card, how can i get the code. Might try to sell the unit and upgrade. Couldn't access the archive search today, don't know why.

Thanks

The weather band still works in my radio. To get the radio code you well have to take it to a BMW dealer. They have a special tool they will use to remove the radio head and get the serial number off the back of the control head. They will put this serial number into a computer that is located in Germany and get the code for you. I don't think there is a charge for this? As far as I know this is the only way you can get the code for the radio. Good luck!
