As I understand it, if its not in delivery mode and depaired from its screen, then at best its a desktop ornament or alternate conversation piece....  :(

As Dave DND says, we have a way to discover the pairing code on NCDC201x series stereos, and have a way to set CID back to delivery mode.  It will still require a bit of Tech2 work afterwards to repair various bits, but its usually possible.

In your case, if you got a replacement CID that worked but had unknown code, you could get around the coding by swapping some parts around ;)

Only if it were 'sorted' and put into delivery mode....

I have a good, fully working, depaired, NCDC2013 that I intend to sell with the spare GID (or even CID if I can sort a small problem with it).

They fetch good money (esp with CID), but unless you are getting it dirt cheap, by the time you have 'sorted' it, probably not feasible.  Also, even if depaired, still needs to be paired to go in the car.


That aside, if its cheap enough, I may be interested ::)
