Hi,

Can anyone assist please? Either a contact in LR dealer or some other method.

Have a good CD Radio from a scrap car, have the registration number but need the radio code.

Local dealer to me used to give them out but they want paperwork and, worse, payment now !!

Thanks for any leads....

There must be an algorithm based on serial number. Who wants to try to derive it!?!?!?

Click to expand...

I've always wondered how these people did it. I just assumed they somehow got a bootleg copy of the database from somewhere, an ex/current employee or summat.

It could be as straightforward as solving a simultaneous equation with N unknowns. How many serial numbers and codes do you have @andyfreelandy? I am waiting to sign off to get my house/workshop/computing facilities back but I would give your data a spin to see if there is an algorithm I can find/develop.

Something for the autumn weather maybe as the nights start to draw in.

Hi, Thanks. I only had one and got that solved thanks.

If we could work out the pattern it would help others.

Assume you'd need a list of serial numbers and lock codes that match ?? I'm sure the forum could provide.
