I bought a 1999 Ml430 Mercedes and the previous owner disconnected the battery and does not have the code to reset the radio.

When I bought the car I did not realize that the radio had an anti-theft code. I did not get the owners manual from the owner so I do not have the radio code.

You can call Mercedes, any dealership and ask. They'll want the serial number on the radio, or the car Vin, or the title number. Just proof of ownership. They can give you the factory reset code.

If for radio code need to notify dealer with vin or vehicle and proof of ownership

Testimonial: "I contacted the company on-line over a week ago and no answer. The nearest dealer is nearly 100 miles away."

  • john h Jun 13, 2017

    if you have access to a fax or e-mail some dealers will allow copy of ownership and photo id to be authorized to get code ---notify and see it they will do it that way

When you disconnect your battery and then reconnect it again, it disables the radio. This is an anti-theft protection for your car radio.
The enable your radio the activation code is in your vehicle owner's manual. If you do not have this code you need to go to your Mercedes service centre and get them to enter this code for you.

Radio won't turn on asking for a code

Hello! When you purchased your Mercedes a card (similar to a bank card), which has the radio code stamped on, should have accompanied your owners manual. If not visit your dealership and they can give you the code. Turn on the radio, punch in the code, and radio will come on. Any time your battery is disconnected, when you power back up the radio code must be re-entered.

E55 radio code

If you typed the number in wrong more than twice it may be locked and won't take the number even when it's correct. You need to disconnect the battery again for more than 5 minutes and try again. If you typed it in correctly, the card might be from a previous radio (if you're not the original owner) or if it is the original radio, a mechanic may have swapped the card with another car by mistake. Either way, it's a trip to the dealer.
