- 1Turn the unit on.
- 2Press and hold the map button (“current location”).
- 3Still holding it, switch the car’s parking lights on and off 3 or 4 times until a new screen appears.
- 4Press the one button lit up on that screen. The 16-character ERC is displayed.
Do not take this one out — it will not help. The sticker on the case carries a serial number, but it is not the ERC and it will not unlock the unit. The ERC only ever appears on screen.

Frequently asked questions
ERC (Electron Radios Code): The 16-character code shown on your locked radio display. This is what you enter into our lookup.
Unlock Code: The actual PIN you enter into your radio to unlock it. Typically a 4-digit number (e.g. 1234). We provide this after you pay.
You use the ERC to get the unlock code. Then you use the unlock code to unlock your radio.
Yes, but it's slow. Toyota dealers can provide codes if you prove ownership with your V5C and photo ID. However:
- It usually takes several working days
- You must visit the dealership in person
- Some dealers charge a fee
Our £4.99 service is instant, online, 24/7.
You can type or copy-paste your ERC into our lookup. We recommend copy-pasting if possible to avoid transcription errors. A single wrong character will result in an incorrect lookup.
If you must type it manually, double-check every character, especially similar ones (0 vs O, 1 vs I, etc.).
We offer a 100% money back guarantee. If the unlock code we provide doesn't work, contact us immediately and we'll refund you in full, no questions asked.
Before entering the code, make sure you have the correct ERC from your radio's display.
Yes. We do not store your ERC, vehicle details, or personal information beyond what's needed to process your order. We use Stripe for payment. We never see your card details.
We do not sell or share any of your data.
