and how do i remove a stored LOC code? and get it back to normal if i so desire?

i namely want it for the flashing red light, i know its not much, but it should be enough to ward off a timid car/stereo thief.

you'd be surprised....people will steal anything from cars

True enough, I guess you cant take anything for granted.

Any thief that's so timid that he'd be afraid of a tiny LED flashing better not quit his day job. A if he's into stealing factory stereos, he more then likely knows all about how to retrieve the code for them. Theftlock was a complete waste in my opinion, and just a pain in the ass for the rest of us when we want to upgrade or replace, and even when we loose power to the stereo.

i don't see how entering in 3 digits when the radio looses power is that big a ordeal.

 

and further more, i asked HOW to do it. not "why is this a dumb idea?"

I think I provided enough links to answer your actual question. Consider the answer to the second as a bonus hidden track. :wink:
