Hi feeling frustrated and a bit thick. My radio is asking for a code. I have pressed and held. 1&6 and it scrolls thru a load of stuff i do not understand. Why is it so hard to enter a code to make a radio work .

The correct radio SERIAL NUMBER is required for a code
It usually begins with M or V followed by SIX digits ...such as M654321 or V654321
Sometimes pressing buttons 6 & 1 together or 6 & 2 will display this number
Otherwise remove the radio from the dashboard and post the SERIAL NUMBER found on a label on the casing
Radio removal instructions can be found here..... or search YouTube for a video

Thanks i will try this.
Does it scroll thru a load of gobble degook then S/N?
If so the SN has nothing after it.
