Ford Sony radios

Sony-branded CD, CD/MP3 and DAB radios were fitted to Ford’s higher trims. They look different from the standard 6000 CD but use the same V series code. The label shows a longer serial – SOCD, a few characters, then V + 6 digits – and type either form: the V part is picked out automatically.

Drawing of a Ford label with a prefix before the serial: SERIAL NO. B1C00 V123456 – enter only V123456
A prefix before the V serial is normal on Ford labels (our drawing).

How to enter the code on a Ford Sony radio

  1. With the radio showing CODE, press preset 1 until the first digit is right.
  2. Set the other digits with 2, 3 and 4.
  3. Confirm by holding 5 – on some Sony units, press the OK button.

After a wrong code the radio shows WAIT for about 30 minutes. See radio locked after wrong codes.

What do I type from a Sony label like SOCD6X7V123456?

Either the whole serial or only V123456 – both give the same code. The V and the 6 digits after it are what counts.

How do I see the serial on a Ford Sony radio?

Switch the radio off, hold preset buttons 1 and 6 and switch it on. The serial scrolls past on the display – film it with your phone if it is too fast.
