The model number doesn't help because every radio has an individual code. (If it didn't there wouldn't be much point in having a code anyway). Assuming that it's the original radio that was fitted when the car was manufactured, any Ford dealer can find the code for you. When I worked for one, a few years ago, the charge was £15.

Alternatively you can get the code online but to do so you'll need the serial number of the radio, which means being able to remove it from its mounting. There are several firms offering the service. This one seems to be well-reviewed:

Take it to a ford dealer they will tell you.

Hi,

The model number won't help you unlock your radio, you will need the serial number of it in order to generate a radio code. Visit the below website which will explain to you how to can get your radios serial number and how to generate a radio code from it.
