Free Ford Radio Code Forum

Hi guys hope someone can help me
Iv just bought my boyhood dream car an Escort cosworth but can't get the 2008 radio cassette working
The display is saying code and 3 solid dashes, I don't know the code and it can't be entered because apparently it needs to be taken to a dealer as its locked?
The sticker on the side has a number under the bar code 7C016390 and another number 91AB-18K876-AA
Thanks

try code 189

Thanks but how do I input it as pressing any of the number buttons does not change the screen from code and 3 solid lines. Shouldn't they be flashing?

Try leaving it switched (without interruption) on for a couple of hours to see if the screen resets.

If not then it will have to be taken into a Radio Decoding Service to be unlocked
