Frequent questions

The most common doubts based on what the people ask us by chat.

There is a limit of ten tries when entering a code. After you reach the limit, the radio enters in "Locked" status. To reset it, hold button 6 for ten seconds. It will bring you another three attempts, but take care if you spend it too, the radio is going to be permanently locked with "Locked 13" message.

I have bad news for you, "Locked 13" tells us that your 6000 CD has a "permanent" lock. In this case, it is more profitable to buy another unit from eBay than to try to fix it.

"Wait" status appears after you enter a wrong code. To be able to enter another code, let the radio running for 30 minutes.

There are three types of 6000 CD radios. The first one, 6000 CD RDS EON (1998 - 2004), doesn`t display the serial on the screen. You should remove it. The second, fabricated between 2004 and 2008, sometimes shows it, others times not. Only the newer version, made from 2008 to 2015 shows every time the serial on the screen.

Generating a Ford 6000 CD code serial v or m is not free on the website, but if you really need it and cannot pay, you can ask us for it by chat.

Excellent. I'd say 99 percent of bad reviews are from people who don't know how to put the code in. On my ford, you only use the buttons 1-4 to input the code. So if your radio code is 6345 , you have to press the number 1 button six times.. the number 2 button three times... the number 3 button four times etc
