Radio Code Issues - W202
I've got a 96 C280 - I'm the original owner (155k miles and counting - yeehaw!)
I recently disconnected the battery, which forced a radio code reset. After pulling out my original code card, which remains in it's original shrink wrapped package, I entered the 5 digit code. It didn't work. I tried it again, and again and rechecked the procedures in teh manual and tried it againa and again and again. UGH! Now I'm in 'code jail'. Why will my code not work? It's the original radio in the car and the MB provided original code? How long do I need to wait to try the code again (I've been through 2 10 minute wait cycles already - so I think this is the 24 hour one I am up against)? Can a dealer unlock this for me? Thanks for your help! Matt |

the radio was likely replaced at some point or the card is wrong, have you used this code code before? if you pull the unit, i can get you the correct code from the serial number on the radio

Orig Radio
Unless someone broke into the car and switched radios or info cards on me, they are all original.
The S/N on the info card is AL 2396 S 1238183 The code on the info card is 23631 Can someone confirm that this is not a misprint or something? How do I pull the radio to verify the S/N on the radio is the same S/N on the card? |
