I bought a six disc changer off of Ebay. Well to my dismay it is locked and the guy/co I bought it from will not respond to my emails to help me figure out how to unlock this unit. Is there anything I can do, other than taking it to the dealer, to unlock this unit.:( :help:

You take it to your dealer and ask them to program it for your truck. That unlocks the radio. Be prepared to spend $50-100 depending on your dealer. They will need your VIN and the radio part number (so write it down before you install it). Also, you may want to take in your EBay paperwork to show you bought it.


You are not out of luck.

Well I did that and the dealer did not charge me at all..... Judging by some of the remarks in some of the forums I think I got a good deal
