Next, press the Minute button until the last two numbers of the code are displayed. Once all four digits appear, press the AM/FM button to unlock your stereo.

To remove "INOP" from your display and unlock your radio, you must leave the key in the On position for one hour. Once you've retrieved your radio unlock code, write it down for future use. Your radio code will not change and having it handy will save from going from the radio code retrieval process again.

GM DELCO THEFTLOCK RADIO UNLOCK CODE:
1. Press and hold presets 2 and 3 for about 5 to 10 seconds until you
get 3 digits on your display. This is the first 3 of 6 digits you will
need, so write 'em down.
2. After doing step one and writing down the code, immediately press
the
AM/FM button to get the last 3 of the 6 numbers you'll need, and write
'em down. (if you wait too long between steps 1 and 2 and the LOC code
displays again, just start over).
3. Call this number, it's a prerecorded message, so don't worry about
having to talk to anyone...1-800-537-5140. The voice will ask if
you're
calling for Chevy, Pontiac, Cadillac, etc... When you here him tell
you
to press "2" for Pontiac, press 206010 and hit the # key. He'll ask
you
for the 6 digit code that you've written down. Enter that and press
the
* key. He will then give you a code, and the option to get additional
4
digit codes, but one should be sufficient.
4. Follow the normal procedure in your owners manual for unlocking the
radio with your new code...press the hour set button on your radio
until
you get the first two numbers of the code, then press the minute set
button until you've entered the last two numbers. Immediately press
the
AM/FM button once the correct code is entered and the code SEC or
"secured" will be displayed on the display screen. Now, just turn the
radio on, and your ready to roll.
There is an additional step you can take to remove all codes from the
radio and start from scratch by entering your own personalized 4 digit
code so that it won't get you in a pickle again! Just repeat step 4
and
you should get a display screen that reads ---. This means the code is
out, and you can now program your own code. Of course, once you
receive
the 4 digit code from the GM recorded message, just keep it in a safe
place, because you can use that same code again and again should you
have any more problems with it in the future. Good luck, and yes, it
does work.
__________________

You can obtain the code from daewoousa. Remove radio and get serial number from radio (white strip with black numbers on radio) Email this to daewoousa and they will email back your 4 digit code. To input code, disconnect the NEGATIVE battery cable, pause, then reconnect. Your radio face will now flash "code" Input the 4 digit code given to you. Radio will play after about 15 seconds.

first do you have 6 button presets and is your code also 6 digits.then turn radio on and put in the 6 digit code.but if your radio has 4 buttons then we need a diff way to install.for example code may be 1246. you turn radio on and go to first button preset and hit it once for 1.now go to second preset and hit the preset two times for 2 of the code and go to the next one which is 4.go to preset three and tap the preset 4 times and finish with 6 of code and radio will make sound and select your radio stations.

Your radio should say CODE when you tune it on. Type the 4 digit code in using your Radio Preset buttons 1 thru 6. If you type in the wrong code more the 3 times the radio will lock you out for a lengthy amount of time...

Hope that helps
