It appears to be that the radio clock display has malfunctioned, and is due for a replacement radio, which could be an aftermarket or oem radio, maybe found at a junk yard.
Tools required for oem replacement radio, torx keys set.
Before working on the radio or other electronics, disconnect the battery cables with 8mm wrench.
Replacing the oem radio is much easier, if you obtain oem radio, compared to aftermarket radio, due to being direct fit.
The radio is same for 1995 to 1999 Pontiac Sunfire and the Chevy Cavalier, regardless of sub models, such as SE,GT, VL,VLX,Z24. etc.
Parts needed for the the aftermarket radio install :Stereo assembly, stereo wiring harness adapter, radio antenna adapter, and dash install kit.wiring diagram for the wire colors / functions, along with tools, such as torx key set, screwdrivers,wire crimper, wire stripper, double ended wiring connectors, hair dryer.
The oem stereo removal video is for the 2000 to 2005 Sunfire / Cavalier, but are the same or very similar procedures.
The stereo
has "TheftLock". If the power is disconnected from the stereo, it will
not turn back on without first inputting the four digit security code.
This renders the stereo useless if someone steals it from your car. If
you've never set a code, the factory default code will be listed in the
owner's manual. If you do not have one, call your local dealer for the
default code.
www.DelcoLockCode.com will get you your unlock code for you. It's only $5 so it's better than going to the dealership.
Check in your service / owners manual to see if the code is recorded, if it is then follow the procedure for entering the code from the manual. If you dont have the code then you need to go to the dealer to check and get the code for you. Codes will not be given out over the phone , because it may be a stolen stereo, so take your ID and registration document with you.
Hope that helps
HAVE YOU OWNED THE CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW? THE POWER HAS BEEN INTERRUPTED FROM THE STEREO. IT WILL TAKE A LOCK CODE TO UNLOCK IT. REFER TO YOUR OWNERS MANUL OR TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP.
Try 0000 first and if that does not work, go to www.radio-code.com they should be able to get your radio working again. Good luck and let me if this helped.
I think you may have read it incorrectly...you do not disarm it, you need to know the code, so when you are finished, you can turn it back on. If you don't have the code the dealer can give it to you.

I dont know if holden barina uses the same stereo as a US GM vehicle, but if it is a delco stereo (same as US models) then any gm dealer can retrieve the scrambled code and call their automated system to get the unscrambled unlock code. Just make sure if they do this for you to have them disable the theftlock system. With theftlock disabled a dead battery will not cause you any further problem. Hope this helps.
