Ford Radio code

[PEARLMUDDLER]

Hello

I was wondering does anyone in Caithness decode Ford car stereos? I have a Ford Fiesta on which the battery was disconnected and I have no record of the radio code. I have checked online how to get the serial number of the side of the stereo.....but it looks like you have to take most of the dashboard apart. I only wondered could anyone decode the radio without having to remove the stereo......any ideas most welcome.

Thanks

Overloch in Wick at the top of the hill coming up from the harbour sorted mine out a few years ago.

Turn on the unit
Hold down buttons 6 and 1, and then release 6 (keep 1 pressed).
The unit will then cycle through a load of stuff. The first screen ends with the serial number of the device:
