Did work - holding in the ~ button for about 10 seconds. The display then resets itself from ---- (locked) to **** and you can put the correct code in!

Thanks, mate! I was just geting desperate reading all the posts saying just how much I'd have to pay to get my radio unlocked... :)

Great job, it work to me too... I have peugeot 306 1998. too, and I was very wise too to check with some random codes, which results with locked radio. The ~ button is magic button. I press it few seconds, and magic word appears. Unlock code . My code is 1111, btw, not 0000.

Tnx, Tnx, Tnx... Great post, great help....

Thanks for all the advice. To put an end to this thread and for everyone elses benefit, I will let you know what didn't work, and what did! Didn't work - disconnecting the battery again Any of those websites leaving the radio on for more than 30 mins Did work - holding in the ~ button for about 10 seconds. The display then resets itself from ---- (locked) to **** and you can put the correct code in!

What's next? My friend decided to block my radio six months ago and I've yet to find out a way to get the right code in. Now, following your instructions, I got the right code in but it's still stuck? It just shows the code but nothing else happens, I've tried to push every button and turned the radio off but it proceeds nowhere! And I'm going crazy, I finally thought I'd have it working but no...

Car mechanic myself, but this mystery is too much for even me to solve :P

Or could it be I now need to keep the damn thing on for that 30min-2hours, and/or, remove the battery, been there, done that... And it's quite impossible here in Finland, in January, with polar bears roaming the streets and all :)

HELP!!
