Locked radio

[Joeman]

Hi. I have a 2014 ford monado titanium x. I recently had to chage the battery but since that, my radio is looking for the vehicle identification number. Its a 4 digit number. Where can I get this. Thanks

Normally the code is in with the stereo handbook or on a credit card size piece of card with your handbooks.

If you don't have it then someone in the past may have written the code on a sticker somewhere in the car, you'd have to try and locate it.

Failing that you can either go to Ford to get the code but they will most likely charge you for it (£10 back in 2003 for my last car), or Google for a solution (there should be one but I don't think I'm permitted to post here for security reasons, plus I'd have to try and find it again).

Mine was written on radio sticker, but my car is older so could be different.
