Only a shop with a dealer quality scanner can unlock the radio, very few shops can afford that equipment. So your kinda stuck with the dealership.

You need the security code. When the radio loses power for any reason it automatically locks unless the feature is turned off before you disconnect power for the radio. You can try a local stereo shop but unfortunately you're probably going back to the Dealer! Jim
