Hi Incognito2112,

Try calling your local dealer. When I change the battery on my ML, I realized I didn't have the radio code and called the dealer who was able to look up the number for me.

Dealer

Yeah,
My dealer requires a lookup fee. Out of principal I have a problem with shelling out money to unlock something I already own. Plus they are closed until tomorrow and I would have to take time off work to get down there to produce my registration.

Any help would still be appreciated.

Call a different dealership... I've had dealerships look up radio codes before, and they didn't charge me. Maybe you can find one open today. Good luck.
