A radio, whether it is a factory model in Volkswagen vehicles, like the one shown in the video, which is also installed in the Volkswagen Passat, or in other cars, can easily become locked due to loss of power, for example, when changing the vehicle's battery, or due to attempted theft.

The reset and restoration can only be done using the security code, which is shown on the sticker located on the back of the radio.

After entering the code, normal operation is restored.
