Free Fiat 500 Radio Code

Which radio is in your 500?

Radio names are what is written on the fascia, not the name of the company that built the unit — a “6000 CD” or an “RCD 300” is what you see in the car. Unit fitment varies by market and trim, so treat the list as the usual case and let the serial decide: it is the serial that determines the code, not the model.

Fiat 500 radio code by year

From 2007 to 2015 the 500 came with the radios below; the serial on the unit is what decides the code.

Fiat 500 radio code (2007–2015)

On 500 cars from 2007–2015 the radio fitted was usually one of: Blaupunkt 199, Bosch MP3 Ivory AUX2+, Continental VP1/VP2. The serial reads 815… / BP… / A2C…; label on the casing — pull the unit with a pair of release keys. Send us that serial: the code is free by email within 24 hours, or on the page straight away if you pay to skip the wait.

How to enter the code in your 500

1. Power the radio up — CODE appears, then four dashes.
2. Blaupunkt (BP…) and Bosch (815…) units — Punto, Grande Punto, Idea, Croma, Fiat 500 and most Fiats of 1999–2013: the code uses only the digits 1 to 6. Press the preset with the number of each digit once — for 3512 press 3, then 5, then 1, then 2. There is no confirm button: the radio starts by itself after the fourth digit. Enter all four within 20 seconds.
3. Visteon units (Stilo, Bravo — the display reads RADIO M-CODE): presets 1–4 each step their digit from 0 to 9, then press 5 to confirm.
4. Units with a knob that ask for a Password: turn the right-hand knob to set each digit, press it to move on, and press it once more after the fourth digit.
5. After a wrong code the display shows WAIT or Radio blocked/wait. Leave the ignition and radio on until it clears — a minute after the first wrong code, doubling each time up to 24 hours. Disconnecting the battery does not clear it.

• Digit keys

Careful: most units lock for good after about ten wrong attempts. If a code does not take, stop and email us before trying again.
