    hi guys, i have the same issue... my ford had a clutch replacement and you guessed it, it came back with a radio lock... my serial number is V007898 thanks in advance for the help.

    just a side question, does anyone know why such a lock exists? all i see is that it causes inconvenience and the only people suffering are legitimate car owners...

    your code is 9439

    Just had the battery replaced and the guy didn't put the saver thing in. Thought i'd been clever and written it on the radio but sadly not :)



    My serial number is v001425


    Many thanks in advance.
