Put new battery in and the radio wants a code, no idea what it is and I've no way of getting at the serial number on the actual unit, I've tried the holding down 6 and pushing 1/2 but all that comes up is this:

07-02-00
CD

DP MV SH
0 or O


50700012
255


Which from what I remember isn't right, should start with a M or something

Any ideas?
 
Mine was on a little slip of paper/ticket in my Ford Mondeo Owners manual/service booklet. Otherwise you will need to take the unit out, get the sn and go to Ford. I am pretty sure they will charge you more than a new head unit is though. There was a guy that was on the money saving expert forum that could do them for a freebie but I don't know if he still does it.
 
I can get the code using a bit of software I got from the internet a long while ago, as long as the serial number has an M in it and it's the older round type of 6000cd like in the MK2 mondeo etc.

You don't really need the keys, just something thin and metal to poke down the hole and out away from the unit to release the locking clips.
 
Turn on the unit
Hold down buttons 6 and 1, and then release 6 (keep 1 pressed).
The unit will then cycle through a load of stuff. The first screen ends with the serial number of the device:
Mxxxxxx

My 6000cd radio worked with this so would be odd if yours didn't. M codes there are plenty of websites that will calculate it for you. V code you can buy for £3 or so.
