Hi all, my radio has just gone to safe mode, i did not have flat battery. I put code in and has just gone back to safe mode. When i press the AS button and hold it then knock radio on i do not get any beep. It just seems to be stuck on safe mode, any ideas please.

[ronomega]

i put correct code in three times and its says 07 code
I know its 7 attempts left, but i read on here you have to leave your keys and ignition on for two hours. Is that the correct procedure?

[RobG]

Radio OFF
Ignition ON
Radio on whilst pressing AS button then you should hear the "beep".
Ignition must be left on until display shows "CODE"

[ronomega]

I have done that mate and it will not beep.

Clearly the code you are entering is incorrect. Absolutely no point whatsoever is attempting that code again

[ronomega]

it will not let me put a code in lad, i used the code before when i changed battery. I cant get it to beep to allow me entering a code,

[TheBoy]

So why is counter down to 7 

Anyway, the key point is that ign needs to be on, and radio needs to start off -  turning the ign on whilst holding AS won't work.

If you are in a countdown wait, ign needs to be left on until timer has finished.

i put correct code in three times, how long will i have to wait to get another attempt? I have original security code on a card when vehicle was bought new

Are you actually entering the code? Or is it aborting part way through? Its not clear from your posts above.

If you are actually getting to the point of entering the code, and then pressing AS again, then the code you have is WRONG and no point trying again.

Either your radio is faulty or you didn't put the correct code in.

You wouldn't be the first person to type in the ECU security code instead of the radio code (I have more than once )

[ronomega]

It will not let me enter a code now, i cant get of safe mode.

It will not let me enter a code now, i cant get of safe mode.

But did it previously?

At 7 attempts remaining, you are in a countdown, and ign must be left on continuously until timer expires. But do NOT enter the same code again, clearly its WRONG!

[ronomega]

Is it the security code on my card or the radio code? i entered security code but i think it is radio code

Should have two codes on the carpass. When display shows "CODE", enter the one you haven`t tried if unsure of the initial code you inputted

[ronomega]

i tryed security code only 4 digits
but radio type/code is ****/**** which one is it?
