My wife has low mileage 1999 Micra but the stereo's in lock mode.
I have radio code in handbook but cant enter it - Radio displays "WAIT" on screen when I switch it on then after about a minute displays "SECURE". Have followed instructions in Nissan handbook to the letter. Its standard-issue Nissan radio cassette model B BP6345.
Have already googled for solution to problem, am trying to avoid going to main-dealers.
Any info would be very much appreciated. Thx.

Am not deliberately avoiding Nissan main-dealer, its just that if anyone reading this could help solve a small problem with our runabout-car of this age then any info would be very much appreciated. Thx.

Thanks for reply Mr. Happy, have no reason to believe the radio isn't original but will see what I can do.
I realise I might have to bin existing radio although theres probably some long-winded procedure for getting it out only to have to throw it away in the bin and replace it with a similar one.
Why would anyone want to steal the cassette-tape-player from a Nissan Micra in the first place, security and paranoia gone mad. But thanks again.
