I own a 2001 corvette coupe, i disconnected the battery and when i reconnected it the radio went to lock mode and I don't have any code. I went to the dealer to get it unlocked, they said they could do it and it will only take 1 minute but they wanted $75 dollars. i couldn't believe it $75 dollars to push a couple of buttons on the radio, it is just ridiculous, talk about getting ripped off. So i refused to pay it, so here I am is there anyone that know what i have to do to get the radio off lock mode? any help will be appreciated?
Did you get it unlocked? If not I can give you the info, but you have to have the 3 digit code that was assigned by the original owner. If you have the owners manual, they probably wrote it down inside.
Did you try recalibrating the key/remote. I've disconnected my battery twice when I've been away. Both times my cd locked and I got it working again by pushing the lock and unlock buttons on the remote at the same time and holding for 7 seconds. I've had to do it more than once the second time I came home. From now on I'm going to use a battery maintainer.
I have the instructions on how to do it. I have to dig it up, then I'll email you.
That sound great, thank you for taking the time and making the effort to help me out, If you could e-mail me any information or instructions on how to unlock the radio it would really be appreciated. tommyvisionsbar@hotmail.com
