Radio frozen on "OFF"

I don't know the radio brand. But generally, some radios are blocked for some time after entering a wrong code. Entering next wrong codes multiplies blocking time. Try to have switched on the blocked radio for longer time, it may offer entering another code. It is a good idea to find out the way how to enter the code before its entering. Sometimes it is quite tricky.

The process is very simple, just follow these steps and you'll be on your way to listening to your radio again. First of all don't think you need to unscrew anything. The wood panel surrounding your stereo snaps out by pulling on it or using a flat screw driver at the corners. Once you have taken the panel out, you can see that the radio is held in by 2 hooks. Push up and pull forward slightly. You don't have to pull out the entire radio because you can see the serial number on the top surface very easily. Write down the number next to where it reads s/n. Once you have the serial number, call the local dealership and give them your serial number. They will in turn give you a four digit code number that you will enter on your radio. One thing to note is that if you have entered the wrong code number 3 times, your radio would lock up and it would read "OFF". To unlock it, simply park your vehicle in a safe place and leave the radio on for about 1 hour (no engine running just click the ignition switch to operate the radio). After one hour, the radio resets and will ask you again to enter the code. start entering one number at a time using the first 4 buttons. Example, if your code is 4538, you would push button 1 four times to get to the number 4, you would push button 2 five times to get to the number five and so on.. After you have entered the correct code, push the CD button and there you have it.

Hope that helps. But I don't think there is a code for the dodge neon. I believe the radio is broken. You can try replacing the fuse in the back if there is one or completely unplugging the radio to reset it, not the battery.

This is a problem with the Theft-Loc system. I believe you will have to take it to the dealer to have the radio unlocked. I found this procedure on the web, but I don't know if it will work. Good luck.

1. Turn the ignition ON (The radio should display "LOC")

2. Hold down the Radio Presets 2 and 3 buttons for six seconds

3. The radio display changes from LOC to a three-digit number. Write this number down. You now have fifteen seconds to complete the next step.

4. Press the AM/FM button

if you dont have the code, the radio has to be removed and a gm dealer can get the code.

2. Press and hold presets buttons 2 & 3 or 1 & 4 for approximately 10 seconds.
The radio display changes from "LOC" to a three-digit number. Write this number down. If you have a Saturn or GEO, see note below and skip to step 5.
Don’t take long, fifteen seconds max before the next step
3. Press the AM/FM button. The radio display changes to another three-digit number. Write this number to the right of the first one.
