    Hey,

    Im wondering can someone help me. I ran the battery out in my car recently and as a result had to jump start it. Ever since, the radio is locked and I cant find the code for it. My boyfriend tried to input the common PIN numbers like 0000 and 1234 but unfortunately now its in safe mode and I have no idea what to do. Is it likely that ill have to go back to garage and pay to resolve this? Or is the any alternative options? I drive a 2008 seat ibiza.

    Thanks :-)

    Thanks for your help. I rang the garage where I bought the car (its a proper seat dealers) and they dont have the code on file. They said I have to go into garage and it costs €40. Apparently theyve to get codes from spain?! I just thought there may be an alternative?

    There are a few crowds online that will email you the code but you will need the radio out to get the serial number off it
