Turn ignition on, radio off.
Press and hold AS button. Turn set on.
Set should bleep and say 10- - - -
Let go of AS button.
Repeatedly press 1 to get the first digit on the screen.
Repeatedly press 2 to get second digit on the screen.
Repeatedly press 3 to get third digit on the screen.
Repeatedly press 4 to get fourth digit on the screen.
Press and hold the AS button until set bleeps and bursts into life.

hi mark post the serial number here and i will try my best to help you with the correct code

Hi bubblegum, thank you very much for trying to help,there are two different numbers on the radio
pa6-gf15
gm 13 107 918
hope one of these is the number you need ,if not i will try and take the radio out and look on the back.
Also do you know how to get it off 7SAFE so we can put in a different code .Regards Mark

hi the code i am getting from that serial number is 1086 but i think your serial number seems a bit short so if this code doesnt work then please check the serial number again. this is the one that starts with GM.
try leaving the power on your radio for at least an hour before you try to enter the code as this will hopefully reset the radio ready for code entry. if you have any further problems then post again. but please re check your serial number ok

hi mark
the other number i am getting up is 6115 but i dont want you to keep trying too many codes as you will end up locking your radio. i would suggest posting here www.usedcarmart.co.uk/forum/index.php?referrerid=31398
post there on the car audio section and ask moderator john1000 to help you out as he is good with vauxhalls. good luck and take care
