If you are in Victoria you could take it to ASL Automedia, they are a sponsor of this site and the official Ford agent for their radios on Falcons.

Cool Re: AU Fairlane won't take radio code

Hi all sorry to jump in but I have a similar prob
I changed batteries the other day
and had to recode the stereo
I thought I knew the code as Ive had the car for ten years
but I got it wrong three times and now it reads "err"
I left the battery disconected over night but still the same prob still err
it wont let me enter the code (which I now know) as I read the book
is there anything else I can do
thanks John

You have to leave the ignition on for an hour and then you ll be able to put the code in. What I did I was driving around and and eventually I was able to put the code in. Hope this helps.

Maybe the radio has been changed?
You might have to pull the radio out to see if the code is handwriten on the back or if not, use the radio serial number to get the code off Ford

Hope this helps.
