Need to input code for radio. Guessing it`s a CCR2006. Radio off. Ign. on. Turn radio on whilst holding AS button, wait for the beep, release AS, input code, press AS until beeps again

You need to get that battery up to full charge, leaving a lead acid battery discharged in very low temperatures reduces it's life dramatically.
