ok well i switched out my battery and i knew this was gonna happen cause i just bought the car and it was armed... so now i donno the number to turn it off... i pulled out the breaker on the thing and now it says In0P

what do i do?

 

Mine did this but when it said LoC I took it to our local GM dealer. It must be in the car for them to get the codes off of it and then they call in the codes. A few minutes later they will tell you the code for your radio. But since yours says Inop I dont know if this would work.

pull the battery terminal off overnight and see if it goes back to lock, if it does then do when CMANZ28 said

 

Sent you an email.. let me know if it works!..

i left the thing unplugged for 6 hours but when i wired the battery back up it was still saying inop...

and what you sent me didnt work

 

HEY HEY HEY

I can help on this one!

There is a way that you can do it without taking to dealer. When I get to work on Monday I will post on how to do it.

Working in retail has its benefits

 

I have the whole write up on it too. I will post again when I find it.

 

sorry did a search on google found out i had to leave key in ignition for 1 hour... then i could try to get the number.

damn my code was 109... it only gives u 8 tries... it stopped letting me try at 107 2 away

 

Congrats
Mine is 822 so it would have taken me a LONG time to get it. Anyways could you post the way to do it without taking it to a GM dealer? I'm just curious.

Thanks
Chad

 

Theftloc Bypass

1. Press and hold presets 2 & 3 for about 10 seconds until the first 3 digits of the display code are displayed
2. Write the numbers down.
3. Press the AM FM button, write down the next 3 numbers
4. Call 1-800-537-5140, when asked, enter 202107, press the “button” and enter the 6 digit code from the radio, you will get an unlock code, write it down.
5. Go back to the car, press the HR button and set the first 2 numbers, then press minute button and set the next two last numbers, press AM FM button, SEC should be displayed, turn on radio
To remove customers code, repeat step 5. you should see --- on radio face, the code is now out of the radio.

Update....
Try this. I found it on another forum.

The dealer quote listed on the thread does not work, but i was able to find one on the internet. The 5-digit code which did it for me was 06010. Before this a 2 must be entered for Pontiac, and an asterisk after, so when prompted after calling 1-800-537-5140, pontiac guys enter:

206010. The website where i got the dealer code is here:

The site has been taken down, this is a cached version on google's server. I have saved a copy of it on my harddrive incase it ever disappears. I will post this same message on the other thread too.

maybe they change codes every now and then

 

Thats right... I am at work now and just started to write a reply. He beat me to it!

 

Thanks man

 

the code that worked for me was 102107* everything works fine now!! Dealer said $70 to fix it. Screw them. Thx alot guys!!!!!

 

Wow, thats great. Saved my some cash
