RDON Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 just need to find out if I need to take a trip to the robbing dealers to get the radio code!! I disconnected the battery today to take steering wheel off to do a bit of carbon look laminating on the controls and when I reconnected the battery the radio was asking for a code! I don't have one as I am second owner, so whats the verdict guru's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I did not realise that the Bose unit was coded. I have removed and installed hundreds of them with no coding issue. Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 That's weird, I had mine disconnect for several hours and the only thing the radio wanted was the radio tuned in again. Sorry, can't help you with the code mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonk Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Replaced my battery and no probs, though I seem to remember seeing something about the radio being coded to that specific car so something has to be done if it is put in another?.

wizurd Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yer I've replaced my battery and didn't have to put in a code. Odd. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 My old battery used to go flat all the time and I needed the code regularly. Nissan can provide them but the need the serial numbers etc from the back of the headunit to be able to provide the right one, so if you're in a position where you can photo the numbers yourself do it rather than allowing Nissan to charge loads to remove the thing.

Stutopia Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I read on here is paired to the ecu, so in and out fine, but different Zed it needs a code. Legal Disclaimer: I read this, I've not done it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
