FCA / Chrysler TM9 Code Retrieval Methods
How To Retrieve A Panasonic TM9 Radio Code
The Chrysler / Dodge / Jeep / Ram Panasonic TM9 unlock code is tied to the radio serial number.
Most TM9 decoders use the numeric serial from the label or display, then calculate the 4-digit anti-theft code.
For this free DUBB45 calculator, enter the last 4 numeric digits
from a serial that starts with TM9.
Method 1
Read the radio label
Remove the radio and check the top, side, rear, or bottom sticker. Look for S/N or a serial beginning with TM9. This is the most reliable method.
Method 2
Try the button display method
With the ignition on and the radio powered up, try holding preset buttons 1 + 6 or 2 + 5. Some FCA radios will display serial information on-screen.
Method 3
Use the TM9 calculator
Once you have the TM9 serial, enter the last 4 numeric digits into the calculator above. The code is calculated instantly.
Method 4
Manual lookup
A dealer or radio-code service may ask for the radio serial number, part number, and sometimes the VIN. The serial number is still the key number for matching the radio to the correct unlock code.
Important: this calculator only supports Panasonic TM9 radios. If your serial starts with T00BE, T0MYD, TxxQN,
Alpine, Harman Becker, or another prefix, use the matching DUBB45 radio code calculator instead.
Free Factory Radio Unlock Code Online
When a Panasonic TM9 factory radio loses battery power, it may display a code screen before audio operation is restored.
This is normal anti-theft behavior. The radio code helps prevent stolen or swapped radios from being used without the correct unlock code.
This happens most often after a dead battery, battery replacement, jump start, radio removal, body control module work,
salvage radio installation, or vehicle repair that requires disconnecting power. The good news is that the unlock code
does not change. Once you retrieve the correct TM9 code, you can save it and use it again if the radio locks in the future.

Jeep radio code, Chrysler radio code, Ram radio code, factory radio unlock code, and radio code after battery replacement.
