If I give someone the vin number, could you tell me what my radio code is? In prepping the car for my brother in law, we replaced the battery, and now need a code.

Thanks in advance!

 

only way to get the radio code is to get the serial number of the radio, vin numbers wont work

 

you cant do it from the vin.

either give me your 8 digits from holding your "1 and 6" or take out the radio and give me the serial # ill get it for you when i'm at work tomorrow.

just pm it to me.

 

the car is now in Austin with me, stopped in Waco and dropped the top and went the rest of the way like that since i didnt have a radio.

Question about the radio code, if it is saying "err2" (which we assume means 2nd try because we tried what we thought was the code) will pressing 1 and 6 to get the code still work or will it think its another try?

 

Pull the fuse or disconnect the ground cable. turn the radio off, press and hold 1 & 6, turn radio on. Code is on the display.

 

i tried the 1 and 6 thing on mine and it didnt work. i final got pissed off and took my radio out of the dash after 3 hours of calling people and looking on the internet and the code was on top of the radio!

 

check on top of radio or in glove compartment there might be a sticker w/ it

 

Ha . ha. glove compartment.... i forgot about that word ever since i got my s. the radio code can be any where. who knows. like i said if you have a problem getting one. just give me your serial # and ill get it.. 2108181705. call or text it to me

 

Umm, it's located vertically between yourself and the passenger seat.

 

Ya. but its junk
