    Hi, I changed the battery in my Ford Focus today & entered the code 1218 - which is the one printed in the handbook, only to get the 30 minute countdown 4 times - the serial number is M169668, if you could check the code against this I'll be eternally greatful!
    1218 is the correct code for that serial. Press 6&1 or 6&2 and the number may appear on the display clearly as M123456. If not you will need to pull it from the dash and read the serial from the sticker. Stop entering codes as you only have 10 tries before a reset sequence is required and 13 before you will have to bin it.

    Hi Molerat - Many thanks for your quick reply
    I Pressed 6&1 & it brought up DP MV SH followed by 09-00-00 and then 507000 12
    I guess this doesn't help with the serial number!
    Is there a possibility that the keycode has been changed at some point in the past before I bought the car?
    Again many thanks for your time.

    UK FORD CODES ONLY ! --- Single code requests only for personal use ( your audio paperwork or radio may not be original for your car ) You will not have unlimited code entry attempts only 10 to 13 then you will be locked out so do NOT enter it if its not for your radio --- if you need your serial number then some radios you can press the station preset buttons 1&6 or 2&6 & it may display your 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 keycode/serial number on it for that radio ( see photo on left eg M123456 or V123456 one letter & six numbers ) if its a M serial number just post it SORRY but if its a V serial number then it not free as access is required to the original FORD factory database ( which is not commercially availble ) if you need info on poss best sites for your code needs take a look on e-bay or ( http://ukbookshelf.co.uk/fordv )
    volkswagon61 please read above
    TO ENTER CODE - press station preset button 1 repeatedly for 1st diget of your keycode - repeat the same on - 2 for 2nd - 3 for 3rd - 4 for 4th - & if the display then shows the correct keycode number press preset button 5 to enter - photo shows radio extractor keys & serial number on the radio casing - go to u-tube & see remove ford radio
