citroen zx radio code?

[GRAHAM1975]

When I recently replaced the battery on my mum's citroen zx, it requested a code for the stereo. Nobody had a clue of this and was told that a citroen dealer would be able to get it but for a fee!!!! Please if anyone knows a code, I would be very grateful!

Hey, I believe this is something that is unique to each car. I flatted my Mum's Corsa battery a few times by leaving the lights on (dur!) and managed to get the local Vauxhall boys to give me the code for free. (That said, it was summer and I did wear miniskirts when I went to the garage! LOL). The most they'll charge you for it is �20 (there's a receipt in my own car from a previous owner paying this amount for the code). But the people that replaced the battery should give you the code as they know that removing the batter will do this. So you should contact them and get them to tell you for free!! Obviously if you replace the battery youself you wouldn't have been to know.

Either way, it's a code unique to your car (as far as I know) so you'll have to go down the garage and ask for help! Should only take them 5 minutes to find it for you! :-)

Good luck!

Ok - according to the thread below, some makes and models have the same numbers. That said, we own two corsas and they have different numbers. So I'm note sure what to believe now! Sorry that this hasn't perhaps been as helpful as you'd have hoped!

I work for Merc and have never charged a customer for a radio code. Would advise that you had proof of ownership, that's the only thing I'd say.

Always worth a try.

Have you checked the owner's manual which comes with the car? I found mine in there.
