Did you try the LAST 5 digits of your VIN (vehicle identification number)?

Press the station buttons if the code is 3 6 5, press 1 three times press 2 six times and so on when all the code is in press the next button this should bring on the radio.

    Thanks for your help leanburn. But im still having problems because im not even sure if I have the correct code. The land rover dealer I called gave me a 5 digit code and every website ive went to it says its a 4 gigit code. Also it does a beep sound every 5 times you hit a button. And sometimes i get the word "code" to blink on the radio but thats pretty much the only thing i can do to it. Im still pretty lost on the sequence on how to enter the code in the radio.

  • gerard kerton Aug 18, 2010

    In some radios you only get a certian amount of chances to enter the right code after that it does not accept the code.

    Sorry I could not be of any more help.

I changed the battery in my 1997 Discovery and the radio needs to be reset. The local dealer gave me a 7 digit code, but they don't know the procedure for entering it. Any ideas?

So if you were to pay a dealer for their time & have it
taken into the service bay, not a single tech could put
in a radio code
That is pure non sense

Sorry, I had to say something & I don't have your owners
manual or any other material to help you

Try asking another dealer, or see if you can have it
done with a scan tool at a local repair shop

My 1997 land rover radio just says code it wont turn on how do i get it to play music

look in your owners manual or if a radio manual came with it look there. there should be a four digit code there for the anti theft feature on that radio. The automakers put it there to keep people from stealing the stock radios from cars. It's mostly a pain in the patootie because most car thieves aren't looking for stock radios. Good luck.

No default code that I know of, I would call back your sales manager. If you had the car serviced at a Land Rover dealer check the service form as oftern the radio code will be listed on the top section.

Radio code

I had a new cd player fitted to my 97 discovery and that did. Raido codes are free, providing you can prove ownership. Just visit a main landrover dealer, they got mine in about 10 minites.
