Radio Codes for BA Astina

Hi all

I just replaced my battery and got the CODE message flashing on my stock BA Astina head unit.

After three failed attempts, I'm now locked out.

I've since read that the code is the last four digits of the VIN. Trouble is I can't input them any more.

Any suggestions?

I can't be the first to have done this!

Cheers
Stuart

take it in to your local dealer and ask really nicely if they can get it out of error for you

Reviving an old thread here but I now have the same problem.

I haven't actually got to the error state yet, still asking for the code.
Trouble is the last 4 digits of the VIN has a 0 in it. There is no 0 button on the unit.

Do you care to share what you have found?
