Question
1996 Chevy Monte Carlo

I just had some work done, and they had to disconnect power, so my CD player is locked.

Of course I don't have the code.

The dealer wants fifty bucks to reset it.  Is there anything I can do on my own?  Or a cheaper service provider?

Thanks,

Jessica

Cleveland, OH

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
407-933-1065
ask for andy give him the numbers and $15.00 and he will give you the code


Your factory radio unlock code is ----. To enter it turn on your key, (Radio says loc) press the hour button (it should come up with 000)  press the hour button until you get the first 2 digits, then press the min button until you get the second 2 digits. Press AM/FM. Radio should now say SEC. Turn the radio on.
If when you first push the hour button & you don't get 000 but instead get INOP, you must leave your radio on for 1 hour to reset it. This is because it has gone in to the next level of lock up.  print this out and don't play with the radio to much until you have all the info
good luck
