Sadly one must part with moooolar to get the information required.



Have you had a hair cut yet?

going price for a radio decode that requires the radio being plugged into a comp is ten quid, but if its an older car check the radio first, a lot of decoders will write the code on the INSIDE of the radio chassis so they can save time if it comes back :icon_winkle: and you will usually find it cheaper if you remove the radio yourself

If you have a stock stereo, the dealer can get the code from Jeep UK.

I called my nearest Jeep dealer (swansea or cardiff can't remember) and they gave me the code for free.

With recent security protocol forced on the main dealers you will find they will charge for this now...

I had the same problem on Sunday past due to a battery change and after a bit of net searching found this site

http://www.ukbookshelf.co.uk/ (http://www.ukbookshelf.co.uk/)

Emailed them at around 5pm and they had replied within half hour.  I gave them the required info and was emailed radio code.  All in all it was sorted from start to finish in a few hours and the code worked first time.

Had never heard of them before but based on my experience would recommend them.

Hope you get sorted.
