My battery died of old age. I replaced it and the resetting all went well except for the radio. I put the key code in instead of the radio code.... and kept doing it!
By the time I realised the error the radio wouldn't let me try to put it right anymore. No matter how long I held in the BND button it will not give me the CODE IN screen. I have four hyphens displayed and nothing else. I tried disconnecting the battery and doing it all over again but the hyphens are all I get. What do I need to do to get the radio working again please?

Richard,
Put the key in the ignition, roll down the driver window (to not get locked out), turn the ignition to "on" without starting the car, turn the power to the radio on, and let sit for over 1 hour.
Make sure the accessories are off so you do not drain the battery.
When you return, hold the bnd button for a few seconds, and the code screen will pop up.
Enter the code, and the radio should turn on.
Enjoy!
