There is a code to get from the radio, then a Technicians will call GM to get the actual unlock code. Only takes a few minutes.

Well thats a tough one, since GM is super-secretive about the "TheftLoc" System. My Recommendation is to take the Car to your Local Olds/Buick/Pontiac Dealership, and they have the Proper Procedure to Unlock your Stereo for You. This System requires 2 separate Code entries; Yours & Theirs (Imagine that, lol)
Last time that I had to do it, didn't Cost me anything when I already had My Code, the Next time where I didn't have the Code it Cost me $25...Hope this Helps Ya resolve your Issue. Good Luck

The radio is asking me a code I don't have the book to unlock the radio

IMPORTANT NOTE:
You must have the security anti-theft code for your VW radio from the car manufacturer, or from a VW dealer!


You can find the radio code at: http://www.radio-code.co.uk/

The sequence of VW radio programming is:
1. Push simultaneous "SCAN" and "RDS" keys until on the screen will appear "1000" displayed.
2. Release keys. No more push on "SCAN" and "RDS" keys because otherwise number "1000" will be considered as first safe code attempt.
For example: we have the security code "5079". Then:
3. By the no.# 1 key you will set up the first safe code digit. Push 5 times on the no.# 1 button. The "5" number will be setted.
4. By the no.# 2 key you will set up the second safe code digit. Push 10 times on the no.# 2 button. The "0" number will be setted.
5. By the no.# 3 key you will set up the third safe code digit. Push 7 times on the no.# 3 button. The "7" number will be setted.
6. By the no.# 4 key you will set up the four-th safe code digit. Push 9 times on the no.# 4 button. The "9" number will be setted.
7. Then push again simultaneous "SCAN" and "RDS" keys for confirm this safe code. On the screen will be displayed "SAFE" notice. Release keys! For few seconds a radio frequence will be displayed.

The radio is now ready for use!

CHANGED BATTERY IN 2000 OLDS ALERO. NOW RADIO SAYS LOC, CANNOT OPERATE IT NOW, HOW DO I RESET THE RADIO

your car is setup with an anti-thief system. You need the radio code that is inside your radio. Check your owner manual for the 4 digit number. If not in there then you need to take it into the dealer to unlock it.
