What to do if the radio in our Smart car is blocked, perhaps because we have replaced or disconnected the battery and cannot find the code to restart the car radio, even though we have already searched for it in the onboard documentation and inside the glove compartment.

We can find it on the website suggested in the video, which is free-radio-codes.com or on instant-radio-code.com. On both sites, which are free, just enter the full VIN code (found in the registration booklet in section 2 under the heading E), or on the courtesy plate located on the windshield, or on the metal plate located inside the driver's door.

The important thing is to enter the code in full, composed of 17 digits. Then you will receive an email with the code and you can unlock the radio.
