You will need to take it to your local dealer for them to pull code and call Delco for the unlock code,This usually takes about 10-15minutes.Make sure they give you the unlock code so you could use it for that radio if you lose power to it .

Unlock code for delco radio 2002 Chevy silverado

In order to get the code you need to go to a Chevy dealer with the VIN of the car it came in, the number from the radio and proof of ownership. The have a "dealers only" number to call the radio manufacturer to get the codes. I hope this helps, take care. If you have more questions or just want to say Hi! Use testimonial to comment. Thanks.

Whats a good spark for a 2004 chevy silverado 4.8 with 115500 miles

I am guessing you meant spark plug. Your truck calls for an Iridium plug. I would strongly recommend replacing them with the original equipment which is an AC Delco 41-110. They are available at most auto parts stores and run about $6.99 ea. If you're replacing the distributor cap, try to use one with brass contacts as they have far less problems with the spark arcing through the cap.

2004 chevy truck factory radio needs to be cleaned on the inside

Read the car manual, in the page were it shows the dashboard fuse panel find the radio fuse pull it out and put it back in with the fuse tool. This resets your radio, it did the trick for me with.
Just make sure if you disable the radio security lock if it enabled before you pull the fuse. It may lock you out, all the information is in the manual.
Good luck and hope this helps.

Lock out code

I've heard of people using Delco Lock Codes (http://www.delcolockcodes.com) to get their radios unlocked. They seems like a legit site from what I've read. Good luck!!
