[s-cars] Radio Code

[Max Hoepli]

I solved the problem.


I took out radio, pulled of the bottom 4 group of wires in a plug,
Above these wires 2 glass tube fuses 2 cm long, 4mm in diameter each 8
amperes plugged into the rear between the

Speaker wires: green wires in a plug in the rear upper left;
Speaker wires: blue and red wires of the same kind as the green wires in the
same kind of plug plugged into the rear upper right, beside the green wires.


When I plugged the wires back into the radio, the word "CODE" appeared.

The front right panel is broken of, I have these wires used to wrap cables
that come with new electronic equipment to pull the front panel tied around
a frame beside where radio rests in dash. The back of the radio is screwed
to a support bracket by way of 1 screw and nut.

I wonder what I did. I did not change any parts, the 2 glass fuses were OK.

Comments.
