Car radio code

[springbulb81]

just bought a ford van. but stereo needs a code. where do I go to get it decoded?

[Desperado]

Any stores which sell car/van stereos should be able to help. If not a little vandal I know told me to put the stereo in the freezer for 10 minutes and it's decoded. lol Not that I'm encouraging thieving.

The freezer thing is an urban myth - and does nothing except damage the radio.
Ask the people who you bought it from if they have a code
The original supplying dealer may have a record of it

Any ford dealer will sell you the code

go to any motor shop that sells parts and accesseries it will cost about a �10
