It should display SAFE when you turn it on. If not try disconnecting & reconnecting the battery. Also check the fuse.

most times, they have a security feature where if the code is entered incorrectly a few times in a row, the radio locks up. I don't know for sure about VWs, but most cars you just need to let them run for an hour and the radio will reset. Then you have another 3 chances to enter the code. There is no reason to deal with the dealership unless you don't have the security code...
