- Use preset buttons 1-4 to enter each digit
- Press button 1 multiple times for the first digit

How to Get Mercedes Radio Code?
If your radio security code is missing, you have a few options.
Dealer Option (Slow, VIN Required, With Paperwork)
One way to get it is by contacting a dealer, car manufacturer, or authorized service center.
They typically ask for your VIN, proof of ownership and car documents, and sometimes even a registration certificate.
The process is usually slow.
Some charge a fee (which can be expensive), while others offer it for free - but it can take hours or days.
Fees vary, and turnaround times range from same-day to several days.
It works, but it's rarely the fastest solution.

There's a much faster way - use our instant Mercedes radio code generator.
All you need is your radio's serial number, which you can find on the unit, retrieved from the screen or located on the sticker.
There's no personal data required, and you'll get the code immediately after payment.
We support most Mercedes radios and models.
Find Radio Code handles everything automatically, and we offer a money-back guarantee if it doesn't work.

How to Find the Serial Number (S/N) on Your Mercedes
By Removing the Radio (Most Common Method)
For most vehicles, the serial number is printed on a label attached to the back of the unit.
To access it, you'll need to gently pull the radio from the dash using standard removal keys.
- The correct code is typically near a barcode
- The serial is usually a mix of letters and digits, 8-14 characters long
- Avoid confusing it with the part number - only serial can be used for code generation
Physical removal is often the most reliable way to access your S/N.
Alpine MF2910 (AL2910X...)
Bosch Truck (BP/CM...)
Becker Audio (BE...)
On the Radio Display (Without Unit Removal)
Some touchscreen-equipped radios allow you to access the S/N via a button combination.
- Try holding "INFO" + "MENU" while turning on the radio
- The serial number will flash briefly on screen
- The combo of buttons for every radio is different.
Not all models support this, but it's worth checking before removing the unit.
The Difference Between the Serial Number (S/N) and Part Number (P/N)
The Serial Number (S/N):
- This is the unit-specific code assigned to your specific radio.
- It's required to generate the unlock code.
- Usually found starting with a brand-specific prefix like "M," "V," or "CL".
The Part Number:
- This refers to the model type of the unit.
- It's used by manufacturers for inventory, but irrelevant for unlocking your stereo.
- Usually labeled "P/N" or "Part No.".
How to Enter the Security Code
Entering the code into your radio takes just a few steps.
Most radios display "CODE" or "ENTER CODE" on the screen when locked.
Use the radio preset buttons or numbered keys to select the numbers.
Some models auto-confirm on final digit - such as pressing "OK," "Enter," or "5" to confirm or holding "Seek", "Tune" or the preset key.
Be careful not to enter the wrong code multiple times.
After 3-10 wrong attempts, some radios trigger a lockout timer or require a long wait.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Anti-Theft Code and Why You Need It?
A radio, an anti-theft or a security code is a PIN-style security code used to unlock your factory car stereo.
Manufacturers use it to deter theft by requiring the code after power loss.
When Does Mercedes Radio Ask for a Code?
- You recently changed or disconnected the battery
- Radio was removed or swapped
- A blown fuse caused the radio to reset
- The car was jump-started or lost power
- Radio was reset to factory settings
- Service work affected radio power
- Someone entered incorrect codes too many times
- You bought a used car and the code wasn't provided
- Inactivity can cause the anti-theft lock to engage
Does Mercedes cars Require a Security PIN?
Yes, all Mercedes-Benz vehicles with factory-installed radios require a radio code after battery disconnection or radio replacement. This applies to all models including A-Class, B-Class, C-Class, E-Class, ML-Class, SL-Class, SLK-Class, Sprinter, Vito, AMG, and Citan Van.
The anti-theft feature is standard on all Mercedes radios manufactured by Alpine, Becker, and Blaupunkt. Your 4-digit or 5-digit code is permanently linked to your radio's unique serial number (AL, BE, or BP prefix). Most models require radio removal to access the serial number label.
Finding a Stored or Printed Radio Code
Start by inspecting the owner's manual. The code is occasionally found on a small card or written directly on a page.
You can also search the glovebox or trunk, where dealers or previous owners may have stuck a sticker with the code. Some also search for it behind trim pieces or inside the fuse box.
If you have the original manufacturer label, that's the most reliable place to find the code - it usually includes both the serial number and unlock key.
Can You Get Free Mercedes Radio Code?
There are a few options - but they aren't guaranteed.
- Look inside the glovebox or vehicle documents - some vehicles came with the code printed at delivery.
- Contact your dealership - some offer free code retrieval if you're the original owner and can provide VIN.
- Some online communities share generic code info, but you risk using incorrect or locked codes.
- If none of these work, our service is the fastest and most accurate option.
