Webby, if your replacement AirCon control unit is new (as in never fitted to a car) it will be in 'delivery' mode & you will need to have it activated by Tech 2. I have one in my shed that I bought to replace the worn buttons on mine & thought I could just replace the old with the new Roll Eyes

as for needing the radio code, I believe you can turn off the coding but the owners Audio Manual states the sequence of events is on page 17 (CDC6000) only it aint! Sad

Maybe someone who has done this in the past can help? Wink
