hey hey,
my car wouldnt start this morning, I was stuck outside an access point and it turned out the battery was dead, lucky for me I was on a hill so I just pushed myself off and got it started again, got home and it seems to be starting fine now, but now the radio is asking for a code which i dont have, i asked the previous owner and they didnt have a clue, i cant drive without music!! its a Fiat Punto with a bog standard cassette player.
I know Blonde is the fountain of all knowledge and was wondering if anyone had any idea's of how i could bodge it to work again!

Ring a Fiat main dealer, quote your regestration and VIN numbers. They will have the code on computer.(Some dealers charge you for this service)

About to post the same.  Also, you can search on google for 'fiat punto radio code' - some fella's charging £9 for a code.

The other thing to do is buy a new stereo that plays CDs (and MP3s) for about £30.

If you ring the dealer that sold the car it should be on record, they will either charge less or not at all.

buy one on ebay with a cd changer for circa £20.
I have one, comes with slight screwdriver damage, however.

sometimes these codes are known to be written somewhere "on" the car, eg underside of the bonnet is a good place to find it.
