Every Ford Fusion from 2002 to 2012: which radio was fitted, where its serial number hides, and what we can do with it.
Your code comes from the serial number of the radio, not from the car — so the first job is getting that number off the unit. The table below is your Fusion: the units fitted, and where the serial hides on each.
Already have the serial? Type it in and we will tell you straight away whether we can answer it.
| Generation | Radios fitted | Serial | Where to read it | What we do |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mk1 2002–2012 |
4500 RDS, 6000 CD, Sony | M / V | hold 1+6 or 2+6 | Free in 24 h, or instant if you pay |
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.
From 2002 to 2012 the Fusion came with the radios below; the serial on the unit is what decides the code.
On Fusion cars from 2002–2012 the radio fitted was usually one of: 4500 RDS, 6000 CD, Sony. The serial reads M / V; hold 1+6 or 2+6. 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.
Careful: most units lock for good after about ten wrong attempts. If a code does not take, stop and email us before trying again.
Mk1 (2002–2012): M / V, hold 1+6 or 2+6.
Yes. Every code we can answer is free and emailed 24 hours after you order; a small fee only skips the wait.
Turn the radio on — it asks for the code. First-generation 6000 CD, Sony CD of 2005–2006, 4500, 5000 and 4000 RDS (round presets 1–6, no 7–9 keys): press button 1 until the first digit is right, then 2, 3 and 4. Past 9 it rolls back to 0. Then press and hold button 5 to confirm. 1500 RDS: set the digits the same way, then confirm with AM/FM instead of 5. Keypad units (Sony from 2007, and the 2008+ red-display 6000 CD with a 0–9 block): just type the code — the cursor moves on by itself. Confirm with the * key or the centre button between the arrow keys. If button 5 changes a digit instead of confirming, your radio is the keypad kind: confirm with * or the centre button, held for about two seconds. TravelPilot DX/EX: turn the ENTER knob to each digit and press it; after the fourth, select the return-arrow symbol and press ENTER. After a wrong code the radio shows WAIT: leave the radio and ignition on until CODE returns — switching off restarts the wait. LOCKED means no tries are left.
Every card here is a code an owner told us worked, tied to an order we can check. Codes that did not work are not shown here, and a fee paid to skip the wait comes back automatically.
