Do you have the correct code, and its input procedure?

To obtain the code, if you need it, this site works:
https://www.radio-code.co.uk/PU1561A-Ci ... guide.html
Site also contains code entry instructions.
Input the unit's 14-digit full serial number, pay the small fee, and get the code.

Band needs pressing for 5secs+.

Sorry to have to say this, but you really do need to be a tad more communicative, out of politeness to others trying to help, if nothing else.

There are many websites that offer to translate a radio serial number into its code, so you might need to explore some of them. I quoted that website, simply because it has worked successfully by several of us in the past.

I didn't mean to be rude. I just showed that this site can no longer fulfill this type of request. Only that.

I was a little busy and just forgot to type "Thank you"

Sorry

Ok, so better than waiting 30 hours and at least you know for future reference - enter the code slowly and surely to avoid a lockout - each time the code is entered wrongly, the time increases before you can try again.
