Philips Serial Number's

Philips car radios will normally contain a 14 digit serial number which can be found either printed on a label or engraved on the side of the unit.

These serials are only visible once the Philips radio has been removed from the vehicle.

Examples of serials include:

By using our online Philips radio decoding service, you not only save yourself money, but also time and the additional hassle involved. Most vehicle main dealers will require you to book an appointment and take the car and paperwork (v5 logbook) into them before they apply for the radio code.   Once they do apply for the code, 9/10 times it will be based on the vehicle registration or VIN number of the car itself, which is fine if you have owned the car from new. However, receiving the radio code days later only to find that it did not work is yet another inconvenience.

There are a number of reasons why a radio code based on the vehicle registration or vin number may not work, including:


At Radio-Code, we don't provide radio codes based on the car, instead we provide the code based on the individual and unique serial number of the car radio, regardless of what it was fitted to originally.  Our radio codes have proven to be more accurate than main dealer's because of this.



What our customers have to say...

Just a quick email to say thank you. A very fast service (emailed the code within 1 minute). This was done cheaper than I could get it done locally. I will recommend you to my local garages. . Rober Beswick


Hi Sam, Thank you for your quick response to my problem, as you say we will now have to make alternative arrangements. I must say that your handling of the situation has been first class and it's good to see that there are companies out there that do still believe in customer service. Many Thanks. Claire Sambridge


Thank you very much . I found the service excellent and as we are a garage we will use this great site again, regards. Aidan Dunne


Brilliant, quick service, as well as instructions on how to enter and save code. My local garage wanted £25 and a 2-day wait with no guarantee they would get the code. At £7.99 and less than 5 minutes wait, your service is brilliant Many thanks! . Margaret Whittingham


thanks for the code, received in seconds, brilliant service, would use again, no sweat!! . Robin Scott
