Title: CCR 600
Post by: blue_dream on 02 April 2010, 18:38:27

Hi guys
            Im wondering if someone can give me some advice,im having problems in reinstating the codes on the radio and cd player of my CCR 600.
  I've been repairing the car and have been disconnecting the battery several time, now im unable to put the codes back in for both units, i've double checked the manul to see if i doing it correct which i have, all i get is a message saying safe  :(
   Has anybody got any ideas, cheers

I have a flat battery, due to the car not being used for 3 weeks, do i remove it to charge or disconnect and charge whilst still in the car?
Sounds dim I know, but every time I try to disconnect, the alarm sounds!

The key is to start with Ign on, radio off.  Many think its ok to turn ign on (and thus radio) whilst holding AS, but that doesn't work.

You've got 15 secs between turning your ignition off & disconnecting the battery  :y
Please read the manual  ;)

Hi guys
           Thanks to The boy, have tryed your suggestion with no joy, can these radios (ccr 600) lock themselves out if repeated attemps of trying, have keep the AS button pressed in for up to 5 mintues waiting for the bleep and then tryed doing the cd button, no joy, have taken fuse out as well then reinstated, still no joy, any other surggestions guys  :( :( :(

Ah, if you've had more than 3 code entry attempts, then:

a) your code is obviously wrong, don't keep trying it ;)
b) you have a 'wait' period, where you have to leave ign on for between 10 and 600 mins (10hrs!) before reattempting.

On the missus's Astra I stuffed the code 3 times and had to leave the ignition and radio on for 2 hours before it let me in again - just long enough to lock it with the spare key and nip out for a few bevvies.

Oh, and I've heard if you hold the AS key down for 10 minutes straight that sometimes does it. Preferred to drink than sit there like a dutch lad trying to plug a dyke.

Hi The Boy
                 Thanks for coming back, :y  bloody hell, would be ok then to leave the radio ON whlist using the car ie stop start driving until this safe message disappears, i know the codes are correct have used before or is it a case of leaving ignition on for short periods of time, what would be the best way  :-?
     Cheers

Well I'll be ... it didn't like my spelling of d-y-k-e. Presumaby thought the dutch lad was plugging something more racy than a dam.

the ign has to be on in one long period - switch off restarts the wait timer
