hey, didnt want to be a post hi jacker, so i am creating my own post, how do i get the code to disarm the Theftlock on a GM head unit? My friend is letting me borrow his head unit because he got ane wone, and i am saving up for my own, anyway its out of a 95 GMC sierra, I finally found out that scoche makes a reverse wiring harness, so i can wire it into my car, and have it hook up like it was that way from the factory. but

Do i need to go to the dealership that originally sold the truck? can any dealership unlock it for me?

 

just bringing back to the top, anyone have any ideas?

 

im pretty sure any dealership can. Give them a call and see what they say and save a trip of going over there.

 

I bought my wife a jetta a couple of years back and when we replaced the battery the book was missing the page with the code in it. We called the dealership, they asked us the vin# the serial # of the deck and our names and I think maybe some little stuff to let them know it was us. Then they gave it to me over the phone.
Hope this helps,
Brian

 

Do people even steal these factory radios? Gm goes through a hell of a lot of trouble with all these code locks, but I wouldn't accept a GM radio to put in my car if it was given to me for free!

 

hey tomp, i know this is off subject, but where can i find your tune up guide? i tried searching but couldnt find it

 

nevermind

 

well, i just hooked it up, and it didnt say anything about theft lock, it powered on, and the stations were already preset, but thanks for the help!

 

They do......Stock CD Players can actually get some decent money.......especially since people with stock radios rarely have alarms......

 

lol, tom man, you never cease to amaze me with your comments.
You seem to bring out the most obvious statement in the most humourous of manner.

I dont think a stock GM radio is gonna get you any more than 20 bucks nowadays. A lot of the brainstorming that GM designers went through makes me stop for a minute and think .. WHY?

 

well they gotta have some excuse to pay them the big $$$ they do!

 

TomP, are GM radio/cd players that bad? Do you know who makes them? I`m looking for a replacement radio/cd for my `88 Iroc and was thinking about putting the Sony from my `74 El Camino in but I also see almost new cd players from GM cars and trucks on E-bay for cheap.
