| Headunit in 'Safe' Mode... Having disconnected the battery in order to reset the engine management light after my recent dabble with atmos DV, I now have a non-functioning Stereo which is in safe mode. I take it the code to unlock isnt readily available anywhere and that the dealer has to reset it?

| When I needed the radio code the dealer needed the serial no of the radio and had to contact the factory to get the code. Only a quick phone call though.

| Code If you have no joy at the dealers then try any auto-electrician and the can plug it upto a computer and reprogramme it for a small charge. |

| Briskodian | Depending on how old the car is, it will turn itself off using codes built into the car. Start the car and don't touch the radio for a minute then turn it on and leave it but drive for a few minutes. It might come on. |
