Ok.. Purchased a cd/ radio from good old ebay.. to replace the tape player in the wifes grot box..
Was told it came with a code.. and indeed it did.. apparently just not the one for this stereo as it doesnt work. When you enter the code it just beeps and the word code comes back up on the display... "code" then stays there for about a minute before reverting back to 0000 and allowing you to try again.
Not sure what Renault it came out of as it came from ebay.. but its going into a megane Scenic. Hoping you can help as the wife is giving me more earache from now not having a working stereo than when she only had a tape player and no tapes...lol...
IF YOU DONT HAVE KEY THEN PUSH THUMBWHEEL IN AND SOME HAVE {A} KEY
Turn on the radio and the display will show 'CODE' Use the steering controls for code entry. Press the [ ] button then rotate the thumb wheel for the correct first digit Press the [ ] button then rotate the thumb wheel for the correct second digit Press the [ ] button then rotate the thumb wheel for the correct third digit Press the [ ] button then rotate the thumb wheel for the correct fourth digit If the correct code is now shown on screen, press and hold the [ ] button for up to 10 seconds to store the code
FOR NO STEERING CONTROL press the first preset button for the 1st digit, second button for the 2nd digit third button for 3rd digit forth button for 4th digit then press buttons 6 OR 5 to store. for 10 seconds
note the radio does not lockout after a wrong code entry it only doubles the time to wait before the next retry...if a wrong code is entered it will display error then after the delay should display "0000")
