Simple question

Featured Replies

Greetings to all, my apologies if i posted in the wrong section.

I have a simple question maybe you guys can help out with some info, i have a skoda fabia mk1 with symphony radio and i've lost my code the car audio still works because i did not disconnect the battery but if i do then the radio will ask for a code, so my question is if it's possible to press some combination of buttons to show me my code or somehow read it.

The car was bought from another country so going to a local dealer is not an option :( 

Thank you in advance.

Don't think so I'm afraid.

 The ECU will recognise the radio even after you disconnect the battery - just make sure the radio is set to 'KEY OFF' before you disconnect the battery as I think you will be asked for the code if the radio is turned on before the ihition is.

From the manual below:-

 

Security code
When the appliance is turned OFF and
the ignition key taken out, a blinking LED
, if this has not been turned OFF in the
set-up menu, draws attention to this theft
protection. This electronically prevents
the appliance being started by unauthor-
ised persons in another vehicle.
If you did not receive any appliance-
specific security code, your vehicle is
equipped with a comfort coding system
for which you do not require any code. If
disconnecting and reconnecting the bat-
tery, first switch on the ignition with the
key in the ignition switch and only then
turn on the radio. If you nevertheless still
wish to have the code, please ask your
Skoda dealer.
Comfort radio coding
When used first, the comfort coding 
stores the code number not only in the
radio, but also in the vehicle. If the
vehicle’s voltage is now interrupted, the
radio, when next put into operation, will
compare the internal number with the
number in the vehicle. If these two 
numbers agree, the radio is directly
ready for operation without restriction.
The code number is only queried if the
two numbers do not agre

Thank you for the info, i will try to go into the menu to see if i have an option "key off", before losing the code i replaced the battery and after that my radio asked for a code but now if i disconnect i'm afraid it will ask again, to bad there is no option to see the code :(
