CD player acquired, code required.

Gingerposer · Post by **Gingerposer** » 14 Aug 2010, 08:56

Folks, I bought a cd unit to replace the tape player in my Xantia, cos much as I like the Smashing Pumpkins, it's wearing a bit thin listening to only one tape day in , day out.
So, having got this cd player, I now need to get the code for it. Here are hopefully some photos of it, can someone tell me what make it is and how to get the code?

Cheers,

Ainslie

30 quid for a code? that's more than half the cost of the player! Think I'll wander over to the dealer. What info will the dealer require?

What about Old-Guy's codebreaker? Free, and you could always shout him a pint or equivalent once it's sorted.

Out of Idle Interest I stuck your Radio details into An old Codex reader I have................

after 5 attempts it continually threw up the codes 1636 .... 2544...& 5241

Now whether this'll work I don't know ..but it'll do NO HARM to TRY IT!!!

Clarion base their coding on 4 Digits of the serial number ( But I cannot remember WHICH 4 so

Yer First 4 Generated the code ...........1636

Yer second 4 Generated the code.........2544

Yer Third 4 Generated the Code..........5241

one of those WILL WORK .... but I don't know WHICH ONE!!!
