Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and this is my first post.
Somebody, somewhere MUST know what "95 SAFE" means on a '51 plate Vectra's display. Had to change the battery and now the CDR 500 doesn't work. When you power on, the display indicates "SAFE", so I followed the procedure (from a downloaded user manual) to enter the code. When I press the AS button, the word "Safe" on the display is preceded by the number 95 and there is no 'beep' nor any 'dashes' where the code might be entered. Tried leaving the unit powered up for 1 hour - with "95 SAFE" on the display - but still no joy. Does this mean the unit is now locked??
When I tried Googling "CDR 500 95 SAFE", there were many hits in Polish, but only 1 in English (on this forum) with no solution, apart from a recommendation to leave the unit powered on overnight using a spare battery. According to the manual, the word "Safe" can only be preceded by the numbers 10 through (presumably) 0 - if someone has used up all 10 tries at the correct code. However, the user manual doesn't say what is displayed if the unit is locked. I thought it would be something like "LCKD" - does anyone know??
It's all very frustrating so any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
