Fiesta Mk7 Radio Code

[UK Sentinel]

So my Sons Mk7 Fiesta needs the car battery replaced (winter has arrived) and thought it nice to share that nowadays, most  car radios have a radio code you need to enter if the car battery is ever unplugged to get the car radio working again.

For the Ford Fiesta MK7, (2010) the Car radio does not need a radio code as the car radio is pre programmed with cars VIN reference, so the radio checks this every time the car radio is turned on .

FWIW: – Using a car memory keep alive battery would be useful in this situation to keep all those digital settings,  but for Fiesta MK7, only radio channels will be lost. (I believe)

Edit:- Car Battery was replaced and radio stations remained.

So after replacing the Fiesta MK 7 car battery, only the cars clock needed resetting and the front electric Windows auto-up function no longer worked.

To reset the Fiesta Electric window auto up we rolled the windows fully down and kept the button pressed for a couple of seconds and then fully closed the window and again kept the button pressed for a couple of seconds,  now auto window up works ;)
