This has been tried!

It does not work. Electricity was off for 30 minutes, and the radio did NOT ask for the radio code.

Hi,

take of the ground wire from the battery for about two minutes, then put it back on. This should do a reset not only to the radio, but to the whole CAN-Bus system as well.
