    Can it be done without release keys as I dont have them?
    Hello

    You can try this procedure.

    The correct radio SERIAL NUMBER is required for a code

    It usually begins with M or V followed by SIX digits ...such as M654321 or V654321

    Sometimes pressing buttons 6 & 1 together or 6 & 2 will display this number

    Otherwise remove the radio from the dashboard and post the SERIAL NUMBER found on a label on the casing.

    Im not sure this worked as it went into the 30:00 countdown... I am not 100% sure this is the serial number to be honest, I held down 1 and 6 and 1 of the screens that came up was C 830238 SA 810000... any ideas before I have to get the tools to take out the unit??
