Battery went flat and can't find your radio security code?
Bought a secondhand car and didn't get the radio code with it?
Radio not accepting the code you were given?

These are common situations that the modern motorist may have to contend with.

I can supply codes for most makes of car radio currently in the UK. Turnaround is usually within a day, but some models may take longer due to the work involved. In some cases the radio needs to be removed from the vehicle and taken/delivered to me in order to electronicallyread the code. However I can do many Ford, Philips, Philips/VDO Renault, Blaupunkt and Becker models by serial number (see below).

Alternatively, if you can unsolder ICs (or know someone who can) you could post me the EEPROM IC and save quite a few pounds in postage costs. Not all radios use an external EEPROM chip to store the code so if you are in any doubt, please ask me before removing anything!

Lastly, the code for a number of Ford, Blaupunkt , Philips and Becker/Mercedes radios can be supplied at a cost of £5 for Ford codes, the rest at £9 by simply emailing me the radio's model and serial number. See below for more details and models covered.

Dealer and main agent enquiries are welcome.

Some Frequently Asked Questions -

Q	Is there a master reset code to unlock my radio?
A	No - for security reasons there are no 'master key' codes on any UK models to the best of my knowledge. However, some models fitted to USA market vehicles appear to have this facility.
Q	The car dealer has given me a code and it doesn't work. What now?
A	It's possible the radio in the car is no longer the one originally fitted by the manufacturer. Alternatively the code may have been changed during a previous lost key code situation. The only option available now is to have the radio decoded.
Q	I know I have the correct code but the radio does not do anything when I try to enter it.
A	It is likely someone has tried to enter a code or accidentally entered a number by pressing the radio preset station buttons. Most radios will enforce a delay between code entry attempts which increases (doubles in some cases) with every try. These radios need to be left switched-on, completely untou
