Today I found out about the engineering mode that you access in the infotainment system.

While I can get to the login screen using the two knobs and the 7,3,1 volume method I have not been able to enter engineering mode regardless of the code I use. I don’t even get an incorrect password message the login just disappears.

I have tried :-
The time
2400
1111
2998
2900
0428
0652
2702
2801
1200
0804
1204
1358
4763
0716
4259
6172
5173
3802
1900
0000
1221
The time followed by the last 4 digits of the software version

Nothing seems to work.

I would appreciate any advice?

From what I know the password is just the current time being displayed in 24hr display format.
So in your last image it would have been 1613
Hope that helps

Thanks for the reply buff. Yes, I gave it a try but it didn’t work. Some people get an incorrect password message but I just get the login disappearing.

Does this work?

Thanks for the link. I tried using the steering wheel controls rather than the volume knob but unfortunately no luck.

As I mentioned in your other topic, the information here relates to Australian units, Europe and other countries will use a different unit with different software.
