Radio code

Nov 10, 2003 9 Replies

Hi, I've got a "Gelhard" stereo in a Pug bought from auction, was running ok but then the battery was run flat one night, now it needs a code & guess what, we have no paper work with the car! Checked on the body & it's not written there, does anyone know of a Gelhard site or address? I've looked around & can't find anything, if I do find something I hope they don't charge like Ford, don't think the unit is worth it!



Cheers


If its an original stero for the Pug (ie. not been changed since production), then your Pug garage may/should be able to help. They provided me with the necessary radio code when we bought our car from them (they did it free as they didn't know the number when they gave us the car and had to do a lookup).

Unfortunatly no, it's a replacement, I do have one I can sling in that will work for the moment, seems a shame to throw a perfectly good one though!!

Do you have a model number for it?

One final thing (honest!), there are some places that can do it for you - one such place is

£30 for a collect and return service. They're based in Croydon, and can do it there for £20 if you bring it in.

Ta, I'll look into contacting the manufacturer first :)

Have you taken the radio out at all? - might be worth doing so and having a look at the casing - I had a similar problem with a S/H car and found the previous owner had written the radio code on the casing with a felt-tip .....!

have done, no such luck!!
