    After entering the Code incorrectly 4 times (couldnt find the code)my head unit now displays ----

    I have now found the code was wondering if there was any way (like removing the battery for a period of time) to have the head unit give me another crack at entering the code.

    Thanks

    After 4 incorrect attempts you will be locked out for 1 hour, then you will only be allowed 3 attempts.

    Got It!

    I removed the battery for an hour and it still didnt let me retry so i thought f**k it ill take to holden and get them to reset it next week.

    Then, while i was driving last night i looked down at the head unit and voila there it was, my second chance and it worked!!

    Cheers for all your input!
