- Confirm the code. The confirmation button varies by model (e.g., 5, , >). For example, Ford 6000CD uses 5, Sony uses , and most VW, Audi, Skoda, and Seat models use > (right arrow).
Troubleshooting SAFE/LOCKED/WAIT/ERROR Messages:
All radios have anti-theft protection. To prevent brute-force attacks, most radios will block after three incorrect attempts.
- Ford: If you see "WAIT," leave the radio powered on for 30 minutes. "LOCKED" or "LOCKED10" may require holding button 6 for ten seconds to regain attempts. "LOCKED13" indicates a semi-permanent block requiring dealer assistance.
- VW (Volkswagen): Three incorrect attempts result in "SAFE" or "SAFE2." Leave the unit on for 60 minutes to retry.
