Did you read the procedure to have it display on the radio in the Lost Radio Code FAQ?

He had the procedure for the 220 and it made no sense for the 210. We continued the work and disconnected the power knowing we could get to the decal on the side of the radio but as you can see a couple digits are hard to read.

If you click on the photo it increases size making it easier to view.

I am guessing the number is W5024388 or W5024888.

From the Lost Radio Code FAQ...

"CR-210:

Press tone, then 8 and 0 simultaneously. "Becker" appears. Press station up arrow on right. "PR-VERS" appears. Press one of numbered buttons below display, directly below the LCD arrowheads (try a few). The model number will appear. Press station up arrow on right. "SERIAL N" will appear. Press the numbered button again. The serial number will appear.

Or, if the radio is out of the car the then the serial number is on the label."

Had a dead battery in my used 2001 Boxter S with a Becker cdr 220 stereo. Can't find the code written anywhere in the car or on the paperwork.

Found this blog and am crossing my fingers for help retrieving the code.

Model # 4462

Serial # 15061588

Will be forever thankful for any help!

Thank you.

So this works after the power was disconnected... Hmm... So we got W5024888.
