Radio Removal Guides

To locate your serial number, the first step is removing your car stereo from the vehicle. This is essential for online decoding, as we provide the original code for your unit based on the serial number, unlike main dealers who use the vehicles registration number. This means are codes are more accurate, especially if its a second hand unit or been replaced at any stage.

Simply insert the removal tools or equivalent into the two or four slots to in the corners of the stereo as illustrated.
Most require you to push the tools away from the radio which causes the clips to push in and away from the dashboard to release
The stereo should easily slide out without too much pressure.

Once you have successfully removed your car stereo, Locate the serial number by inspecting the top and right hand side of the radio.

Serial Number Location Guide

An example of serial numbers commonly found on Car Radios :

M089008 (Ford)
YS0123Y1234567 (Clarion)

GM030M15444575 (Blaupunkt)

Before getting a code we recommend you first ensure your radio is not blocked. Simply turn the unit on, and try to enter the first digit of any code "ONLY THE FIRST DIGIT" If this is ok, immediatly turn the radio off. If you find however that you are unable to enter any digits, leave your car radio powered up for 1 hour continuously to reset itself.

Whilst you have it removed also check for any labells such as Repaired... Exchange.. and check that labels such as Warranty Void if Removed are in-tact.

If your radio is blocked, or the codes you have or we supply fail to work, we also offer a Workshop Radio Decoding service, allowing us to reset the radio code or decode the majority of radios which require a code for details on these services please see our Workshop Decoding section to the left..
