2000 cavalier radio loc code
okay first my mother and i both have 2000 cavaliers only she has a sports package and i don't. recently her cavalier went bad and she got a brand new car well since my cd player wasn't working and all the black lettering on my stereo was peeling off, i took her cd player. of course i'm the kind of girl that knows almost nothing about cars and i had no clue about the theft system. i have searched here and google for the past week trying to figure out how to unlock the radio. i'm trying to avoid going to dealership but i have tried holding 2&3 for ten seconds, all those steps and it doesn't work. my uncle who is a mechanic told me to look on the top or back of the radio and the code would be on there but all i saw was a bunch of long numbers. is there any wire to cut to get the LOC to go away?? or something else i can do for my cavalier??
and to let you know my stereo looks like this http://www.carstereoremoval.com/imag...31070101xP.jpg help would be great!! i'm going insane. it's 65 degrees in annapolis and i have no radio!! :-( |

Yup, dealership. That is the only way around it. They have to plug the tech II into your OBDII port.

Re: 2000 cavalier radio loc code
The owner's manual should have instructs on unlocking the radio. A 2000 radio in a Cavalier shouldn't serial 2 and shouldn't need reprogramming, just unlocked. But if it is an RDS radio or serial 2, t will need to be reprogrammed. I found this procedure. Try it and see if this works:
