RE: RADIO RESET

["Ron Buchalski" <rbuchals@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The alternative to driving and waiting an hour for the "I'm Stolen" mode to 
clear is to simply remove power from the radio.  The easiest way is to pull 
it from the dash, disconnect all wire harnesses, and reconnect them.  There 
may be a separate wire connector for the wire which has power "always on" 
(to maintain memory) that you can remove without disconnecting the big 
harness.

The disadvantage is that you'll lose your radio presets.
