arthurj Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Hello. I’ve just had a new battery connected. The head unit is now in this state - I assume it’s asking for a code of some sort. Does anyone know how I can reset the code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick85 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) No idea how to reset the code, sorry I cant help there, but using the Translate app it looks like its a password authentication prompt asking for Mothers maiden name, very doubtful you'll be able to find that info The 529175 number at the top is reading back as Serial No. if that helps you with your search.
