If your code was 8765, then press button '1' 8 times to the first character is 8, then press '2' 7 times etc until the screen says your number, then press '5'.

good god, brace yourself...


'To enter the code, turn key to ON or ACC position and press the ON/VOL control.
The word CODE will appear on the display. Enter your four digit code by pressing the appropriate preset
buttons in sequence.(1'2'3'4'5) Your radio is now ready for basic operations.'

scalpel  hehe


However... if invalid code is entered into radio it will give 2 more attempts. The 3rd fluffed entry will set the lockup mode.
In this mode it must be in a state where battery is applied for 30mins, (leave running?)
During this time, if the radio is on, it will say WAIT. After 30mins it will say CODE...
note; key must be at ON or ACC.


I copied it so it can't be wrong
good luck

:)

Phone a Jeep dealer and give them the serial number off the set and they will get the code from the manufacturer.

Ask about the cost if you do ring the main dealer though..

also be aware that if the radio has had its code read before, some radios decoded with some equipment will write a different code so the dealer suplied code may not work. could also explain why the code you have don't work
