi! can you help me?
    Blaupunkt-Werke
    vwz1z1x4674556
    sn:7 648 238 360
    TNX!

    I don`t think these VW Blaupunkts can be decoded for free .

    Try code 6257

    and let me know if it works.

    If not, then it`s the Main Dealer or a Decoding Service or your local Car Radio / Audio Shop...who are usually the cheapest option

    Hi RegWorts,

    I have just bought a Rover 75 and the stereo is locked. It's looking for a 4 digit code and the seriel number is:-

    RG745WX1015303

    It's a Phillips, other numbers on the barcode are:-

    9022 217 45609 00
    003 9926 1015303

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    I don`t think this code will be available for free from anywhere on the Internet

    Try your Main Dealer, a Decoding Service or your local Car Radio / Audio Shop ( who will normally be the cheapest option)

    Yes there is no LCD display. It's a few yrs old so no readout, just the lights around the buttons to indicate that it is turned on/off.

    I see what you mean about the extra press. Thanks.. i will try that tomorrow.
    Never sign anything!

    With your serial number starting with V you wont be able to get a free code from the internet, it is a trip to the dealer sorry mate
