ZStuart Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I was told because the stereo is intergrated into the dash, you don't need a code, as no one will nick it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harweyko Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Following can be found on Ford Etis pages (if youhave the right access): service Instructions This audio system does not use a conventional audio keycode. After replacing the multifunction display, on switching on the ignition the vehicle's chassis number must be entered in the new multifunction display. From that point onwards, the chassis number becomes an integral part of the multifunction display. If the battery is disconnected or if the power supply fails for any other reason, the audio system can subsequently be put back into operation without any codes having to be entered. Therefore audio keycodes are not available to customers . An audio keycode is only used if the multifunction display was previously used in another vehicle. In that case the Ford workshop must request the audio keycode via GSEVIN (FordEtis) quoting the serial number of the multifunction display. If the keycode is entered incorrectly 3 times, the system will lock out and not allow the next keycode to be entered for a period of 30 minutes. After entering the keycode the 10th time incorrectly, the system will lock out. The component can only be unlocked by using the Ford diagnostic equipment. And if you have 2 lines display it is not possible to upgrade to matrix display :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
