On radio or car manual; there must be attached label which shows radio serial number. You must contact to opel & provide that radio serial number in order to get acivation code for your car radio. As far as i know; there is no way to work original radio without having activation code.
is the cigarette lighter working if so it may be the one on the radio its self. can blow the radio fuse and not the main fuse. radio fuse is less think it is 5amp as main fuse can be 15-20amp fuse.
Hi
I have a vauxhall astra 2002 1.6 sxi. Ive just put in a mirror switch as the last was broken when I purchased car. The switch has been tested and is working but the mirrors dont work? Cant find a fuse which is specifically for that. Can anybody help?
Unfortunately the code for a Vauxhall VDO/SIEMENS radio is only available from the Main Vauxhall Dealer or a Radio Decoding Service only.and will not be available for free (or cheap) from anywhere on the Internet
This is because access is required to the original factory database....and this is not commercially available.
I had this problem for the last 2 weeks, didn't think much of it, but recently the car radio just turned on and off by itself, it decided to do so whilst the car was switched off and it drained my battery. After doing some tests with the Amp meter and removing the fuses for the radio and infotainment system the amps going through the batter went from about 0.7 to 0.001 (far more accpetable) - so the radio was draining the battery and randomly turning itself on/changing stations and the internal display system had stopped working.
after putting the fuses back in and re-testing the radio worked fine (almost like it had a full reset - no random turning on and off OR changing of radio stations)
the fuse box for my astra was next to the battery under the bonnet (see your car manual - I had lost mine so googled for it)
but it seems yanking the fuses for the radio (FUSE number 35 and 36) seemed to fix it (been a few days and no flat battery) -
It maybe an intermitent fault, in which case i'll have it looked into, but as garages charge an arm and a leg i'd give this solution a go and if your battery is good all you need to do is remove the fuses and put them back after say a minute or so)
