Default Radio Unlock Help needed

Need a little help after having my car worked on and the battery disconnected my radio is now in the world of LOC

I have followed the instructions got my 6 digits code called the 800number and they give me a four digit code.

This is where it all goes to hell. Just for an example the last code I was given was 4057.

So here is my problem and it is making me feel like an idiot.

I hit the min and hour key and it starts out with Triple 000

I then hit the HR key and cycle through I get 9 hit one more time and bam I am now able to enter four digits the only problem now is that first digit will not go past the number 1.

Once I get to 19 on the first two digits I hit HR and it goes back to triple 000.

I have attached a couple pics showing what is going.

I know i am probably missing something simple but I'm lost and annoyed that I can't figure it out.

Thanks for any help!

Well, still valuable info. I've disconnected the battery many times and not had to do it- I guess it retains some juice for a little bit of time. But, good to know!
