If you need a V code for a a Ford stereo you should
*Visit your local Ford dealer

I googled for the ford calculator and I found the for M-series code calculator ATTACHED.

The radio for S/No: M080972 ; Try 7548

Enter your Serial number and press 5 to calculate, power on/off button to close

Cheers for that! workin perfect.:)

Dumbfr3ddi3 · 14-05-2009 3:12pm

I'm pretty sure all the key codes of Ford cars are under the ashtray, you can pull out the tray...and theres a little sticker under that. So its worth a look there if you dont know it. Not sure about any other car.

Sorry if you all already know this and looked!

hustlergraham · 14-05-2009 3:32pm

I have a 2005 Mondeo and the radio code is printed on a sticker on top of the radio when you take it out...

I used the coat hanger trick and after a bit of work it came right out!

Thanks

weeslip · 10-06-2009 9:31pm

hi, sorry but i am using vista and the app wont work.:(
Can someone get me the code for this radio. Car just back from garage and code lost!:mad:
Model: 5000 rds
Serial: M226087

thanks in advance

bogs · 07-08-2009 8:20pm

if your lucky the previous owner will have it written down in the radio manual or some conveniant place(eg inside glove compt, sun visor),if not you will need to go to your ford gealer ie its a ford radio.On the other hand it may not be your problem.Check for a power drain from your heated rear window.Bogs.

mullingar · 07-08-2009 8:35pm

M226087=0967

4741 - The app was posted earlier in the thread. I presume you know how to program this into your radio? let us know if you get stuck.

Fordhuha · 16-08-2009 9:23am

Thanks mate. Don't I just have to key this
number on the radio. I'm actually travelling and posting
this from my phone.

chillywilly · 25-08-2009 6:06pm

Hey,

My Ford focus code is in the book but it isnt working. My serial number is M318488.

Can anyone help?

The app wouldnt work for me!

Hal1 · 25-08-2009 6:25pm

It's 3779. Can't believe the main stealers charge for that.

chillywilly · 25-08-2009 6:38pm

cheers for that but thats the number i already had but it isnt working. It keeps coming up "Wait- 30 mins"

Is there another way to find out the serial number other than the audio guide?

Hal1 · 25-08-2009 6:57pm

It sounds like the anti theft thingy has kicked in because the radio was incorrectly programmed 3 times (not sure how many tries it gives you). Only other option would be to disconnect the - negative on your battery for 30 minutes and try again. This might mean reprogramming your key fob though.

chillywilly · 25-08-2009 7:13pm

i think i know what it is. The Audio Guide says radio model is the 5000 series but on my radio it says 6000 cd model. The radio must have been changed before. Ill have to take out the radio to check the serial number.....could i do this with coat hangers?:D

chillywilly · 25-08-2009 7:31pm

i just made radio removal tools out of coat hangers with the help of some wire clippers and pulled out the radio:D.....The serial number and code was on top!! Sorted!!

Cheers for your help Hal!:)

Hal1 · 25-08-2009 7:49pm

Yea coat hangers, me the sucker bought them from halfrauds when I installed my aftermarket radio. Glad you got it sorted.

lordgoat · 04-09-2009 11:28am

hi guys,

sorry if this isn't allowed, had a look around but couldn't see anything.

Is there any way of getting the serial number of a 6000 rds eon radio from a 00 fiesta without taking it out of the dash?

changed battery recently and need the code to unlock the radio and i need the serial number to get the code... Or is there another way around this?!

any help greatly appreciated,

thanks

Hal1 · 04-09-2009 12:54pm

Check your owners manual for the code, or it will have to be removed to get the serial number.

lordgoat · 04-09-2009 4:11pm

Never got the manual with the car, thanks for the info though

Carstuck · 04-09-2009 4:16pm

You definitly need the serial number. I had a 00 fiesta before and paid €50 to get the code. If you can get four long screws and stick them into the four holes it should pop out the radio and you can get the serial no.

Hal1 · 04-09-2009 4:20pm

You could remove that radio with a coat hanger. You will need a pilers and cut two 15cm lengths of it into this shape. Pic here. They will fit the two holes on each side of the radio.

martinr5232 · 04-09-2009 4:44pm

take out the ashtray and look underneith it the code sticker could be there or behind the interior light pop it out and the sticker could be stuck up there.

If not pull the stereo out like was said above and ring your Ford dealer and give them the info they need off the side of the radio they shouldnt charge you for it if they try to just ring another dealer.

lordgoat · 04-09-2009 6:23pm

Thanks all round guys, i'll give this a go later!

Hellrazer · 04-09-2009 8:45pm

If you cant find it Lordgoat--Pop me a pm with the Part number and serial number(on the side of the radio on a white sticker) and Ill get it for you on Monday morning.

Jesus 50 euro for a radio code--We dont charge at all.

Hal1 · 04-09-2009 10:24pm

There is an 'APP ' that someone posted here a while back that gives you the code once you enter the serial. These threads are 1 a month now.

ScouseMouse · 04-09-2009 10:27pm

Pull the stereo out and on the top should be a number starting M........

Post the number here.

We will get you sorted.

zilog_jones · 06-09-2009 9:26pm

I paid €30 in a main stealer for the code for my Fiesta radio. Then a few days later I noticed the code was on a sticker in the boot, just underneath the lock :mad:

Not sure if this is a common thing or just something a previous owner did (I believe the car comes with a sticker or two with the code on it).

JCDUB · 15-09-2009 4:40pm
