Thanks in advance!

Try 0261

or

0259

Niether worked! any thoughts?

Please... it is all covered here before (if folks would just take the time to read).

You can try two digits up or down of the first number I gave you - that has worked for some.

If nothing works then you either need to contact your dealer or Becker. Last time I checked Becker charges $30 to look up up your code.

Loren!~

I may finally be figuring out how to post on here!~ Sorry for the blond roots.. I bought our car a year ago, and just now realized that the battery replacement entails inputting the radio code, of which I never Got from the out of state dealer!~ [& it wasn't even a Porsche dealer either!]

anyway, I have READ the posts [!~~! :):) ], and Have gotten the S#, etc from the TP portion of the Becker radio I have, and Will try up or down 2 #'s from the code you [hopefully, Please Please!~!~] are able to find on my behalf?... I will be eternally grateful for any help/info you can provide... I believe the info You need from me is as follows:

Becker radio

CDR 220

4362

S# 15001795

24/99

2002 Boxster S

Thank you in advance for your time and efforts, my gosh, there are a LOT of people you must have been able to help on here!~

Happy Motoring,

Todd

Try 6411

or

6409

Loren!~

TY for getting back to me so quickly... unfortunately neither the 6409 or 6411 worked?? Do I try 6407 or 6413? or?

Todd

Yes you can try that - it has worked for a few folks. Just keep trying a two digit difference each time.

If all else fails you will need to contact a dealer or Becker.

DARN, I "Have" to drive for another hour!~~! btw, the English web site mentioned for $18 for an instant code requires Internet Explorer as a browzer [ie, not this Apple!~]

Thanks again for all your help!~~!

Todd

I drove for the hour, tried 6413 [2 up from the original suggestion of 6411, no avail, but then 6412 DID work!~ YEAH... our weekend trip had music, THANKS TO THE EFFORTS of Loren and this site.

Plz read all the info on here, it took me about 10m and I found out quite a bit.. the TP info [holding the TP button for 10s to get your model and serial #'s, the idea that the code Loren gives you first is a best estimate, the 2nd # is also a stab, and most likely if those don't work, something Very Close will... be patient, wait the time necessary that your manual says [60s at first attempts, then progresses up to an HOUR ...60 minutes... of the car AND radio being ON... and if that fails, Becker will process your request after some basic info & $30, or worst case, a trip to your dealer... Good Luck, I hope everyone has the good fortune and incessantly patient help of this fine site and it's tech rep, LOREN... THANK YOU, TYTYTY... & Happy Motoring, Todd

Hi! I just purchased a '01 Boxster S and had to replace the battery; the former owner did not have the radio code to furnish me. Can anyone help?

Radio Type 4362, serial number Y5023129.

Thanks in advance.

Mike Call

Try 0462

or

0460

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm puzzled, however, at how to enter the code. Currently the screen is showing "Wait". What's my next step?

Loren,

You're awesome! 1298 did it.

Now only if you can also tell me what's the next winning lottery number...

Hi there,

Ever so grateful I found your site!

I just purchased a 2000 996 and of course the battery was dead and little did I know that you need a code to get the stereo to operate.

The info came up as follows:

Serial number: X5019280

Type 4362

47/98

Please - any help would be great!

Thanks.
