Radio Code

[phil_monk]

hi Guys
Ok me and MIKEY fitted my Strut brce, LCR splitter and had a go at doing my sub with His brothers help. But when we connected the battery and used the code in my Hand book it locked us out. drove around for an hour for it to unlock and tried it again just to be sure. and again it didn't work. i am going to give the dealers a call in the morning and see if thay can have a look in my lunch. Anyone else had this problem?

Also i have to lave the radio for 60mins for it to come back, does that have to be driveing around? or can i just leave it on?

Thanks everyone

can just leave it on also are you just typing the number in or are you typing the number in and holding the scan key down after?? as in my manual it says hold down the PTY key but it dont work but the scan key does

My Maual it says push the SCAN key, yea i pushed the scan key for a second or two and just pushed it onece, It flashed "SAFE" a few times and then eith goes back to the 1000 or locks.

Iam going to get it out tomoz and see if the SN is the same as the one in the book.

Anyone else had problems unlocking there radios? i did a search and found a few LEAON owners had

Just pulled the UNIT out and the SN on the UNIT is diffrent then the one on the sterio looks like i got the wrong booklet.

Phoned the dealer and there going to to have a look tomarrow. but i have to go down there for them to give me the code.

Ok here it goes folks again, I'm helping because I was very frustrated with mine for a month. I got the following info from my dealer in Mexico via telephone. NO CHARGE. He informed me that the code might be under the ashtray. Pull out the ashtray and there might be a sticker under the ashtray with the code. It may be on the side of the radio unit or in the glove compartment. My code is 0777. Anyway turn your stereo on (car off) then wait for an hour!! no key inside ignition either! come back your display should have changed from SAFE to 1000. Then input the code first and then press the SCAN button and that's it!!! good luck, did mine yesterday!!!!
