               CAR RADIO LOGO
CAR RADIO DECODING  

What is this?
Modern car stereos have anti-theft, electronic security codes, which are required if the car battery is disconnected or if the radio is removed from the car.

The radio display, will no longer show the radio station or CD operation, instead it will show 'CODE' 'SAFE' 'LOCKED' 'CODEIN' or a similar message indicating a code is required.

You will require this service if...
  • You have lost or misplaced your code card. The car user manual usually has a car radio section, a card with the radio code is sometimes in there. check before ordering this service.
  • Your car battery has gone flat.
  • Your new car doesn't have a code card.
Decode options...
There are two ways to have your car radio decoded, the quickest and least expensive way is by serial number, this can be done by sending us a unique serial number from your car radio, we can then calculate and send your code by email.

The other option involves sending your car radio to our workshop for 'manual decoding' the links below are for the models supported by serial number decoding.

We can decode / unlock the majority of car radios / CD / Navigation units at our workshop, always check to see if your model is covered by our serial number service.

If you need help, or more details, please contact us for more details.
