You most likely got boguss information from the dealer. The codes on factory radios are accessable only with the vehicle VIN# or the serial # (serial # prefered) off of the radio. If they did not ask for either of these they were just trying to get you off of the phone. I would drive to the dealer, ask for the service manager and explain what happened. They should be able to get you the right code...that's their job. You may have to pull the radio to get the serial # or pay them to do it if you can't get it out yourself.How many channels would 4 speakers and 1 subwoofer take?
