⚠️ IMPORTANT WARNING - READ BEFORE BUYING

You MUST send a clear photo of the original manufacturer label affixed to the metal casing or a clear photo of the serial number displayed on screen (retrieved by pressing and holding preset buttons 1 and 6, or 2 and 6 together). We do NOT accept manually typed serial numbers. Serial Number is NOT the Part Number! The Serial Number is a unique 7-character code beginning with M or V followed by 6 digits (for example, M123456 or V123456), stamped into the metal chassis or printed on the white factory sticker. The Part Number (such as YS4F-18C815-AA or XS4F-18C815-AA) identifies the hardware model. If the label is missing, defaced, altered, or unreadable, do not order this service.

DIGITAL SERVICE - NO PHYSICAL SHIPPING

Welcome to our dedicated automotive audio security service. If the factory stereo in your Ford commercial van or passenger car displays "CODE - - - -" following a flat battery, alternator replacement, or jump-start, this service delivers the genuine factory radio unlock code PIN to restore your sound system.

Product & Unit Identification

This service covers the original Visteon manufactured Ford 6000 CD head unit built in the classic 1.5 DIN rectangular shape with rounded corners. The stereo features an internal single-disc CD player, AM/FM radio tuner, and RDS EON functionality. An authentic 4-digit Anti-Theft security PIN key is required to release the electronic lockout.

How It Works

  1. Turn on your Ford 6000 CD radio unit.
  2. Press and hold radio preset buttons 1 and 6 together for three seconds to cycle data on screen until your 7-character serial starting with M or V appears (e.g. M123456). If on-screen retrieval is not supported by your firmware, use standard radio removal keys to slide the unit forward and inspect the Visteon label on the metal casing.
  3. Complete your purchase on eBay for this digital security decoding service.
  4. Send an eBay message attaching a clear photo of the on-screen serial number or the complete chassis label.
  5. Your factory 4-digit Anti-Theft security PIN unlock key will be delivered directly via eBay messages.

Important Information

The Anti-Theft PIN is calculated directly from the manufacturer database using your verified M-Series or V-Series serial number. Enter the 4-digit code using preset buttons 1, 2, 3, and 4 (press button 1 repeatedly for the first digit, button 2 for the second, button 3 for the third, button 4 for the fourth), then press preset button 5 to confirm and unlock. If your radio display reads "WAIT 30" or "LOCKED", repeated incorrect codes were entered previously. Please never exhaust all 10 or 13 attempts (which causes permanent "LOCKED 13" failure). Please verify that the internal circuit board has not been desoldered or modified by unauthorized repair shops, as altered hardware cannot accept original factory codes.
