When the battery terminals are removed, the power on bus 30 is completely lost. The standard radio is permanently connected to it for storing memory data (settings, settings, channels), including identification ones.

If such a disconnection of the battery terminals is short-term, it is possible that the power supply to the memory chip will be supported for some time by a large-capacity electrolytic capacitor installed in the radio.

In some cars (for example, Mercedes), an additional small-capacity auxiliary battery is installed in the on-board power supply system for this case. In such cars, it is largely intended for uninterrupted power supply to the on-board computer. Some car enthusiasts install an additional battery to avoid problems with the immobilizer and radio.

The developers provide such a procedure to increase security against the car being dismantled by hooligans and thieves. Typically, such a security measure has low effectiveness, since PIN code recovery or calculation can be done inexpensively in specialized workshops. In Renault Duster cars, this procedure can be performed independently.

Typically this problem occurs when the car is parked in the winter. It is advisable in winter to periodically (once a week) start the car, warm it up and charge the battery with the engine running for at least half an hour. This measure is effective not only for eliminating problems with the radio, but also for extending the life of the battery and lubrication of engine components. When warming up, it is a good idea to drive the car a couple of meters forward and backward to prevent the brake pads from sticking.

Radio device

Usually, in the basic configuration, the radio has very limited functions, being a regular audio receiver, or is absent altogether, and the buyer has access to audio preparation - wires laid in the cabin and installed speakers, to which you can connect any alternative radio. This is done in order to create the most profitable car package. As a result, each car enthusiast can choose the most optimal option for himself.

The audio preparation of each car is done in such a way that you can independently install another device you like with improved technical functionality.

The radio for Renault Duster can be made in any country. Manufacturers often order such components from other companies, only agreeing on the design and the necessary technical functionality. Therefore, equipment marked “Made in China” does not mean poor quality. By installing such components in their cars, manufacturers take responsibility by providing a quality guarantee. This is relevant not only if you have a standard Renault Duster radio, but also for alternative devices.

Unlock methods

h22,0,0,0,0—> p, blockquote15,0,0,0,0—>

The most common methods for unlocking car radios are:

p, blockquote16,0,0,0,0—>

  • code calculation using special equipment;
  • dismantling the memory chip, reading the code on the programmer;
  • definition (code generation) using special software;
  • obtaining a PIN code from the dealer.

To unlock the radio using the first two methods, special skills and equipment are required. To obtain information from a dealer, it is necessary to create an official request at a dealer or specialized service station. Receiving an answer will take at least two to three weeks if the car is operated far from large cities.

p, blockquote17,0,0,0,0—>

The third method for the standard Renault Duster radio can be implemented independently without special skills. Let's take a closer look at this method of unlocking the radio.

Unlocking the car radio using the example of a Ford Focus 2 car

Ford Focus 2 is one of the most common cars in Russia. That is why we will look at unlocking the radio using the example of the music system of this car.

When you see an inscription on the display that requires you to enter a code, try to find it in the instructions. If your radio is standard (came with the car), a sticker with the required alphanumeric combination may be on the glove compartment. With its help you can easily unlock the radio.

Attention! Sometimes dealers themselves write the code on the first or last page of the service book.

If you find the code, unlocking the radio will not be difficult, however, the exact opposite situation is also possible. The instructions may get lost among many similar manuals, and no one will write the much-needed numbers in the service book. There's no need to talk about the glove compartment.

Fortunately, there is a universal algorithm that will help you unlock your radio in a few minutes. To do this you need to perform the following set of actions:

  • Press buttons 1 and 6.
  • The display will show a variety of information.
  • Wait for the data to pass through.
  • There will be a code at the end of the line.

There is another option. You can dismantle the radio and unlock it using a code, which is often indicated on the sticker of the device. There are only a few cases where these measures will be useless.

In the first option, you simply exceeded the limit of attempts to enter the code, and the device was permanently blocked. In this case, you will not be able to unlock it using the correct code.

Some Ford Focus 2 cars had special radios installed; to unlock them, you need special software. To receive the code, you need to enter the device serial number into the program interface, and the unlocking will take place.

How to dismantle the radio

To unlock the radio of a Ford Focus 2 car, you need to dismantle it. But this must be done extremely carefully so as not to damage the device or damage the wiring.

To dismantle and subsequently unlock the radio, you will need special keys. Usually they come included with the device. If necessary, they can be purchased at a car store for a very reasonable price. If you don't want to spend money, there is an easier way to unlock the radio - just take a utility knife.

Attention! When using a knife, be careful not to press too hard on the handle, as there is a risk of seriously damaging the panel.

It’s better not to risk it and make a key to remove the radio from a simple plastic card. True, this will take a little longer, but such a precaution will allow you to unlock the device in the future without any problems. The key creation process consists of the following steps:

  1. Take a card and use a pen to draw three stripes evenly spaced from each other.
  2. Take a knife and cut the card along the marked lines.
  3. Grind down one corner of each plate.

After you create the keys that will help unlock the radio, you will need to insert them into the symmetrical holes located along the edges of the device. Slowly swing the keys, trying to remove the clamps and temporarily dismantle the car radio.

