Re: Lost code for radio on '89 100Q

[mlarosa@interserv.com]

Your Dealer should be able to call the Audi Rep and get the code.  I did this
because when I bought my 89 100 the radio was also dead.  Even with the new 
code my radio wouldn't work.  It cost the dealer I bought the car from 75.- to 
swap the dead radio for another factory radio.

Have you tried removing the unit and putting it in the freezer for a 
while. Apparently this is what car radio thieves do, and it has the 
effect of reseting the memory of the stereo (or something). It's a thread 
that somebody else might know something about - I wouldn't try it without 
knowing exactly what happens.
