Question
I just recently bought a used Saturn 1998 SC1 The radio works great HOWEVER.. When I put a cd in to the player it takes it for about 10 sec spits it out and says "ERR" now it has a thft deterant on it and I dont know the activation code or if it needs one I mean the radio isnt saying LOC But since everything in this car was updated  cleaned whatnot I know power to the BAT was disconnected somewhere along the line could this have anything to do with it....HELP

Answer
Try this,
Press & hold the 2 & 3 buttons @ the same time for about 10 seconds; a 2 or 3 digit code will appear, write this # down,press & hold the am/fm button for about 10 seconds: another code will appear, write this # down, then call 1-407-933-1065 and they  will give you a 3 or 4 digit override code. Write this code # down so you have it if you ever need it again. Enter this # into your radio following the instructions in your owners manual. If you get an override code that starts with 0, you drop the 0 when entering the code into your radio.
If you don't have an owners manual, try this, press & hold the hour button until the first 2 digits of your code come up, then press & hold the minute button until the last 2 digits show. Then press the am/fm button. This should reset your stereo dealer wants  $75.00 to $100.00 for this
the number i give you they only charge $25.00
good luck
