If you pull your stereo out & get the serial No off the back you can buy the code off EBAY for 2 quid emailed to you. I was skeptical, but it works.

These codes are available free off the internet, using a calculating tool.
As mentioned, pull it out, get the serial and model code, and I'll give you the code if you can't find it for free.

I hate to hear of people charging for things you can get for free.

The last few cars I've had the codes been on a sticker stuck to the back of the unit so it's worth pulling it and checking it. My mrs Mondeo had the code on a sticker under the front ashtray. It costs a tenner from our local Ford dealer.

Hi. Please can you help me. I'm looking for the radio code for ford mondeo radio serial number M006197. I have already forked out over £700 for a new salve cylinder, dmf and stater motor then a week later a cam sensor and I really don't want to pay any more on the car (plus I'm now skint lol). I would be really really grateful if you could help me. Thanks so much xx
