Never pay more or wait longer than you need to for a Nissan radio code again.
We generate all Nissan radio unlock codes instantly, so whether you drive a Micra or a Qashqai, whether you listen to Capital FM or your own tunes – we'll get you back into your radio or sat nav in minutes.
When your Nissan radio, stereo or sat nav becomes disconnected from the battery, usually due to a garage service or a low battery, it automatically locks and begins to ask for a radio code. As this is an anti-theft feature it's not possible to unlock a Nissan radio without this code, but getting hold of your radio code is an easy process that can be done in minutes. Many dealerships and online generators decode the radio code from the VIN number, but this code will be incorrect if the radio has ever been changed in the vehicle's lifetime.
The most accurate way to get your Nissan radio's code is by decoding it from the radio's serial number. This will look like one of the following examples:
There are two methods to find your radio's serial number – a fast one and a slightly slower one.
Always double-check that the serial number you enter matches the serial number on your radio's display or sticker label, as we are usually unable to offer refunds for radio codes decoded from incorrect serial numbers.
On some Nissan radio or sat nav models it's possible to reveal the serial number on the display without removing your radio. While the radio is asking for a code, hold down buttons 1 and 6 on your radio for up to 10 seconds - if it works this will show the last 4 characters of your serial number on your display. This will always be 1 letter followed by 3 numbers, e.g. A123. If this doesn't work, try holding 2 and 6 instead. On newer models you may also be able to see the serial number by entering an incorrect serial number three times.
If none of the quick methods work to display your serial number, you'll need to remove your radio to reveal the serial number on its label. Don't worry – removing your radio isn't as hard as it sounds, but it is the hardest part of getting a radio unlock code, which means that once you've done it the rest is easy. For most Nissan radio models, the only tools you will need are a standard Philips (round/crosshead) screwdriver and a pry tool, which can be found for cheap from your local Halfords or not-so-local Amazon store.

Once you've removed your radio, look for a sticker label at the top containing the radio's serial number. Note that we are currently only able to support serial numbers starting with BP.
We may also ask for the part number to guarantee that the radio code we generate for you is accurate - the part number is located on the same sticker label as the serial number, starts with 7 6 and consists of only numbers and spaces.
Once you have your serial number, all that’s left is to enter it into our Nissan radio code decoder and generator at the top of this page.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to unlock a Nissan radio asking for a code without entering the code. This is intentional as radio unlock codes were originally designed as an anti-theft feature to make it harder for thieves to steal and resell car radios.
Due to the costs of running a small business providing radio codes around the world 24/7, it's not possible to sustainably offer Nissan radio codes for free. There are many decoding services out there that attract customers with the word "free" only to reveal a price at the very last second or fail to deliver a code at all (as shown by their reviews). Our prices will always be shown up-front, and our radio codes are already priced as low as possible while still allowing us to stay in business, provide reliable English-speaking support to customers and continue adding support for more models and manufacturers.
Not only were we the first radio decoding company to offer radio codes for all manufacturers at one fixed price, we were also one of the first to charge as low as £4.99 - before we came along virtually no popular decoding company offered radio codes at such an affordable price. To this day we still beat 95% of our competitors on price, without making you wait around for your code.
Unfortunately it's not possible to generate a Nissan radio code from the registration plate at all. Although most dealerships and some online decoding sites do use the VIN to decode the radio code, this is not reliable due to being tied to the car rather than the radio. This means that if your radio was changed since it was first manufactured, a radio code decoded from the VIN will be incorrect. For this reason RapidRadioCodes - like most online decoders - decodes the radio code from the radio's serial number, which gives us the best chance of unlocking your radio.
All our Nissan radio codes are decoded instantly, displayed on the screen immediately after payment and sent to your email at the same time. To ensure that your code and receipt are sent to you, double-check that the email you enter when paying for your radio code is correct. If it's been more than 2 minutes since you purchased your code and you haven't received your email, get in touch with us so we can look into why this might be. In most cases this is down to a misspelt email address.
This means an incorrect radio code has been entered 10 different times. To bypass this lock leave the ignition and radio on for between 30 minutes to an hour - this should return you to the CODE or CODE IN screen and allow you to enter another code.
So you've located your serial number, entered it into our radio code generator, and received your decoded radio code in return. Congratulations! Now comes the best part: using your new radio code to unlock your Nissan radio.
This process varies depending on your vehicle's radio. Each of our Nissan radio codes come with simple instructions to enter your new code at no extra cost. To receive your entry instructions, double-check that your email address is spelt correctly at the payment stage. If it's been more than 2 minutes since you purchased your unlock code and you haven't received your email or receipt, get in touch with us so we can look into why this might be. This is usually down to a misspelt email address.
