Becker CR-220 radio code, low washer fluid light
Help! While repairing leaking windshield washer reservoir (leaking pump) in my 2000 996 Cabriolet, I disconnected the battery, and now my CR-220 (Becker) radio thinks it was stolen. I pressed TP and recovered Serial No. Y5021121. Can anyone suggest the security code necessary to bring it back to life? Also, the low windshield washer light that tipped me off to the leak refuses to extinguish when I refilled the reservoir with NAPA "good to 20 below" blue fluid. Suggestions (other than fashioning a dime-sized piece of electric tape to put over the light)? John

For radio code https://www.renntech.org/topic/54183...comment-309461
For low washer fluid light...no idea. Did you plug the sensor back in correctly?
Also check your owners manual for a hand written 4 digit code, and sometimes it is written on the options sticker in the frunk.

DBJoe996: Thanks for the quick reply. Yes I looked everywhere for the code, was not with the manual or written elsewhere. Yes, I disconnected and reconnected the sender plug at least four times during the suggested “smoke test” before reinstalling the reservoir (which had a leaky headlight washer pump), the removal and reinstall of which bordered on torture.
