I'm among those group of desperate people who are trying to find the keycode of their Ford stereo. In my case, it's a 5000 RDS EON, with s/n M071653 p/n 96AP-18K876-BC. Any help would be very much appreciated!

try this website: http://carradiocodes4u.proboards100.com/index.cgi

if you post your serial number the guy who runs it will give you your unlock code for free, although yuo can make a dontaion if you feel that way inclined. very helpful.

(its a forum so you will need to register)

Thanks I'll check it out!

If it's a genuine unstolen radio then just pop down to your Ford dealer with it and the registration document for the car and they'll get it off the system for you.

If it's as bent as a nine bob note then tough, that's the whole idea of a keycode

Your code is .... ? I am able to calculate the code if you want, pm me if you dont want it on here for public view.(please try and prove its yours)

I'm happy to help with radio codes,but please try to prove your the owner of the radio, Kaiboy your registered as a stranger registered today with no details in your profile thats why i asked for confirmation of ownership.

Hope you use the forum more,happy motoring.

Code is 9562...press 5 to confirm once entered. Lets be honest, the Ford code system is so easy to crack its unbelievable. I'm sure any crook knows how to generate it.

Sure, anybody can generate the code with the correct software,but not everybody has the software even though its freely available,(obviously you have the software)so its good to help those people who dont.

What you have just done is broadcast kaiboy's code on a public forum without his consent (really helpful)Kaiboy chose not to have his code broadcast on a public forum but by PM maybe you should complain to Ford dealerships for charging £35 for a code (providing you have the reg documents)

You can use TIS aswell as M calc - the latter I think is the one your talking about. Lets be honest, how likley is it that someone's going to steal that exact radio just to use that code. He didn't say that he wanted it via PM, he just wanted the code so he can use his radio. Ford dealers tell you what it is over the phone without any details.
