hello everybody. i bought a used 2001 galant a couple years back never got the manual. the seller has since moved and i have no way to contact him. I changed my battery for a new one and now the radio won't keeps saying code error , enter code, then just says off. how do i get to use the radio now? does anyone know how to reset code. i have no music for almost a week.

you must go to the dealer. You will need to retrieve the serial # off the top of the radio itself and then bring that to them so they can get the code for you. They may charge you for it though.

 

if it says "off", someone has entered an incorrect code 3 times. You must now leave the key on (engine doesnt have to be on, but it can be) for 1 full hour with the radio turned on (with the word "off" illustrated).
it will then reset itself and read "code" once again.

as otherwise stated, you will need your radios serial number to get the code from your local dealership.

 

How do I get to the top of the radio? I never had to remove radio before? can the dealer take it out?

 

you will just have to take the dash off to get it out. Once the dash is off there will be screws to get it off. Id just do it yourself at all possible cuz the dealer will most likely charge you for something that isnt all that difficult
