FORD DECODE BY SERIAL NUMBER
HELP PAGE
ford car stereo decode
HOW TO GET SERIAL NUMBER  


METHOD 1: The serial number is located on the Side or top of the stereo, Most serial numbers are prefixed with a letter then usually six numbers. Newer Ford stereos are prefixed with the letter 'V'.
We can supply codes for serial numbers prefixed by the following letters.
Vxxxxxx    
Mxxxxxx     Axxxxxx      Cxxxxxx      Lxxxxxx



METHOD 2The serial number can also be shown on the radio display, without even removing the radio, it doesn't work on every ford unit, but try this method first, before removing the unit.

Switch radio on
Hold down button 6 then press button 2
or, hold button 2 and 6 together
or, hold button 1 and 6 together

Hopefully you should see a series of text and numbers on the display, you are looking for a six digit number that begins with M or V, this only shows for a second, so it may be helpfull to take a video of it with your phone.

If method 2 doesn't work, you will have to use method 1 and remove the radio.
