[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 2978189, member: 570956"] I just got done installing a substage in my friend's 3rd gen tiburon ('06 I believe) and after disconnecting the battery and hooking it back up the stereo is acting very strange. It turns on, accepts and ejects CDs, and has limited functionality. You can not read the screen, it's just gibberish, you can't control the volume, but it will switch between CD and radio mode and play both.... After a bit of googling I seem to have confirmed my suspicion that disconnecting the battery caused the unit to go into some theft lock mode. I read somewhere that there is a code you have to type in using the buttons on the stereo, and that it is located in the car's manual or can be had from a dealer. Anyway...I'm at work, I don't have access to the car until tomorrow, and I'm not sure if that is true since only one website I saw listed that response to the question. So if anybody on here knows and can either confirm that to be true, or give me the correct way to make it work again, that would be very much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
