  • Ford Fiesta, 08 - Radio replacement 28 Sep 2013 (Forum)
    Hi, Have a problem with my radio. Just want to hear other ideas before I replace. The radio is asking for the code. I have the correct code for the serial number, but whenever it is entered, nothing happens. And it simply asks for code again. Occasionally the radio will work for a short period
