Toyota Yaris Radio Code: Retrieve Your Stereo Unlock Code

The Toyota Yaris is a reliable and fuel-efficient supermini popular throughout the UK. After a battery change or power interruption, the original Toyota head unit can lock and request an unlock code. This guide shows you how to retrieve your Toyota Yaris radio code without a dealer visit.

Head Units in the Toyota Yaris

• Yaris I (1999–2006): Toyota/Panasonic radio, typically a four-digit code
• Yaris II (2005–2012): Toyota/Fujitsu Ten radio
• Yaris III / Cross (2012–present): Toyota Touch or Toyota Touch 2 — may use a PIN rather than a traditional code

Finding the Serial Number

To retrieve your Toyota Yaris radio code, you need the serial number from the head unit. Most Toyota radios do not display the serial number on screen, so you will typically need to remove the unit.

2. Locate the screws securing the radio (usually two on each side).
3. Slide the unit forward and locate the serial number label on the top or side.
4. Note the full serial number (format varies by model year).

Retrieving and Entering the Code

1. Go to RadioCodeLookup.com/brands/toyota.
2. Enter the serial number.
3. Receive your four-digit Toyota Yaris radio code.
4. Enter the code using the number buttons on the radio and confirm.
