Mopar radio security code.

[Ian-PT-GT]

I want to disconnect the battery in my GT to reset the computer and remove some settings that where learned from the time the dealer gave it to me with crapy fuel, They removed and threw out the code sticker in the front of the radio so now if I disconnect the battery, the radio will lock up until I enter a code. My radio is the one that has CD and Cassette in the same unit.

Do I need a code for it?
Is there a way to see the code on the radio before I disconnect the battery?

The dealer I bought the car don't have a service center. I have to take it to another dealer for service and because I didn’t buy it from them I am always at the end of the waiting list.

Ian,

I have a 2001. There's no name on my radio/CD/cassette player to tell you what kind I have but it has the 3-band graphic equalizer built into the face. I've taken the negative battery cable off twice for different reasons and the only thing that happens is that I loose the pre-set radio stations and the PT runs a litle ruff for awhile until the computer re-leans all the settings and the way I drive.
I've nevre heard of the PT radio needing a code, but that doesn't mean they didn't make one like that. Does your owners amnual say anything about a code?

Hi Guys, About these Radio Codes,I want to connect up a CD Stacker and Sub-woofer but my problem is I don't have the glovebox manual except for a downloaded one from this Forum. I bought a 2006 PT Cruiser LTD 5 speed ,RH drive in Australia and it was 6 months old at the time so I don't have alot of the original paperwork. I've read that older PT's don't have Radio codes, mine has a anti-theft LED that blinks all the time so I would have assumed it would need the code after disconnecting the battery, I can do my stereo upgrade without disconnecting the battery but sooner or later I'll have to put a new battery in ,I doubt if my local dealer will help as I didn't buy off him as he wouldn't let me have a test drive of a PT.
