Kuga Mk1 radios and navigation
The first Kuga (2008–2012) was fitted with the later 6000 CD and Sony CD units, and with Blaupunkt TravelPilot navigation on some versions. After the battery is disconnected these units lock and show CODE.
The second-generation Kuga (from 2013) uses Ford SYNC, which normally does not ask for a radio code at all.

| 2008–2012 with navigation | Blaupunkt TravelPilot | BP… or C7… | Label on the unit (must be removed) |

I tried this site and it worked 100% correctly on my radio! Ford dealer told me he also can provide for free visiting them, but having the option to receive the code via Internet, with a fast response time is ideal. Thank you so much for such a great service!
