I think there is a thread on renntech for getting your radio code, just to save you a trip to the dealer.

juan986, good to know
I din't find my cigarret plug adapter so I used a paperclip, worked in a few minutes.. perfect
all that because I wanted to charge my battery and keep the door lock because it was outside.. and my charger was not powerfull enough.. (1amp) I'll get a real car charger tonight and give it another try before buying a new battery

Thanks everyones for the help!

To let everyone know for future reference, it worked!

a mini screwdriver is a little too big to manoeuvre in that small area but with the paper clip it work like a charm, be patient, and go deep.. I had it in 10 min..

i dont understand why you need to use a battery maintainer.

why not just simply disconnect the battery? its so simple to do.

am i missing something?
