More importantly, is the car 6-cyl or 4-cyl?

Codes are unique to each radio, and sometimes programmable by the owner.
You'll have to find the owners manual to yours and get the number that
came with YOUR radio, or hopefully you wrote it down. Otherwise, it
would have to be sent back to a Kenwood service shop to be reset and
given a new code. This may cost more than the radio is worth.

Best of luck,
Tim

Do some net research. I recently had one in for repair that was locked
that i unlocked. I found on line a method of using the remote and
front panel keys to unlock some models.

No, the number of cylinders is not significant. What is important is
the number of doors. If the number of doors is even, then one process
is needed to unlock it, and if the number of doors is odd, then
another process is used.

Whatever happened to telling them to put the radio in the freezer overnight?

Two men dressed in pilots’ uniforms walk up the aisle. Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane. Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit, the door closes, and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign that this is just a little practical joke. None is forthcoming. The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and the people sitting in the window seats realize they’re headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport territory. As it begins to look as though the plane will plough into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin. At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands.
In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, “You know, Bob, one of these days, they’re gonna scream too late and we’re all gonna die.”

It didn't work when your parents did it to you, and it doesn't work on
flash memory.

I know it doesn't work. But people used to say it did, which is why I mentioned it. There were plenty of other silly things about doors, but everyone forgot the obvious.

An expectant mother was being rushed to the hospital, but
didn't quite make it.

She gave birth to her baby on the hospital lawn. Later, the
father received a bill, listing "Delivery Room Fee: $500."

He wrote the hospital and reminded them the baby was born
on the front lawn. A week passed, and a corrected bill arrived:

"Greens Fee: $200."

You've never bought car parts at the dealer? They ask that when you
buy a gas cap. The databases are set up that you need the year & model,
along with other questions to drill down to the information you want. It
is designed to be used by mechanics, not computer experts.

Because, just maybe, the phule would take the hint and reveal the
manufacturer's model number of the radio.

I usually get asked the engine number. I never have this to hand and give them the make, model, year, etc. They are at a loss to find anything.
