    Hello, how much will it take to recover the code from the eeprom of the car electronics and how much can this service cost? There are some other easier methods or is there a visit to VW? I would try to undress myself but to know my luck I will probably damage the scales and latches from the dashboard ...

    Latches with snaps, what kind of reading equipment do you have? ???

    try calling aso vw, tell me that you were repairing the car and you had to disconnect the accumulator and the radio coded you. If the radio is original from this car then give them a vin and they should say something

    @Ireneo I only have ICSP and UART because it deals with uC a bit. As if it could be read through the I2C bus and save in the series or to a file only that still such madness I did not try :)



    @ patryk44gks

    The car was imported, but nowhere could I find the card with the code, and at the commission they ordered to go to the electronics which will unlock for a pittance. eh :)

    In ATS, the price will probably not be a tragedy. Something more than a hundred. In radiocode from about PLN 50 to the price of ASO.

    but a little strange as it happened to encode the radio I also have a golf 5 and the original radio toy car happened to a week without a battery and after connecting everything is spinning

    Maybe he has a battery that supports memory?

    The cost and time of decoding depend on the radio model. Usually it is reading the external EEPROM memory but it can also be reading the CPU memory, and not every car electronics will do it because it will not have anything. Let the Lord take out the radio in this commission to determine the model, and then you will know whether the code with the ASO or decoding is worth it. The second issue - usually the factory radio in this car with the correct connection do not call for a code - the code is entered only at the first connection and then the "car remembers" your radio. So, for example, in the car there is an item storing the number of the factory radio or the radio is not from this car and the ASO will not help here or even hurt if the numbers are in the Interpol database.

    Because now I wonder if it is better to buy a regular radio CD and simply mount it? I understand that it will not interfere with the correctness of the car's operation?

    I understand that the car owner will have to explain before the prosecutor's office? Do they just confiscate the radio?

    Ordinary radio - masking frame, electrical installation adapter, separator. Maybe it is easier to check what radio does?

    The second question - both.

    There is always an option to buy such a radio with the code ~ 150 PLN and for this a good transmitter + 100 PLN. Because the lack of AUX and USB socket is a terrible poverty.

    What is your recommendation for a good quality car radio with good sound (if there is one), aim at pioneer?

    I bought pioneer usb, sd, bt with audio option, upper bottom filters, external microphone, remote control. For 370 and I would not like a factory one, and I also saw for 300 PLN about, I used it.

    I will have to wait for the next payday because now I have some other expenses that are painful for my budget (studies, laptop, mechanic, etc.). I would not want to buy a refund for PLN 40, unless for the period until I do not buy something better because without the radio, I will get the neurosis.

    This szrot is worth something? 6699824517 or 6893007011 I mean, just let something play. I do not care about any BT, just to make the USB flash.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around recovering the radio code for a VW Golf V by accessing the EEPROM of the car's electronics. Users share insights on the potential costs of professional services, estimating around PLN 50 to over PLN 100, depending on the radio model and service provider. Some suggest contacting VW's authorized service (ASO) with the vehicle's VIN for assistance. DIY attempts to extract the code using ICSP and UART are mentioned, but risks of damaging dashboard components are highlighted. Alternatives include purchasing a new radio, with recommendations for brands like Pioneer, which offer models with modern features such as USB and Bluetooth connectivity. The conversation also touches on the implications of using non-original radios and the importance of ensuring compatibility with the vehicle's electronics.
