Well, you didn't read this thread did you...

WAIT has been explained here several times. You need to drive the car to clear the WAIT message.

eh...u are a porsche god my friend and i thank you yet again...but i didn't have time to read 26 pages of cdr-220 serial numbers and codes since being on the net at work is punishable by termination. ;) so i took your advice and the wait did clear and is ready for a code again. hate buggin ya about this, but if those 2 codes you gave me didn't work, is there still a chance to save myself the 2.5 hour trip to the dealership?

I have a CDR-21

My vin is WPOAA2991XS623320

Any idea what my code is?

THANKS!

Try 2742

or

2740

Hi Loren,

Sorry but the codes did not work. I also tried 2740, 2741, 2742, 2743, 2744, 2739, and 2738. Those did not work either.

In addition my radio is actually CDR-210.There is also a number when i take the radio face out. That number is 228012516272189905.

Is there any other information you need? Are there any numbers you would suggest?

Thanks a lot again in advanced!

EDIT--- My car is also a 1999 Porsche C2. The manufactured date was in July 1998. It is a US car if that helps as well.

Hello I just joined and just wanted to post to say thanks to this great forum and the mods and admins here. A cool forum I look forward to exploring and learning from.

:renntech:

I was going to ask for a radio code and was waiting for it to clear because I tried some that were posted and got locked out with the "wait" message.

Then I read a post that said that sometimes the mechanics write the code on the sticker under the front truck lid. So I opened my front trunk lid and lo and behold there were the 4 digits I needed written in pen on the sticker! They worked like a charm.

In short I thought I would write this as a first place to look for your code if you've bought a used Porsche as I had. Otherwise it seems like Loren's codes do the trick for most people.

I do still have a question for future reference though.

I still want to look up the radio serial number. Now that I've already unlocked it can I still look it up?

I tried the instructions for displaying it, but all that did was change the radio stations (since it's unlocked).

I have the CR-210 Model with the CD changer.

Thanks,
