BMW radio unlock codes
Many BMW
vehicles are equipped with
radios that require a special
anti-theft radio code. This code
is not required, unless the
radio is removed from the
vehicle, or the vehicles battery
is disconnected.
Always
have a copy of your radio code
in a safe place, not in the
vehicle!
If you
have your radio unlock code, but
do not know how to enter It into
the radio.
Visit
car radio
unlock code guides,
for assistance with entering
your radio unlock code.
BMW uses
the radio lock feature to
prevent unauthorized users of
your audio system and will
not allow your radio to operate
without the proper unlock code.
BMW began
using the antitheft feature
around 1990 and is still in use
in most BMW vehicles
today!
