How to input code in radio that has no alpha-numeric key pad on mercedes e430
Hi all,
My radio does not look like shown in manual (right does not have is alpha-numeric keypad). I have a code (after battery reconnection), but I don't see keypad to enter. Anyone can help, please ?

Hi and Welcome to the forum -
Your car should have a Becker 6003 which has a keypad on the right side. Maybe someone has installed an aftermarket radio. Most of those will not require a code and will play just fine after the power is interrupted.

since you didn't provide picture, not sure how to advise, but....out on a limb,
i'm going to suggest a possible: using the control knob on the right, turn
to cycle through digits. then, press the knob inwards to set. the number
may 'take' then automatically advance to the next digit for selection. after
all the digits are in place correctly, the radio will activate.
hope this procedure works for you
