look in your owner's manual for the radio code (written on a card). enter that number it should work. if you don't have the radio code, you need to go to a dealer to reset it

Some people write the code also on the radio it self in case they lose the card. If you don't have the card, pull the radio out and check befor going to the dealer.

LOL. that defeats the purpose of the code in the first place

but good point they might have done that.

Yes, u are correct.... When I got my 850 I didn't have the code and when I pulled the radio I was like WTF? lol... But it saved me a trip to the dealer.
