Hi gang

Tried variouse codes, have to keep waiting half an hour to try another code. Im on attemp 7

So probs would be easier to take the cd radio out of its socket and get the m or v serial number and get the code that way

But what kind of tool do you use to get the cd player away fom the dash.

Ive tried hair clips not working.

Its an 6000 rds cd radio

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Post up a photo of your radio and I'll link you to the correct tools.

Is it the one that looks likes its in 3 pieces ?

Pics of my radio. It has 2 holes at either side of radio

What tools can I use to go in these holes to remove cd radio from fasia. Ie anything around the house I can improvise with.

Thanks

You could try a wire coat hanger,,, basically that's what the tool is anyway,,, cut 2 pieces and bend them like a horseshoe shape,,, the only differnce is, the ones you would buy are machined at the tips. Worth a try though.

Ok thank you ill try that .

Thankd

Isn't there something you can do on the radio itself to get it to show you the serial number so you don't need to remove it? It rings a bell...

I dont know . Only had the car a few days x

Just googled it, seems pressing numbers 6 and 1 together or 6 and 2 together may show the serial number (usually begins with an M or V). I can't guarantee anything though!

Max has tried the wire coat hanger, and cant get the radio to budge at all. And he is afraid he is going to break it.

looks like ill have to pay a garage to do it. How frustrating, when its probly so easy with the code. Grrr

Press and hold button 6 then press and release button 2.

This will bring up the code.

Once you have the code search ebay for sellers that do Ford M codes.

Expect to pay a couple of pounds.

For reference these are the keys you need to remove your radio-
