Evening - just rendered codes on my CCRT700 after having battery connected.

It’s asking for a PUK code - where do I find this as wish to use the car phone  ?

I’ve got all the code cards etc....

Thanks

[Doctor Gollum]

Isn't that the code to transfer a number from one phone company to another?

Or the pin number for a sim card fitted to the head unit

Have you actually got a phone in the car?

Ahhh...on these old girls a sim went in on a credit card sized piece of plastic iirc.

[woolley11]

Got the credit card size sim slotted in, which is a Vodaphone network.

The previous guy had an 02 sim.

 I just wondered if there was a specific code off the car information, but if it’s a transfer of network I’ll have to investigate further.

You'll need to get the Puk from Voda.

Hang on, I think I'm talking rubbish, again. The puk is to unlock a phone, not a sim. I think Jaime is your best bet here.

you don't need a PUK to fit a SIM in a CCRT head unit. Just fit the full sized SIM .... that's it. I remember flattening my mobile with nothing with me to charge it in the car so swapped the SIM from my phone to the Omega's CCRT (obviously a looong time back) to make the call

As above PUK codes are when you want to swap your mobile number from one net work to AN Other

It is asking for a PUK though. I just can't remember that far back. I had an old Nokia in the cradle, but that's as far as my memory goes

Think I'd try an 02 sim.

[woolley11]

Just rang Vodaphone to get a PUK code.

Says the phone number I’ve entered is no longer recognised on their network.

Given I’ve not used it for about 3.5 years that’s maybe the problem.

For the sake of a new SIM card £20/£10, I’ll get a new number.

[Doctor Gollum]

An EE 99p sim should do the job

I used a (then) T Mobile one in my CCRT2008 and just used to foward my mobile to it when I was driving.

A PUK code is a network specific unlock code. If the system is locked to Vodafone then you will need to get the code from Vodafone. A SIM from O2, 3 or EE or any of the virtual operators etc will just trigger a request for the PUK. code.

Try an active Vodafone SIM and then request the PUK.

No, No, No, NO!  A PAC code is what you'd need to migrate a mobile number from one network to another.

A PUK code is used when a network blocks a SIM (lost, stolen, not used for a very long time).

Bloody Pensioners!

Yeah, that's it
