Mitsubishi Eclipse stock stereo states code needed

The Mitsubishi Eclipse rd stereo code 1889

Your stereo is on most likely on anti-theft, if its the stock stereo check the owners manual booklet, otherwise you'll have to ask the dealership

radio needs coding maybe

None of the mitsubishi cars stereos have the same code, I had this problem with the stock stereo on my 99 eclipse spyder, I removed the stereo and put an aftermarket in, but changed it back when I was trading the car in, You have to call mitsubishi customer sevice with the serial code number on the back of the radio, also you have to provide them with information to prove that you actually own the car.

You are going to have to do away with the actual amp that the car used with the stock radio.You will need to run wires directly to the speakers .

If it will accept the disc but not read it, you will need to replace the stereo or have it repaired. Dealerships use a radio service to repair these to keep costs down, so if you are out of warranty you might try contacting your dealer parts department and ask if they would do an exchange unit for you.

This is a common issue with the 06-09 eclipse radios.

They are very easy to find online. Just google wiring diagram for the make and model.

I've read that will work ok. The radio will change from locked to being ready for the code. Make sure you know the procedure for entering the code.

The codes are unique for each stereo. You should contac a mitsubishi dealer and they should be able to get with your car serial number.

is there anyway to get a stereo code for a 1997 mitsubishi eclipse spyder without going to the dealership??
