Seriously. The best bet is to go to the dealer and pay the (most likely) ridiculous charge to get it.

Re: radio code

there were a few at the beginning that did ...... most thru pvt msg. I just wonder why the dealers charge so much for something that should be free, I mean I didn't ASK for a code to be put into my nearly worthless stock headunit. It should come with a standard "1234" code from the factory, and changed only if I want to.

Re: radio code

Exactly but think about it this thread is over 3 years old, and up until what the second page people might have gotten codes. Its almost as bad as these threads from 02 and 03 that are about something and some of the people havent posted since then.

Im going to search google, wont do me much good since i refuse to use a stock unit. But i might be able to find a website that gives info to reset it, or what the code might be like the last 4 of the vin, or something. I think people are just to lazy to use google.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.

Re: radio code

the radios and other electronics are made in a different factory, they are installed into the chassis at the last step - I HIGHLY doubt the radio code has anything to do with the VIN number.

Re: radio code

True but they can program them or have a preset code, and i would figure the vin would be one of the best ideas for that. But manufacturers are idiots and love money.

Re: radio code

it's an extra step that's not worth the time (or money)

Re: radio code

when it first comes on, you put the code in using the number keys (like for radio presets)

Re: radio code

Anyone have help on a 2000 Cadillac Deville Radio Problem? My radio won't come on, and has an AutoTheft Radio Installed that is supposed to read my VIN number when the car starts.
