    Steve McCarthy Dec 11, 2008

    I recently replaced my battery on my Mondeo and now the radio is asking for a code. I have taken it out and written down the number - M055382 . Is there any way I can get the code for it?

    Thanks

Pull the radio out and record the model number and the serial number off the radio chassis, along with your VIN number and the radio numbers go to your local Ford dealer and ask them nicely to look up your theft deterrent code for your radio, most will do it for free.

Radio code
bad news. you didn't read the operators guide in the glove box.
it says , dont pull battery or run it dead or the radio codes are lost.
it says, get the radio code first day you get car.
when the car was new, in the gove box was also a code card.
if all that is lost?
you must take the radio serial number to the dealer ....
it says that too.
the operators guide is free,

Lost radio code
Radio lock out codes are security related, and each code is unique to the car and the radio in that car, and that unique code was supplied with the original paper work when the car was delivered to the original owner to discourage theft, so they are not published on the internet, if they were what would be the point?? any thief could get the code after stealing your radio. Contact the dealer for instructions and what info u need to get your cars unique radio code. The dealer will require the serial number off the radio and proof of ownership of the car it came from.

Lost the radio code!!...
there is no general code, it would make theft too easy, get the serial no off the radio,and the car, the dealer probably will charge you a service charge
