Radio Code for Symphony Radio

catlazer · 3rd April 2008, 23:24

I have a Alpine Symphony Radio Cassette & I am wondering if it has a code as I want to remove it to put my own cd player in. I cant find one in any of the paperwork I got with car. I have only had car a month.

Can anyone help?

I found these on the web http://www.radio-code.co.uk ,cost me £15 but worked 1st time. A bit expensive but much better than no radio plus I now have the code for next time!

You might find that the code has not been enabled meaning that when you replace it you do not need to input the code. That is what happened with mine and I have the code for mine. Sods law probably states if you do not have the code then it will require it!

Agreed - the majority of Symphony radios do not have their codes enabled from the factory. If you are replacing the headunit with an aftermarket one then the code is probably of little consequence at the moment unless you plan on selling the Symphony.

Have you considered buying a CD Changer for the Symphony? We have how-to's and plenty of information on here if you like.

Im putting in my pioneer unit with touch screen. I am seling the symphony but keep getting asked for radio code. I think the guy I got car from upgraded it from the standard radio.
