Good news on the radio.

"I just finished removing windshield and bondo-Ing the metal and painting it ... was 
rusty and had small holes"

I wonder about this. Windshields today are to some extent structural entities. 
They make the body more rigid and they have to be able to retain the airbag 
when it goes off so that it protects you.
I hope you are satisfied that your repair is up to this, for your own safety.

It gets a million stations and right side speaker works which was not with the

Great radio for $25 delivered

Rick, congratulations!  This sounds like the kind of radio anyone would
want to own.

Along with the code, I also need 1) your home address and 2) hours when you
are in the deepest sleep (not easily awakened by loud noises or car alarms,
etc.).

Thanks,

[MBZ] Sprinter Becker code

2021-06-18 Thread Rick Hawkins Java Letterpress Cycles Photon via Mercedes
Folks,

I solved the code problem

Messaged the ebay seller and he said it’s your lucky day and gave me the code

It’s 64211 if you want to steal my radio (I also wrote it in sharpie on the top 
of the unit.

Well, it mounted perfectly, powered up and took the code. I eliminated the 
adapter harness and adapter antenna wire and the jvc radio and the plugs all 
fit the Becker

It gets a million stations and right side speaker works which was not with the 
JVC

Great radio for $25 delivered

As for the codes, I think the code is in the vin info registery BUT this is an 
orphan radio now

Supposedly there is a .pdf of all Becker codes around  and supposedly with 
model# and radio serial you can look it up

Anyway I am happy ... I’m about to drive the sprinter to chincoteague island to 
pick up a Bajaj  3 wheeled rickshaw like pickup that I hope to sell for 10.5 k 

I just finished removing windshield and bondo-Ing the metal and painting it ... 
was rusty and had small holes

It’s good... I had pros r and r it for $130

I also replaced the alternator and some tensioner wheels and serpentine belt 
and brake light switch ... seems ok

I drove it from tybee to Aiken sc to Athens ga and back on one tank of some 25 
or so gallons

That’s the news from tybee ... Instagram is printerrickthe for those who do that
