How to Unlock a Alpine Radio in Mercedes-Benz
Alpine built OEM head units for Mercedes-Benz, including CM and MCS series radios and Audio 10 CD style units fitted to various models. The unlock code for these Alpine Mercedes radios is tied to the radio's own serial number found on a label on the unit or shown on the display, rather than to the Mercedes VIN, so the exact serial on your unit is what matters.
When a Mercedes battery is disconnected or goes flat, the Alpine radio commonly locks and shows CODE, SAFE or LOCKED until the correct code is keyed in. This is the standard factory anti-theft feature and does not mean the radio has failed. Read the serial number from your Alpine unit, enter it here, and retrieve your Mercedes radio code online.
A Alpine radio asking for a code is not usually a sign of damage. Most original car stereos include built-in anti-theft protection that requests a security code whenever the battery is disconnected.
If you have the radio serial number, we can help you find the correct unlock code quickly. Everything can be completed online, so you can unlock your radio without unnecessary delays.
Situations That Can Lock Your Alpine Radio
The Alpine radio security system is designed to protect the stereo against theft. Whenever the radio cannot verify continuous power, it will request a unlock code.
A few common situations can trigger it:
Disconnecting the Battery
Service Work
Moving the Radio to a Different Car
Blown Fuse
