Have an issue with the standard AU1 Radio in my work ute.
To cut a long story, 1. Replaced battery 2. Thought I remembered the security code for the radio. 3. Thought I knew it 4 or 5 times. 4. Pucked it up 4 or 5 times. 5. Now the radio will not let me enter the code. Flashes "Err". 6. Disconnected battery for approx 1 minute. 7. Still will not let me enter the code. Can someone please tell me how I can fix this. I am sick of hearing my own voice trying to sing!!!!! Thanks heaps Darren |

go and find out the code first.. then leave the car accessory's on without starting it for about 15 minutes and it will let you reenter the code. The more you get it wrong the longer it waits till you can put it in again.. so make sure you have the right code

Write the code on the unit chassis in marker pen - no-one is going to nick one of those now.

maybe owners of AU's that have stuffed 6 stacker's :P
Haha I come across this problem just today, swapped the battery out and needed the code... and it was not written in the book! little did i know after owning my AU for a bit over 3 months now... a trip to the dealer's sorted it out. ![]()

I know this is an old thread, but ive just bought an AU3 with CD player and i was wondering where i can get the code?
Does the ford dealer have it? if so how do they go about sourcing it? No log books, not even sure if its the original stereo head unit... |

If the radio is the original one for the car (and it usually is) the code for it is "connected" to the VIN number. Go to Ford, give them proof of ownership and sometimes $20 if they are a pain and they can give you the code for the radio by typing it in to their magic computer system.

ok cheers, I Emailed Fadi at 11:30 the other night and checked my email on the way to work, he had already replied. "ERR" was flashing and last night i left the ACC on for 30 minutes, but no "code" appeared on the stereo.
Then when i got to work it popped up. I entered the code and we have lift off. Then in the arvo when the sun got low i pulled down the visor and in tiny numbers in pen in the top corner of the visor was the code! ![]() All is good. Thanks for the help.

My old AUII single disc unit actually had the code on the sticker on the back of the unit ... and as far as I knew it hadn't been removed from the ute previously. If you have the removal tools, slide the unit out and check there first if you can.

sorry for reviving an old thread, but i am having problems with my AU2 CD player.
The Radio and cassett player work perfectly, buy when i load a CD the red light goes on, it says TR00 and then you hear it spining etc but spits it out soon after. I have not tried a lense cleaner but if it doesnt even read a cd it probably wont even read one of them. Any ideas? Is it stuffed?!?!? |
