Question
Sorry to bother you, I have a '95 ford escort, a fuse went so that's replaced but the radio code needs entering and i have lost the audio manual, i have the code, but do not know how to enter it.  Can you help please? Thank you

Answer
Hi Shelley,
Small problem, you didn't say what radio is fitted.
Ford don't make radios so I hope it's a Philips as usual and here is the 'normal' procedure,,
Good luck, Peter

Switch on the radio and press (P1) the display will show “CODE”
Press (P1) followed by rotating the tuning button to the first digit
Press (P1) repeat for second, third, forth code.
Press (P1) to save code
