Right, the '6' has been sitting in the cold for a week and it appears the battery lost connection or something.

(I say lost connection because it doesn't seem the battery was flat, it took a few attempts to start, and my initial thought was that it was mega flat as the car didn't even turn over ... maybe some belt or something was frozen, I dunno, but that's by the by ...)

So my radio now wants it's code, which of course I dont have.

After a search it seems the Phase 3 radios can't be simply deciphered and its going to cost me, but I just wanted to be sure as it's not clear whether this refers to all phase 3 radios or just the CD head units.

Mine is an early casette unit with a CD changer in the boot (PU2294A ??), so ...

1) Can I retrieve the code myself, if so how do I get the damn thing out, (I've searched this aswell) but I can't see any little holes at the bottom of the face to shove anything in, let alone a small flat screwdriver?

2) If I'm going to have to pay someone, who?
Is it a Halfords job or Peugeot dealer only, or can any decent garage do this?

Cheers,
Dave

The code is definately on that piece of paper Dave, I can see it now, the 20 quid I handed over for it (after unsuccessfully trying to decipher it myself using the above code workerouter ) burning it firmly into my memory.....
