Would be better if the radio did not have the TheftLock feature activated, but you could try some of the suggestions in one of these files:

The 800 number has been reported as not working anymore, but take a look at this Thread for another solution. It is not free, but $19.99 seems reasonable compared to what dealers usually quote.
When you solve this, I suggest you disable the locking feature right away. At this point, it only brings headaches.

Had a Hummer stereo locked and couldn't find a work around. I wouldn't buy it thinking you're going to successfully unlock it for free. My local dealer wanted $125 to unlock, but with some haggling I got it done for $75.
