Having trouble with Bluetooth/hands free someone reset/changed the pin. I was wondering how to reset the pin so I can connect my phones.

Hi BigKat,

This radio code is stored in the vehicle package and possibly the selling dealer file. Unfortunately, there is no way for us to get that code.

The only way I have heard to "bypass" it is if you disconnect the battery for five minutes and then reconnect. In most cases, this will reset the radio and it may be unlocked for you as long as it is not set up to require the PIN every time you try to pair a new phone. If this is the case, you may need to see a dealer.

I included a service bulletin that walks through just basic pairing issue as well just in case you need it. Thanks
