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:



More info about retrieving your lost Philips code.

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...

Brilliant service. Got code in 3 seconds, radio working in under 40 seconds from sending for it. Fantastic Thank you . Neil Hodges


Hi Sam. Code worked perfectly! Very impressed with your service, speed of delivery, and the ease of use of your website, marks out of 10 - 10! Well done and thanks again. Steve. Steve Wall


Thanks for enabling me to get my radio up and running again. Very impressed. The only problem was my own doing, advice to others, get a magnifying glass and make sure of the serial number on the radio chassis. 6 looks like an 8 when you got dodgy eyes!. Tony


Thank you for your help, left radio on for an hour and it reset itself, and the code worked so thank you. Helen Norman


Huge thank you, I cant tell you how awful it has been not having music as I drive. Your service is so easy to use and very cheap in comparison to the ford dealers. Thanks again, I am beyond delighted to have music in my car again. Maxine Gardiner
