Hi my radio has been displaying the wait message for about 6 months and cannot stand to be without it any longer.

After taking it to a garage yesterday they advised me to leave the key in and 'wait' message should begin to flash after 20-30 mins, and then to enter code 6334.

After two attempts each lasting 45 minutes, the message is still displayed and not flashing.

please help its driving me crazy!
 
Hi, Welcome to the FF.

Assuming you have the standard Fiat Punto Blaupunkt radio, the " WAIT " message will appear if someone has tried to enter the wrong code too many times. To clear it, you need to leave the radio and ignition switched on for 2 hours. The radio is ready to accept the correct code once the display shows " CODE " then "- - - - ". After the 2 hours, you may have to switch the radio off then on for the " CODE " and " - - - -" messages to appear.

If you need the correct code for the radio, post all the numbers from the back and sides of it on this thread:

https://www.fiatforum.com/i-c-e/85204-one-only-code-fiat-radio-thread-40.html

I may be able to get the code for you.
 
Disconnect the battery for few mins then reconnect. That will allow you to type the code in aswell won't it?

Not if it's the standard Fiat Punto Blaupunkt radio it won't.

There'd be no point in having the security code feature in radios if just disconnecting the power supply defeated it. To prevent people sequentially trying all the numbers from 1111 to 6666, after 3 incorrect attempts there's an increasing duration waiting time for each group of 3 wrong attempts.

i know it takes 2 hrs for my radio to let me punch the code in but my Fiat Blaupunkt displays "wait" but radio unit switches off after 20mins, even with ignition turned on, then I hit the on button to turn it back on & the "wait" display shows again, presumably restarting the wait clock back to zero???? advice please?? i have the code which i got from this site, its starting to get on my nerves
 
The Punto radio should have a MENU function on button 8. You can adjust the settings to prevent the 20 minute switch off. However, I don't know whether it works when he radio is in WAIT mode. If it doesn't, you will need to remove the radio and connect 2 external power supplies.

Hi, Welcome to the FF.

I can get the code for your radio.

Click the red link below. When you get to the donations page, use the button on the left, not the anonymous button on the right or I won't know you've donated.

Hi guys I havent been able to try the code yet as my radio says 'wait'. I've been told to leave my ignition running for 2 hours but I left it on for at least 3 yesterday and the 'code' message hasn't appeared. Can anyone help?
 
Hi please ignore last message. I have no input the code 3633 and it has returned the message 'CANCHECK'.

Is anyone able to help?
 
Hi mate sorry the cd player came out of my friends punto and I put it into mine. Does that mean the cd player wont work then?

Thanks
