From the Lost Radio Code FAQ...

"CDR-23 (or later):
These radios do not have a security code - that is, not that the user enters.
These radios are security tested on the MOST (fiber optic bus) system to see if they are the "programmed" radio. The radios are programmed and recognized by the car’s DME and can only be replaced by a shop with a PST2 or PIWIS. These radios will not request a code when battery power is disconnected."

Sorry .... you say it doesn't take a code, I'm confused. I've owned the car for 18 years and have entered the radio code several times over that period, I unfortunately lost the card recently that it's written on.

I've attached a picture of the radio requesting a code?

Probably me being a bit thick but if you could explain would be greatly appreciated?

The code can only be entered using a Porsche PIWIS tester.

Purchased a car with a CDR 220 radio (Becker). Radio shows code and the previous owners cannot remember the code.  Model #BE4462  Serial Number W5011714 .  Please research the correct code.

 

Thank you
