HF link requires 4 digit code

Has anyone encountered the issue where they pressed the HF link button and the system is asking for a 4 digit unlock code? I just purchased it off the dealer CPO and of course they neglected to tell me this.

When you set up the HFL you can choose to require a passcode in order to use it. The previous owner probably set it up that way. The dealer can reset everything for you. They should've done that when the car was taken in and prepped as a CPO sale.

You may try "0000" before going back to the dealer because that is typically (though not on the car) the default code for bluetooth devices. The previous owner may have used it so it was easy to remember. That said, Hawk's is 100% right.

Thanks guys. Tried it but didn't work. My power outlet doesn't seem to work either so I might as well make the trip to the dealer. Love the car tho.

Check your cell phone blue tooth code. Sometimes it is 1234.
