becker cdr 220 radio code

[CoBeerToad]

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.

I have found this to be the best resource:

Lost Radio Code - post your request here - 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S) - RennTech.org Forums

Do people with 2003 boxsters have to worry about a code, i read on renntech that you don't...

[EssexPorsche]

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!
