All Volkswagen car radios are equipped with an anti-theft feature that displays"safe code." Like many automotive safety systems, this feature can accidentally be activated. Thankfully, it's easy to unlock a Volkswagen radio that is reading"safe code." The safe code safety feature is supposed to deter thieves from stealing radios out of Volkswagen models by locking the radios. When the feature is activated, a radio will turn on but it will only display"safe code." Until the appropriate code is entered, the user can not listen to a radio station, play a CD, connect an MP3 player or even turn on the volume. The radio is effectively rendered useless. The security feature is triggered if the radio ever loses power. In order to steal a radio from a car, a thief must disconnect the radio from the car's battery and the radio will get rid of power.

Even if the thief is quick and immediately connects the radio to a different power source, there'll be a moment when it's not connected to any power supply. Thus, an interruption in the power supply indicates a potential burglary. A burglary, however, is not the only way a radio may lose power. If a car's battery is damaged or replaced, there will be at least a short time when the radio does not have electricity. This break in power will activate the safe code safety feature because radio has no means of knowing whether there is a burglary in progress or a car's battery has been removed. If your Volkswagen radio reads"safe code," you won't be able to use it till you enter its safe code. The secure code is a four-digit number, which you want to know to unlock the radio. There are a couple of places where you might locate your Volkswagen radio's safe code. It is included with your Volkswagen's unique paperwork, in the radio guide. If you don't have this document, you may find the code in the trunk or on the spare tire. Frequently when a driver brings a Volkswagen into a dealership for this issue, the dealer will affix a tag with the code to the lid of the trunk or onto the spare tire.
If you can not find the code, you will need to have a dealer look it up. Any Volkswagen dealer can look up the code, by either looking up your automobile's VIN or pulling the radio out and checking its serial number. As soon as you have the code, it's easy to enter. Each of the first four preset buttons corresponds to one of the digits in the code. In other words, the first preset is used to enter the first digit, the next preset the second digit, and so on. Pressing a preset will increase the corresponding amount by one, with"9" going back to"0." If you have more than four presets, just the first four are used. You can use the seek buttons to go back and forth between the digits. If you see"2 Safe Code," then the wrong safe code has been entered twice. You will need to wait an hour before you can enter the code again. After the proper code is entered, your radio will be unlocked and fully functional. If your Volkswagen radio is displaying"safe code," and you don't know the code, then come to Fox Valley Volkswagen. The technicians at the dealership have helped many Volkswagen drivers who had this issue.
