npoe tried all that, comes up cd code but wont allow me to put code in  

[markey mark]

sounds like its had wrong code in it then ! might have to leave it switched on for a good while to see if code input comes up !
does it just come up cd safe or do you get 10----  :-/

[vauxhallomega]

just comes up cd-safe then when i press the buttons it comes up cd code but wont allow any input

[markey mark]

get it to the cd safe part and leave it with ign on or running and wait bud to see if code input comes up ! should be a number 1/10 and 4 dashs ---- ! if nothing happens then changer has had code entered more than 10 times nad will need decoding by dnd

thanks , think i may need a  new unit

The word SAFE without a number to the left of it means that you are attempting to enter a code in the wrong sequence or your ignition is not on. If it is showing a number less than 10 and you cannot enter anything, leave both ignition and radio powered up for up to two hours or until another attempt is allowed as you have to allow the penalty time to reset after entering an incorrect code.

I have a same/similar problem on a 98 Elite 2.5.

I have left the ignition on yet never get the prompt to enter in the CD code.  Is my cd player screwed?

[Dave DND]

The prompt will only come up after the penalty time has elapsed (max 2 hours) and the correct button sequence is pressed to get to the code entry screen

The prompt will only come up after the penalty time has elapsed (max 2 hours) and the correct button sequence is pressed to get to the code entry screen

Vx documentation says up to 640m, which is nearly 11hrs...

[kmason8282]

Gents, thanks for the replies.

Re the 640 mins is that 640min of the radio turned on all the time or 640 mins radio on/off etc.

last but not least is this a common issue with the cd players?

Never seen that figure quoted before on a Vauxhall unit ?

Still, quite possible I suppose on such a high end unit.

But how are you supposed to leave unit and ignition powered up for 11 hours? I thought that one timed out and powered down long before that?

dave my cd player is now reading  o cd safe  any help thanks

[Dave DND]

0-CD SAFE means that all of the ten attempts have been used up and the changer will have to be sent somewhere to be reset.

Which changer do you have? CDC2 Blaupunkt ?
