1. turn ignition on (dash warning lights on)
2. If radio turned on, turn it off.
3. Press AS button in, and hold it in while turning radio on.
4. Wait approx 10 seconds (do not release AS button).
5. Radio should beep, and display should now read 10 - - - - (assuming no tries have been made in the past with the wrong code)
6. use pre-set button "1" to scroll the first digit in the display to the number you want (it goes 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 then back to 0)
7. Use pre-set "2" for second digit, etc.
8. Once display reads 10 followed by the four digit security code press and hold AS button for about 10 seconds, until the radio beeps.
9. If correct code entered display will now read "code" briefly, followed by"memory-U" briefly, then radio will reprogram it self.
10. If radio goes back to "safe" the code number is incorrect, or you mis-keyed it.
Note: entering the code incorrectly 10 times will render the radio useless.
After the first 3 tries you need to leave the radio on and the ignition on for increasingly long periods of time before it will let you try again. 7 safe need you to wait at least 30 mins, and more like 1 hour.

To obtain the radio code visit your local Vauxhall/Opal dealer. You will need proof of ownership of the vehicle (In the UK, the V5C) and photo Identification (driving license, passport etc). It is also recommended you take the vehicle in question with you, so that the radio serial number can be obtained (In case the radio has been replaced at any point). Should they charge more than £20 for this try another Vauxhall agent.
Black sticker in the drivers door jam near rear passenger door also has colour code
I'm pretty sure that they are individual depending on serial number on the radio itself? Hope this helps, SJT (sebbyfire)
I had a similar problem with my 1998 VECTRA CD. I did the paper clip test which gave me a code number for the cam shaft sensor' 18 pound from LMF Vauxhall . BEST OF LUCK MIKE
Firstly, get the right code! Then turn the ignition on, turn the radio on, and wait about half-to-one hour. Then you can try again.
I'm told you must go to a Vauxhall main dealer with the correct paperwork for the car you need the code for and they for a small fee will be able to look it up on their computer system. A sum of £10 was told to me, but that could be different at various garages
you have to ring up your local vauxhall dealer and see if they an get hold of one charge is about 25 pound and then u need a diagnostics kit to set the immobilizer to they the transponder in your key, if your having problems chack u have a transponder in your key or the pass codes will be useless.
