Ford Sony Radio Codes

Switch the radio on so it asks for the KEYCODE. Hold buttons 1 and 6 together. Lines scroll across the screen for about 30 seconds and the serial comes last, so have your phone ready to film the screen.

It shows as SN SOCD and a string of letters and digits, for example SN SOCD1X8V006383. Your serial is the V and the 6 digits at the end: V006383. You can also enter the whole line and we will read the serial from it.

The same line is printed on the label on the radio casing. Some early Sony radios (2004 to 2007) have an M serial on the label instead.

Fitted to the Focus, C-Max, Mondeo, S-Max, Galaxy and Kuga from 2005 to 2012, with or without DAB and the 6 CD changer.

The green Sony in the Mondeo from 2003 to 2007 does not show its serial on the screen, so the radio has to come out. Push the radio removal tools into the four holes in the corners and slide it out.

The serial is on the Sony label on the casing, next to SERIAL NO.: V or M and 6 digits, for example V002803. It is not the number on the white sticker that starts with A.
