2003 C320 Audio 10 PROD lockout
Bought it off eBay a while ago and installed it, powered it on, it played for 30 seconds or so, then it stopped working and the word PROD showed up on the display. It can see the CD changer, info shows in MFD and everything seems working fine except the 30 seconds lockout. I think I triggered the anti-theft protection. What should I do? I've done my searches but I'm getting mixed result... some said I need to ship it to Becker, some said the dealer can fix it.
I already visited 2 dealerships but they both have no clue on what they can do because they've never seen this headunit before
Any programming instruction that I can give the dealer? They said they can play with it, no guarantee to fix it, and they're going to charge straight labour charge so I want the process as painless as possible. Thx in adv for your help!

It is possible that it is "permanently" locked and will require resetting by Becker.
So, what you found in your searches is correct.
