Entering Radio pin/security code

[Skipmsg Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close Skipmsg]

Does anyone know how to get the radio to except a security code after the battery has been disconnected. I just replaced the battery and my radio just displays the word 'SEC' and I can't get it to a point where I can enter the code (which I do have).

If anyone could walk me through the process that would be great, it's a 2004/5

Cheers

Your all too slow, I found the answers myself. How good is google.

Entering a radio code:
• Hold in the 'SEEK UP' button and press the no. '1'
The 'SEC' displayed on the radio will know say '1'
• Push the '1' button as many time as need to much the first number in your code.
For example in your code was 567 you would need to push the '1' button 5 times.
• Then for the second number push the number '2' button 6 times.
• Then for the third number push the number '3' button 7 times.
Eg. 11111 222222 3333333
• Finally hold in the 'SCAN' button to confirm your code. Easy!!

I used the last 3 VIN digits on my 2005 Grande. Assuming the previous owner hasn't changed your PIN, that should work.

Can I de code my radio myself and then add a new code? Battery went flat, now radio showing ' sec ' and cannot find original security numbers. Thanks

Try last 3 digits of your VIN
