Ford radio code: everything you need to know
The Ford car radio security code is a 4- or 6-digit code that unlocks your radio after a power interruption. Ford uses two types of codes: a V-code (starting with "V") for older systems and an M-code for newer systems. After a battery change, your Ford radio will display "CODE" or "ENTER CODE".
At RadioCodeLookup.com you can request both Ford V-codes and M-codes. The required serial number is on a sticker on the side or top of the radio. This is visible after removal from the dashboard, or in some cases via the radio system menu.
Our service covers all common Ford models, from the Focus and Fiesta to the Mondeo, Transit and Galaxy. Enter your details and receive your Ford car radio code directly by email.

Guide
Where do you find your Ford code?
1
Retrieve the V-code or M-code via the display
Turn on the ignition so the radio shows "CODE". For 2004 and newer radios (6000 CD, Sony, 4500 RDS): hold buttons 1 and 6 simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds — the V-code will scroll across the display (e.g. V136429). For older models before 2004: use buttons 2+6 for the M-code (e.g. M123456).
2
Note the V- or M-code
Write down the full code: letter V or M followed by 6 digits. Cannot retrieve it via the display (e.g. Ford 4000 RDS or older)? Remove the radio using four semi-round Ford extraction pins (PC5-132) and read the code from the label on the side or bottom.
3
Enter the code
Enter your V-code or M-code below. Note: Ford allows a maximum of 10 attempts. After 10 wrong attempts the radio shows "LOCKED" and a dealer reset is required.
Expected format
e.g. M123456 or V349816The code consists of the letter M or V followed by 6 digits. Find it via the display (buttons 1+6) or on the radio label.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Ford radio codes
Everything you need to know about retrieving and entering your Ford car radio unlock code.
What is the difference between a Ford V-code and an M-code?
A Ford V-code is a 6-digit code starting with the letter V, used for radio systems built before approximately 2000. The M-code is a newer system with a different serial number format. At RadioCodeLookup.com you provide your serial number and we automatically look up the correct code.
How do I find the serial number of my Ford car radio?
On most Ford models, the serial number is on a sticker on the side of the radio, visible after removal. On some newer Ford models you can also retrieve the serial number via the audio system menu. Consult your Ford manual for the exact method.
Why does my Ford Focus or Fiesta ask for a radio code?
The Ford car radio is equipped with a built-in anti-theft lock that activates after every power interruption. This is a standard security system in virtually all Ford passenger cars and vans up to and including 2014. You need the code after a battery change or electrical repair.
How do I enter the radio code on my Ford Mondeo or Transit?
Use preset buttons 1 through 6 (or 1 through 4) to enter the digits of the code. Each digit increases with each press of the button. Confirm the entry by pressing the "OK" button or the "Tune" button. Consult your Ford manual for the exact method for your model.
Can I request the Ford radio code from the dealer?
Yes, a Ford dealer can retrieve the code, but this often takes several days and involves costs. Via RadioCodeLookup.com you receive the same code directly, without having to take the car to the dealer.
How quickly will I receive the Ford radio code via RadioCodeLookup.com?
After payment, you will receive your Ford car radio code automatically by email, usually within 30 seconds. The service works 24/7, also at weekends and on public holidays, so you never have to wait long.
Which Ford radio systems are supported by RadioCodeLookup.com?
RadioCodeLookup.com supports the most commonly used Ford radio systems, including models from Sony, Blaupunkt and Ford's own systems (RDS-EON, 6000 CD, 6006 CDC). Enter your serial number to check if your specific radio is supported.
What do I do if my Ford radio shows "WAIT" or "LOC"?
The message "WAIT" or "LOC" means that too many incorrect codes have been entered and the radio is temporarily blocked. Leave the radio switched on for 1 hour. After that you can try again. Then enter the correct code from RadioCodeLookup.com.
