To unlock the radio, there are many different codes. I just put a 2008 radio in my 2006 VW Jetta. Had to call the dealer to get the code. They need your VIN from the current car and the Serial number off the radio. My code was 0185, try that.
I don't know if the same goes for the MkIII Jettas, but on the MkIV Jettas the radio code is located on/beneath the spare tire in the trunk. Should be a 4 digit number.
Go to any GM dealer. Show them proof of ownership. They will provide you with the code necessary to turn it back on.
If the Theftlock has locked the radio, and you do not have the code, you will need a GM dealer to unlock it.
call the dealer they can give it to you or may charge a small fee
As far as I know you must have the Vin number and the radio serial number. Both of these numbers have to be submitted by an authorized VW dealer through VW Hub to get a theft code.
find out the company that was subcontracted to make the radio for VW. It might be a blaupunkt. email them and see if they can send you the code
I just had this same problem with my 1998 VW Jetta. My parking brake light came on one day, but only half illuminated. Shortly after my windshield wipers and headlights stopped working. My radio works but the fans don't work either. I just found a thread which seems to point the problem at the ignition switch: http://car.justanswer.com/volkswagen/6uht-1998-volkswagen-jetta-headlights
remove the radio of the car than it will be a # on the radio call your locar vw service dealer to ask for the code.
No. There is no illumination, speed or retained accesory power in the factory radio. It is accomplished with car's CANbus communication. To hookup illumination wire on 2006 VW Jetta, tap into white/black wire at the light switch. It dims your lights on your radio. You can also set up different color for day and night.

Take your car to the vw dealership and they will give will put the code into your radio, however they will most likely charge you $100 dollars for getting the code for you and putting it in the radio. I see about 3-4 cars a day come in for radio codes so once you get that code keep it in a safe place you might need it again. On my 1996 VW Jetta you must hold down the right seek or scan button until the display blanks out. Then you can enter the unlock code.
