GM DELCO THEFTLOCK RADIO UNLOCK CODE:
1. Press and hold presets 2 and 3 for about 5 to 10 seconds until you
get 3 digits on your display. This is the first 3 of 6 digits you will
need, so write 'em down.
2. After doing step one and writing down the code, immediately press
the
AM/FM button to get the last 3 of the 6 numbers you'll need, and write
'em down. (if you wait too long between steps 1 and 2 and the LOC code
displays again, just start over).
3. Call this number, it's a prerecorded message, so don't worry about
having to talk to anyone...1-800-537-5140. The voice will ask if
you're
calling for Chevy, Pontiac, Cadillac, etc... When you here him tell
you
to press "2" for Pontiac, press 206010 and hit the # key. He'll ask
you
for the 6 digit code that you've written down. Enter that and press
the
* key. He will then give you a code, and the option to get additional
4
digit codes, but one should be sufficient.
4. Follow the normal procedure in your owners manual for unlocking the
radio with your new code...press the hour set button on your radio
until
you get the first two numbers of the code, then press the minute set
button until you've entered the last two numbers. Immediately press
the
AM/FM button once the correct code is entered and the code SEC or
"secured" will be displayed on the display screen. Now, just turn the
radio on, and your ready to roll.
There is an additional step you can take to remove all codes from the
radio and start from scratch by entering your own personalized 4 digit
code so that it won't get you in a pickle again! Just repeat step 4
and
you should get a display screen that reads ---. This means the code is
out, and you can now program your own code. Of course, once you
receive
the 4 digit code from the GM recorded message, just keep it in a safe
place, because you can use that same code again and again should you
have any more problems with it in the future. Good luck, and yes, it
does work.

As far as I know there is no code on a Nissan factory radio. Check the fuses for the radio.

SOURCE: BMW Z3 WRONG UNLOCK RADIO CODE HOW TO GET THE RIGHT ONE

If the radio is displaying code wait, or wait, then the ignition and radio must remain on for 1hour. I would contact a dealer within the USA and provide them with your radio serial number. The serial number can be displayed in the radio by pressing and holding down the "M" button while turning on the ignition.

• A module which communicates on the class 2 serial data circuit which supplies VIN information to the radio is replaced and not properly setup with the correct VIN information for that vehicle. The only way to unlock the radio is by using a scan tool.

Reset code to unlock my radio

http://www.DelcoLockCodes.com will get you your radio unlock code for $5.00.
Contact a GM dealer, preferably the selling dealer. They may have the code stored in their computer system if they sold the car. Otherwise you are probably going to have to remove the radio and get the Serial # off the radio. With this serial # the GM dealer will provide the code.

I have a 1997 Chevy cavalier Radio LOC. I changed the battery this morning now the radio is LOC. Can you help?

My dealer wants $85 for the code. Another dealer - 2 hrs away - wants $50. This looks more like a GM money-maker than a security feature.

Unlock radio for a 1996 monta carlo?

hi friend,
Your car has a anti theft radio in it . What has happened is at one time some one entered a code into the radio. What you are going to need to do is stop at your GM dealer and have them unlock the radio. The charge will be approx 30$ (that's what my dealer charges) Make sure you specify that you want the old code removed. Also ask them for the four digit backup code they get when they call GM. They will press numbers 2 and 3 on your radio and get digits then they will press am fm button and get two more digits and with those digits they will call a 1-800 number that only GM can call and they will get the unlock code. Sorry but I cannot divulge the number. Big TROUBLE!!! Hope I have helped
UNLOCK Code is:
1761
Ignition ON
Hold Minutes for first numbers
Hold Hours for last numbers
Press AM/FM Button
Turn ON Radio

hope this helps u
please rate me.................
thank u for using fixya

My radio this morning would not work, a code of -

They cannot do this over the phone./and won't..they dont know you or if anything is stolen.
Procedure..
Stop at a chevy dealer or any GM dealer,they can retrieve a backup code out of the radio..by pushing some buttons.
Then they call in to the delco center using the backup code and obtain a new unlock code.
They can enter the code to unlock the radio.
If by chance a code has been entered incorrectly 3 or more times,then they will have to let the car sit with the key in the on postion for an hour before entering new codes.
