There ahould be an "m" button on the radio, near the tuning buttons. If you press the "m" button for more than 10 seconds, it will display the radio serial number. With the serial number, I can look up your radio code.

I'm not sure why you felt it nessecary to leave me negative feedback, I'm just trying to help you out.

 

Your radio is most likely in code wait. This happens when the incorrect code is entered 3 times. to clear the code wait, the key needs to be left in position 1 for 1 hour. this is the only way to clear "code wait". It's just part of the antitheft function.
