The battery went flat (I mean dead flat) on my wife's BMW Z3 year 2000 and I have got locked out of the radio, CODE WAIT. I have removed the radio from her car so hopefully without power it will reset the CODE to 0000
Radio is a BMW Business RDS 65.12 - 8 379 230 PH7850Y1468280 KW 10/00 Index: 00 *22DC785/24*
Can anyone help with the code number please, 4 digits I think?
Thanks for your reply, I suspect BMW may require the car to be taken in .... for a good FEE of course! Not sure I trust some of these online services, any you can recommend?
The best option is a Radio Decoding Service who will open up the radio to electronically "read" the code in the memory chip (eeprom).
Expect to pay around £25
This method will definitely give you a working radio whereas codes from the BMW Dealer database are often incorrect for a variety of reasons....and they do not usually offer any money back guarantee if they do not work,