Important! This dismantling scheme only works on the SONY 6000 radio.

Other types of radio tape recorders are even easier to dismantle. More precisely, this is the same SONY 6000 model, but of a different modification. The main difference is the shape. The stationary version is made in the shape of a square, the other two are an oval and a restyled version.

These modifications are fixed by means of a casing and bolts. The dismantling process consists of the following stages:

  1. Use a ruler to pry up the casing and remove it. Underneath you will find 4 bolts. They have characteristic hexagonal caps.
  2. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the bolts.
  3. The device is removed.

The code is located in the standard place. With it you can easily unlock the radio

In very rare cases, the code on the device body may be erased or absent altogether. In this situation, all you have to do is contact the dealer. There is absolutely no need to go to the service center. All you have to do is call the phone and provide the details of the radio that needs to be unlocked. The series and number will be enough to get the password.

How to enter the code

After the code is carefully written down on a piece of paper, it’s time to unlock the radio, and here many drivers have a lot of questions. One of the most common: how to enter numbers? It's actually quite simple. For input, use the keys responsible for selecting radio frequencies.

The general algorithm for entering the password required to unlock the radio is as follows:

  1. First, a request message will appear on the display.
  2. The next step is to enter the code using the buttons.
  3. The display has only four positions, so be extremely careful when entering. After each cell is filled, the process will proceed in the second circle.
  4. At the end of the combination, press *.

At the same time, the owner of the car immediately has a question, which is quite natural: why is such an inconvenient measure used for the driver of a Renault Duster? The answer is clear as day: the manufacturing company has made sure that no hijackers or thieves even try to steal expensive electronics in order to profit from it. Until the radio code is entered, it is a piece of plastic and metal, and, of course, will not be able to properly perform its direct functions.

Every car owner who, at least once, was faced with the need to enter a radio code on his Renault Duster, at that moment certainly asked himself the following question: how to find out this treasured radio code, and in general how should it be used? According to the official instructions, a unique number for unlocking the system can be found in the vehicle’s service book. And, indeed, on the very last page (often) you can find the default code.

I can’t install the code, what should I do?

Currently, there are special generator programs on the Internet that receive an unlock code using a special unique number, which in turn is indicated on the case, that is, pre-code.

  1. You need to remove the radio from the center console and read it on the special tag at the back end.
  2. Press and hold the buttons with numbers 1 and 6 for a few seconds, then the required number will appear on the display.

So, when you have taken possession of the treasured pre-code, it should be entered into the generated program, which can be easily found on thematic sites and forums. The generator is easy to use; the pre-code of the radio is entered in a special window and it produces a code.

A selection of codes for the radio.

To protect your car from robbers, a special radio code for Renault Duster is used as one of the preventive measures. The only thing that the manufacturers did not take into account is that at the moment it is quite simple to calculate this code. Car owners themselves may encounter the problem of finding a code when replacing a car radio with an alternative one, when the battery is disconnected for a long time, or when changing the firmware of a standard radio.

There are several ways to find out the code. To do this you need:

  1. Read the instructions for audio equipment
  2. The code for the Renault Duster radio installed by the manufacturer can be found on the sticker, which is duplicated in the technical data sheet and the glove box. In the pre-restyling model, it can be located in the luggage compartment under the mat.
  3. When removed, you can inspect the radio. It can be applied to the back of the panel.
  4. If you press buttons 1 and 6 on the radio simultaneously, then after a while the necessary numbers will appear on the screen.

The precode consists of a letter and three numbers. It is installed by the manufacturer and assigned to the device at the assembly stage.

If you need to find out the precode for a touchscreen radio, you need to choose one of the three most acceptable options:

  1. Study the technical data sheet of the device
  2. Contact an authorized dealer.
  3. Find out the code yourself through a special program - a calculator.

The code calculator for Renault Duster allows you, with the help of simple manipulations, to obtain an encryption code with which you can flash the radio, change the navigation program, change the monitor resolution, reconfigure the operation of the steering buttons and much more. To do this, it must be entered into the memory of the Renault Duster radio.

To enter the code on the radio, you must use buttons 1 to 4, which correspond to the serial numbers of the code. To record the dialed code, you need to press and hold the number 6 for a few seconds.

It is important to remember that if you enter the code incorrectly multiple times, the device may be blocked for some time.

What to do if the cipher is not found

It happens that for one reason or another, the Renault Duster service book does not contain an unlock code for the audio system. In this case, you should contact the dealer so that he can find the required code in his database and give it to you. True, as the experience of many car owners shows, the seller may often demand a separate fee for this, which, of course, does not suit everyone.

Fortunately, a way out of this predicament was found quite a long time ago.

There are two ways to find out. The first is to remove the device from the center console and read the data on the tag, which is located on the rear end. However, you can do without this: by pressing and holding the “1” and “6” buttons, you can highlight the required number on the display. This does not always happen and depends on the model of the standard radio, so you may have to use the first method.

When the pre-code is received, it must be inserted into the generator program. It is easy to find on the Internet and thematic forums. By pressing a button and writing into the pre-code generator window of the head unit, it is able to immediately issue the required code.
