Arrow radio code

I reset the ecu when I got my TP and of course my radio displays CodE now. I tried the whole thing with holding down 1&6 & turning off and on the radio and multiple variations of that to no avail. I went through all papers for the S, no radio code to be found. I even checked the usual spots for the radio sticker (in fusebox/underside of lid, glove box, secret compartment, trunk lid, owners manual, both door locations, nothing this really sucks Ive tried to contact the previous owner a couple times in the past but no response. I guess I'll go to the local stealership in the morning. If anyone has any advise I would be very grateful!

Pull the radio out yourself and give me the serial number - I work at a dealership and can get you your code for free. We charge 100 bucks to pull the radio and get the code.

Haha, yeah they're not supposed to do that. Did they at least ask you for some personal information just to confirm that you actually owned the car?

When you give the dealership the 8 digit serial number, you're also going to have to prove your ownership of the car. It for security reasons...blkwidow, the person who gave you the code could have been fired if his boss just saw him giving radio codes away hah. - u got lucky

but yea, They usually charge and hour labor to pull the radio out
