what customers have said...
Kevin, if I were gay and single, I'd marry you. I love you! The code worked. I cannot thank you enough. I considered several other websites before choosing you. Somehow I sensed a level of honesty with your website that I didnt with the others. I also like how you are one of the very few who will accept a credit card without my having to set up a paypal account. Keep up the good work and thanks again! (Bill Poellnitz - Alpine 2396 in Mercedes) *** Thank you very much, I am very happy again.

Car Radio Code (Decode) Service (£5.95), including Philips in Renault, Peugeot & Citroen, Blaupunkt radios/sat-nav (inc. APS in Mercedes), Becker radios/sat-nav (inc. Traffic-Pro) & more

(see below - last updated 25 June 2010).

We offer a service for code-locked car stereo and satellite navigation units (locked after service or battery problems, where the original code is lost). We'll provide a code for radios where the code can be calculated from the unit's security or serial number wherever possible (see list of models below). If we're unable to provide a code, we endeavour to provide some information.

100% Money Back Guarantee: If we are unable to supply a code to unlock your radio, we'll happily refund the fee if you feel our service has not been of any help. But please first check the list of models we cover. Not all radios can be decoded from the serial number, some require a physical inspection/re-code.

Because of staffing restrictions during the holidays, we are unable to guarantee our normal service. However, a response will usually be emailed within 48 hours.

You will need to extract the radio from the dashboard to read the part number and serial number from the radio's chassis - this will be on a printed label, engraved on the metal case, or both. If you're not sure which numbers to give us, provide us with all the numbers you see and we'll check them for you.

We currently provide assistance on the following car radio models:

  • Philips models factory-fitted by Renault
  • Philips models fitted by Peugeot
  • Philips models fitted by Citroen
  • Blaupunkt: many models in Alfa Romeo, BMW, Fiat,
    Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Renault
  • Becker radios (inc. LeMans 2000) in Mercedes Benz & other vehicles
  • Alpine fitted to Mercedes (inc. 2297, 2299 & 2396 but not MF2910)
  • Ford & Jaguar 9000 Series radios
  • Some Clarion radios but only if there is a second barcode number starting C7000000**** (if the only number you have is the number starting CL then sorry, we cannot decode it)

Additionally we can assist on codes for some Satellite Navigation units:

  • Alfa Romeo (Blaupunkt RNS2, RNS3, 156 RNS) but not Siemens in Alfa 166
  • Becker (Traffic-Star, Traffic-Pro / T-Pro Highspeed, Online-Pro, PCM in Porsche)
  • Blaupunkt (TravelPilot, RNS3 / RNS4, DX-R4, DX-R52, plus older units)
  • Fiat (RNS3 in Punto, TravelPilot DX in Multipla)
  • Ford (RNS2 in Mondeo, Visteon VNR9000 in Mondeo, Traffic Pro)
  • Honda (Blaupunkt RNS1 / RNS2 / RNS3, TravelPilot DX-N)
  • Lancia (Blaupunkt RNS2 & RNS3, Becker)
  • Mercedes (Alpine, Blaupunkt (Bosch) inc. APS1, APS2 & APS4, Becker Audio 30 APS)
  • Renault (Becker Traffic-Pro)
  • Rover (Traffic Pro in Freelander)

ENTER ANY ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
For example, if there are several numbers on the radio chassis and you are unsure which is the part number, serial number etc, you can list them all here. As we manually process each customer request, we can check the numbers first.

After submitting the form, you will be forwarded to our payments page. Note that your request will not be actioned until payment is received.


Our service is inexpensive (only GBP 5.95) but it is not free. If you're looking for a free service, please don't waste your time sending us your information. On the other hand, we aim to give a good service to our paying customers, with the assurance of our money-back guarantee if we can't help you.
