How the process works
The entire thing needs one piece of information and two minutes of your time.
- 1 Find the number on the unit The serial sits on a label on the radio chassis, not in the car's paperwork. Ease the unit forward with release keys to see it.
- 2 Enter the serial Exactly as printed, without spaces or dashes. The format is checked before any payment.
- 3 Unlock the radio The code appears the moment the payment clears, and a copy goes to your email. Save it - the same four digits work for the life of the radio.
If it does not work, you get your money back.
This is an example label - the one in your car sits in the same place and looks much like it.

Check If This Is Your Radio
Compare the design, controls, display and features listed below with your factory-installed radio - the Chrysler RBT Alpine is easy to tell apart once you know what to look for.
How to recognise it:
- The chassis label carries the RBT sales code
- Serial number starting with TQ1AA, TT1AA, TH1AA, THAAA, TCAAA
Tick these off to be sure:
- RBT appears as the sales code on the label
- the label serial begins with TQ1AA, TT1AA, TH1AA, THAAA, TCAAA
- the model year sits within 2001-2007
RBT and RBL look nearly identical on the front. The deciding signal is the chassis part number - RBT uses P05064384 and P05091608 prefixes, RBL uses the P04858513/P04859504/P05269 families. Externally, RBT often has the "Infinity" or alpine-amp badge on the lower-right corner of the face.
Introducing the Chrysler RBT Alpine
The Chrysler RBT Alpine is a dealer-installed Chrysler audio and multimedia unit. Alongside everyday radio and audio playback it may include touchscreen controls, Bluetooth, CD/DVD playback or factory navigation, depending on how the vehicle was specified.
RBT is the Alpine cassette-plus-single-CD double-DIN with the higher-output amp variant - sits between RBL and RBP in trim level. Same face layout as RBL (cassette over CD) but with a stronger built-in amplifier feeding the door speakers directly without an external amp.
Look for the Chrysler RBT Alpine in Chrysler vehicles from 2001-2007. It shared the Alpine multimedia platform and is still widely fitted from that period.
Features you may find on the Chrysler RBT Alpine:
AM/FM radio
CD player
CD playback
AUX and USB input*
Steering wheel control support
Anti-theft security code
*Availability varies with the vehicle specification.
Like many factory-installed radios, the Chrysler RBT Alpine is protected by an anti-theft system. If power is interrupted after replacing or disconnecting the vehicle battery, the unit may request the original radio code before it can be used again.
For the manufacturer's own documentation of this platform, see Alps Alpine, the unit's manufacturer.
Four Ways a Chrysler RBT Alpine Ends Up Locked
Nearly all of the Chrysler RBT Alpine codes we generate follow one of these four events.
A repair cut the power
Alternator, starter or fuse-box work usually means disconnecting the battery - and the radio locks itself as a side effect of the repair.
A second-hand radio
The code does not transfer from one unit to another: the swapped-in unit has a different serial, and that serial is what the code is calculated from.
You bought the car second-hand
No handbook, no code card, seller unreachable - none of it matters. The radio's own serial number carries everything needed to calculate the code.
A battery change
A new battery - or a flat one after the car stood over winter - cuts power to the radio, and the anti-theft system arms itself the moment power returns.
Whichever of these applies, the fix is identical: the serial number off the radio, the form at the top of this page, and the code is emailed in seconds.
How to Get the Serial Number From Your Radio
Every Chrysler RBT Alpine has a unique serial number, and the unlock code is worked out from it. You will find that number on the unit's own label - it is not in the service book and not on the dashboard.
On this unit: Top of the chassis, white sticker, near the back-right edge. Pull the radio with DIN keys (300M, Intrepid) or T20 Torx on the rails (WJ Grand Cherokee).
Getting to the label:
- Bring the radio out of its slot; release keys do it in seconds and nothing needs disconnecting.
- Find the printed label on the housing and read the serial off it - it sits beside the barcode.
- Type it into the form exactly as printed, with no spaces or dashes.

Some vehicle models were available with more than one factory radio depending on trim level, production year or regional market. Always verify your radio model before ordering a code.
Putting the code into the radio
The code goes straight into the radio, not into the car's menus.
- Give the radio power - the display comes up asking for the code.
- Power on - "CODE 0000" appears. Preset 1 steps digit one, preset 2 digit two, preset 3 digit three, preset 4 digit four. Confirm with preset 5. Some RBT builds tied to Infinity-amp vehicles want the EJECT button held briefly after preset 5 as a secondary confirm.
- Enter the right digits and the unit returns to normal operation immediately.
Troubleshooting the Chrysler RBT Alpine
The unit will not take more codes
Wrong codes put the unit into a lockout, and the only fix is to leave it powered and wait. Three wrong entries triggers a 60-minute "WAIT" lockout. The radio must stay powered for the timer to run.
I cannot find the serial number
It is printed on the housing, so the unit normally has to come forward to read it. Top of the chassis, white sticker, near the back-right edge. Pull the radio with DIN keys (300M, Intrepid) or T20 Torx on the rails (WJ Grand Cherokee).
Why it happened again
That is normal - the anti-theft system re-arms every time the unit loses power. Loss of 12V supply, radio removal, or alternator replacement.
I am not sure I have the right variant
Close relatives of this unit look almost identical from the driver's seat. RBT and RBL look nearly identical on the front. The deciding signal is the chassis part number - RBT uses P05064384 and P05091608 prefixes, RBL uses the P04858513/P04859504/P05269 families. Externally, RBT often has the "Infinity" or alpine-amp badge on the lower-right corner of the face.
Note the four digits somewhere safe - they are permanent and reusable after any power cut.
