I had an old 80's Ford Stereo that had been sat unused in the garage for 15 years. Managed to power it up but code locked out. Googled these guys but was very sceptical. Ford forums had used them before and were genuine. I entered the serial number and the code came back instantly. Put it in the car and boom it worked. Couldn't believe it and it only cost a fiver.

Fast, accurate and very cheap! A great resource. The car is an L reg Corsa, even the dealers were reluctant to help. The radio is now on!

Having replaced the battery on my Focus, them found that there was no radio code in any of the original sales documentation. Ford wanted £20 to get the code, which considering they had not supplied in the first place is a cheek. Once I found the serial no. then went on line to ASW and typed in the no. got a reply within a few seconds. Went out to the car inserted the code and bingo. Excellent service and for a quarter of the price. Well done. Thanks

Smart Serial Number's

Smart car radios will normally contain a 14 digit serial number which can be found either printed on a label or engraved on the side of the unit.

These serials are only visible once the Smart radio has been removed from the vehicle.

Examples of serials include:



Further information on decoding your Smart car radio.

Using our Smart radio decoding system, you are not only saving money, but also time and the hassle which is involved. Most vehicle main dealers require you to book in your vehicle and take the car and proof of ownership along before they apply for the radio code.
Usually the code will be based on your vehicle registration or Chassis number which can mean you are not getting the code for the current unit fitted to the car, especially if the radio has been replaced at any stage in its lifetime.

There are a number of reasons why a stereo code based on the vehicles chassis number or registration may not work, these include:


At Radio-Code, we provide radio codes based on the unique serial number of the car radio, regardless of what it was fitted to originally.  Our radio codes have proven to be more accurate than main dealer's because of this.



What our customers have to say...

I just wanted to say thanks for providing this awesome service. I just bought a 2002 Land Rover and the battery was dead, and the dealer didn't know the code, and no 'code cards' were in the owners manual. Land Rover wanted to charge me $110 dollars to retrieve the code, and wanted to keep my car for an hour. You guys helped me solve this problem at a fraction of their cost and in just 5 minutes! Thanks again! . Philip Walker


Iphone application review When my Chrysler dealership changed hands all records of my car radio codes were lost and I've been put off getting the codes from another dealership as I heard of the high fees involved! But with idecodes I paid just ?8.99 and the car radio code was found and worked first time!!! I now have sound again and it's all thanks to this awesome program - 5 stars! Regards, From iPhone 3G... . Peter Garrido
