Ford Stereo Radio Code
If your looking for the activation code for your ford stereo then you’ve come to the right place. You will need the code for your stereo if you are reinstalling it or if you had a flat battery.
Ford service centres are more than happy to help, oh! and they will charge you for your code.
I wasn’t about to do that, so I searched the net but to no avail. Finally I came across a little program that calculates your stereo code once you have popped in your radio serial number. This program worked for me, I hope it works for you guys too.
I only have the software for A, L, C and M series stereos and I have only used the M series software and instructions .
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE SOFTWARE AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO FIND YOUR CODE. ENJOY

Can you please help me with instructions how to unlock my radio. There is only LOCKED on it. Disconecting from batery did not help. How to get to stage that radio is asking for CODE?
Peter,
Normally it starts with asking the unlock code.
When you use the right code, it will unlock
If you don’t see that, you have a serious problem.
Maybe tried to much?
Try to push all the buttons till you see code….
Then put in the right code.
If you don’t have the right code, you can ask it here.
When you do, give the serial so we can find it for you.
Goodluck.
William

Hi Guys,
I’m not good with technology.
I bought an old Ford Estate LX (97) off my neighbour, but the stereo is locked.
It has a message running across it that says ‘5256JGM Escort’.
It’s a 6000CD Tuner and the serial number on the back is:
M190274
Please help me out, it’s bad enough driving an old banger, but no music, that’s torture!!!!
Cheers,
Julie.x
Dennis,
Your code is: 5969
Happy Holidays
Julie,
Your code is: 4333
Happy Holiday and save driving to you

I will go out and try it now.
Is the code all I need to put in there, and do I have to tap each number out on the first four keys?
Cheers,
Julie.
this key will unlock the radio.
and you need the 4 keys and the 5th key to confirm.
Goodluck!
Cheers,
William
Hi William,
Thank you so much for this. It worked first time.
For some reason only the radio works though - the CD ejects with the message ‘check CD’. Tried it with all types.
Never mind, I’m just made up that it works!
Have a fantastic X’mas!
Julie.

Try a cleaning cd, you could buy this at any recordshop.
But i am glad your radio is working
