before i go mental with the screwdrivers.... am i right in thinking that:
1. get the 4 screws out the stereo and ease this out
2. get the big screw holding the cage to the dash out and slide cage out
3. take 2 phillips head screws out. pull out ECU, unplug, replace and do reverse to put it back together?
also will i need the ''radio code'' when i refit the stereo?
thanks guys :y :y :y :y
-
What ECU?
-

-

thanks rob, i have that stored.... but as i cant take the laptop out with me im gonna memorise it ::)
do i really have to take the ashtray out to get the climate control panel out? :-/
also will i need the radio code when i replug back in?
cheers.
-
Radio code needed (unless it`s been de-activated). Ashtray can remain if you can reach behind to release elec. connectors and the springclips at each end
....ain`t you got a printer then ::)
-
lol no printer mate
where do i find the radio code?
-
On the car pass (assuming you`ve got one). Credit card size with radio & immob. codes....but radio code only relevant to the unit fitted @ production. No pass.....VX will bend you over between £15-45
Audio specialist with the gear will unlock it for about £25-30 or contact DaveDND.....or for what they`re worth, get another
-
nope i have that mate (stored safely in my manual wallet) :y
so when i plug it back in will the computer ask me to input the code? :-/
-
Radio OFF. Ignition ON & radio on & press AS button together. Input code using numbered station buttons. If code was 4567 Press button 1x5....button 2x6 etc (first press will be zero). Once code is in press AS button again to store. Once all done, if you want to de-activate the code request repeat the procedure
Just hope that the code you have is for that actual unit

Webby, if your replacement AirCon control unit is new (as in never fitted to a car) it will be in 'delivery' mode & you will need to have it activated by Tech 2. I have one in my shed that I bought to replace the worn buttons on mine & thought I could just replace the old with the new ::)
as for needing the radio code, I believe you can turn off the coding but the owners Audio Manual states the sequence of events is on page 17 (CDC6000) only it aint! :( Maybe someone who has done this in the past can help? ;)
