The format of the Becker serial is B1234567 but the decode software only expects 4 digits. I have tried the last 4 numbers but that doesn't work & now I've locked the bl**dy thing out, grrrr. Cheers, Chrisall

I presume that it will allow me to enter a code again after a certain length of time has elapsed? At the moment it displays '----' instead of 'CODE' and it won't let me enter anything. Cheers, Chris

I can't enter anything at the moment as it's locked-out. I've tried leaving it disconnected for a couple of hours but that's made no difference so I guess it needs to be connected with the ignition on for a certain length of time to display 'CODE' again instead of just '----'? I think I might have found the correct code though - I stumped up on an online code site I found, the code given is one digit different to the one the software generated, so fingers crossed....will post back tomorrow if it works! Other bit of good news is that the ebay seller of the unit refunded me the cost of the online code. Thanks for all the input, Chris.
