Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

provided multiple choices of code, "first choice, second choice , etc" and the first choice 4-digit code worked for me.
I have a 2001 Boxter with the BECKER CDR 220 radio.. type 4462, Serial number Y5052857 and due to a disconnected battery need the radio code.. It is not printed on the label on the inside of the front hood behind the crest.. and the card is not in the becker radio book since I am the 3rd owner.. any help is appreciated. I read that Hotpants or Loren.. has a decoder.. Thanks.. HCJERSEY
Or send me the serial number again LOL I put mine on a little sticker in the bottom of the armrest cover in the center console... that way its never far away
Went through the entire internet to find my code when that happened to me. After I got the code, I popped the frunk for some reason and lo and behold. Hand written on some sticker was the code.
I would advise everybody to do the same.
Hi,
I have a 2002 Boxster with a Becker CDR 220 stereo, Type 4462, Serial # 25012241. I had to change my battery recently, and I seem to have lost my stereo code. I would appreciate any help. Thanks!!!
don't think so.
I have had the battery off mine more times than i care to count... and for long periods.
Every time i put it back on - radio does not need a code and my pre-set stations are still there.
I read that the radio knows which chassis number it belongs to, so when you power it back up after a battery change, it calls the DME and confirms its in the right car. So long as the VIN matches its all good. If not....it locks it out
I recently put a new battery in my 911 C4 and had to dig up a code since I am not the original owner; I found this thread and thought I'd pass along what I wound up doing:
I got the model and serial number by using the "hold down the TP button for 10 seconds and then use the right hand knob to display".
I found
Porsche Resetting Radio Codes
which has a Java-based code generator. It requests just the serial number in one box -- press the "Decode" button after entry. It
provided multiple choices of code, "first choice, second choice , etc" and the first choice 4-digit code worked for me.
Thanks to all who posted on this topic -- very helpful!
