Thread: Radio Code LOCKED- Any fixes?

Give Range Rov in Mitcham a call 03 98743111, they may be able to help??

Try a dealer, using the VIN code they should be able to look it up.
That's what I tried with mine, except they couldn't identify the vehicle from the VIN, they kept telling me that the VIN didn't exist, turned out as my 130 was more than 10 years old it was know longer on the system

The dealer and RangeRov have both told me that you can only enter the code 10 times then you have to throw the perfectly good radio away.

I am really impressed.

for real..........there must be a way around it, looks like you will be purchasing a fully sic unit

Google you make & model of radio with "code lock" ... has to be a "master code" available from the manufacturer

It doesn't let you enter anything. I think the idea is that you cannot steal it, Google a code to enter in it and away you go with your easy listening.

Except the idiots at Land Rover fit a radio that nobody would want to steal in a car fitted with an alarm with motion sensors. Goes with the locking wheel nuts so good that the adapter key breaks while you are in the Simpson fixing a flat.

At least I can now fit something with iPod connection, etc but lose the steering wheel controls.

But I am still happy to hear from anyone, who may have fractured a few laws in their day, that can fix my radio.
