Volkswagen


Please note that code entry is only possible when "1000" is shown in the display. If the display continually shows "SAFE" then the unit may be codelocked and will need to be left switched on up for up to two hours to reset before another code entry attempt is possible. If it does not reset after this time, then all of your code entry attempts may have been used up, and the unit will need to be sent to us to be decoded and reset.

If you have lost your radio code, we can decode and reset this radio, but you will need to send the unit to our workshop for this work to be carried out. Approx turnaround time is 48 hours from receipt to dispatch.

Removal of the radio is fairly straightforward. The removal tools are inserted into the two vertical slots at the edges of the fascia until a click is felt. These slots are not immediately obvious, but are located between some of the buttons. The Left slot is down the left edge of the ">" and "<" buttons, and the right slot is on the right edge of the "Dolby" and "TA" Button. The radio can then be withdrawn and the leads unplugged.
