The most common problem when entering VolksWagen stereo pin code is the "SAFE" error displayed on the screen. In this case, press "Scan" and "Mode" for about 5 to 10 seconds. Your radio will now allow you to enter a code and display "1000".
Entering the pin code is easy for example for code 3462 :
- Press button " 1 " three times to display a " 3 " in the first column,
- Press button " 2 " four times to display a " 4 " in the second column,
- Press button " 3 " six times to display a " 6 " in the third column,
- Press button " 4 " twice to display a " 2 " in the fourth column.
By checking on the screen that the code "3462" is correctly displayed, press and hold "Scan" & "Mode" to enter the code into the system and your radio will operate again.
All codes are unique and never change, so if this happens in the future, enter the same code, the radio will unlock again and again.
