Phillips R660

Hi David,

I purchased (from eBay) a second hand R660 to fit into my Rover Mini (for originality). It was cheap and without code which I thought would be a simple on line decode.
Having chosen Kevin at MMSA to do the decode, it transpires that the unit serial number is above the list of numbers on the database for coding. The serial number is RG349FY1173250. He suggested I contact you as you maybe able to decode it? I note you are in Paignton so not too far from me in North Devon. I have powered the unit up but obviously without a code can’t guarantee the unit is 100%. The panel illuminates except for the LCD display although it can still be read (I assume a faulty neon). The tape deck does actually work mechanically. My plan was to convert to bluetooth using one of the proprietary Bluetooth circuit boards but if it is too dear to decode I may just bin it….appreciate your advice as to cost etc to decode.
Regards
Paul

Apologies for delayed reply due to Annual Holiday. If your Rover R660 serial number is not in the database, then do not worry s we can certainly help by decoding it the old fashioned way of plugging it into our machine here at our workshop.
