hey there guys i had a quick video for
you
i uh just bought this old uh 04
venture van for 150 bucks runs and
drives the only thing it needs is a
starter
uh and the radio was locked when i got
it
whatever 150 bucks for a car that runs
and drives
uh i looked up a video didn't think it
was actually going to work
there's uh to get these radios unlocked
uh
there's a little chip inside the radio
i'll show you guys in a minute that you
just break off
and then plug the radio back in and sure
enough it worked
i don't have a picture of saying lock so
i can't kind of prove it but you just
gotta take my word for it
but uh on the inside of this radio
pull that bottom cover off wherever i
slid it to oh i'm sitting on it
take that bottom cover off i just pry it
off with a screwdriver
and then uh see if i can get a
camera angle there
was a chip let's see if i can get a
screwdriver in here there was a chip
right there in front of the screwdriver
there's two chips side by side i just
broke off the top one
literally by the hole that i have the
screwdriver and popped it in there broke
it off
and plugged the radio in and it works so
uh
if you want to get your radio unlocked
just pop it open and
that first chip right there in front of
this back one right there pop that front
chip off and then plug it in and give it
a shot
because i did and uh i got a working
radio
and i'm changing the radio because it's
flipping around but anyway
instead of doing the whole running
around the
complex of uh getting the
codes for these things call numbers and
screw that
break that chip off and he got you a
working radio it said
uh cow error or something whatever i
turned it on first
time still works yeah it just says cal
error now whatever that means
calibration error
i don't know but radio works
[Music]
anyway i thought i'd make this video
real quick show you guys simple way to
fix the well fix the radio and make the
radio work if it's broke
pretty much fix the radio i guess anyway
that's the end of this video like
comment subscribe and i'll catch you
guys in the next one
