Any help would be ratefully recieved thank you all and happy xmas!!!

if this is the uk then you should be using code 7

@browntoa, a 6600 can reject a code 7, even if it is generated correctly, when it has 2 locks.


@danbert, you need to enter code 2 as well as code 1

I thought the second lock was lock 5 but if you know better then I'll stand corrected !

no code 6, use conline calculator in this site

don't talk crap..it's not code 6

look at this thread

it was code 5 !

Code 5 removes lock 1 and 2, code 7 removes all 4 locks.

The vast majority of phones with 2 locks can use either code 5 or code 7 happily.

The point here is that some phones can reject a multi-lock code (5 or 7) even if it is calculated correctly.

For these you need to enter the "individual" codes, code 1 for lock 1, code 2 for lock 2

The 6600 is one of these phones.

Cheers.
