How do I get my radio code for free?
First of all, you need to find the serial number of the Ford radio to get the code! The serial number can be obtained in these simple ways:
- Press and hold radio buttons 1 and 6 (sometimes 2 and 6) at the same time to start the scrolling information, the serial number is displayed at the end.
- The radio serial number must start with the letter M or V followed by 6 digits (ex : M------, V------, FDC2005M------ FDMCA1CV---- + 2 digits next screen, SOCD6X7V------). In this case just put your serial in the decoding box!
- Some examples of how to get the Ford radio serial number on screen: - How to get Ford Sony CD(Youtube) and - How to get 6000 CD(Youtube).
What if I cannot find my Ford radio code using the first method?
It is quite simple to remove your Ford radio, you just need to remove the unit from the dashboard to get the serial number from the radios label. It is quite simple with special keys and can be quite easy with some improvised ones.
Examples of how to extract the Ford 6000CD cassette player with or without special keys - How to remove radio (Youtube) and - Ford radio code - find serial number.
Ford radio locked?
Try to avoid entering incorrect code repeatedly, you can risk blocking your radio permanently!
If the message LOCKED10/LOCK10 appears on the screen, it means that a wrong code has been entered 10 times. At this stage it can still be decoded, but the cassette player only accepts 3 more codes before being permanently blocked. To reset this status, with the radio switched off, press and hold button 6 while turning it on.
If the message LOCKED13/LOCK13 appears on the display, it means that the wrong codes have been tried 13 times, a situation in which the ford's radio can no longer be decoded online, but only by an electronics specialist.
