First you need to get a number code from the radio. Hit the number 2 and 3 preset buttons at the same time, after 5-10 second a 2 or 3 digit number will appear. Write down then hit the am/fm button for the 2nd half of the number. Once you have it call GM, 1-800-537-5140, when prompted hit 102107*, the automated voice will ask for the code previously gotten for the radio . (ie; 123456*) It will then give the 3 or 4 digit unlock code. Note this is for Delco radios on Chevrolets. I'm guessing there is a different prompt for radios on other GM divisions.

How do I unlock a radio when it displays the word LOC on a 1997 GMC Jimmy?

It is written in your owners manual. you need a code which the original owner would have written down somewhere in the manual. If no code, no radio. Only the dealer can unlock and make new code.

After changing the battery in my 1997 Buick Riv, the radio is stuck in LOC mode. How to munlock??

You should have used a battery saver plugged into the cig lighter before changing it out. The Dealer will have to unlock it now. They have the code it takes to do it. Lots of times car company's did this to prevent stolen stereos from working again once power was cut off. Theifs could'nt get rid of them cause they did'nt work without the code to unlock it.

My daughters 97 saturn was worked on and now the stereo says LOC and wont play anything got any suggestions?

Hi, my name is Ben. When LOC is displayed on the radio it indicates that power has been shut off to the radio. Probably disconnected the battery during servicing the vehicle. Once this happens, there is a code which must be entered using the buttons on the radio to make the radio able to work again. If you don't know the code, you will need to take the vehicle to a dealership service department and have them unlock the radio. Sorry, I can't help you more, but hopefully you have the information you need now. If you can find the code, sometimes it's written in the owner's manual, I can give you the procedure for entering it into the radio.

1997 buick lasabre radio locked

You must take it to a dealership and they will unlock it for you. There is a specific dealer code that will unlock any radio and once they do it, you pick one that you will remember. This is part of the anti theft. Hope this helps.
