AnswerHi Shelley,
"Dolby" is a technology not a make, below is an address for the Dolby site relative to car radios that might help ID the set as well as the serial number on the set, these start with M, L or C.
These are just a few "Ford" sets
Ford 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2014, 2015
Ford 3000 Traffic, 4000 Traffic
Ford 4000RDS, 5000NE, 5000RDS, 6000RDS, Ford 6006E, 7000RDS
Entering the code on a "Ford " radio should be done only once you have the correct radio model and code but below is a copy of the instructions I found.
Radio Code Entry
Late Four Digit Ford Radio Codes (no SELECT button)
ie. Ford 3000 Traffic, 4000RDS, 5000RDS, 6000RDS, 6006E, etc
Switch the radio on and the word CODE should appear in the display
Repeatedly press button 1 until the correct first digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 2 until the correct second digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 3 until the correct third digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 4 until the correct fourth digit of the code is displayed.
Once the code has been correctly selected on the radio's display, press button 5 to enter.
If "LOCK 10" is shown on the display, please contact us for guidance. If the display shows "LOCK 13" code entry will not be possible, and the unit will need to be electronically decoded by a car radio servicing specialist.
Early Four Digit Ford Radio Codes (units with SELECT button)
ie. Ford 2005, 2006, 2015, etc
Switch the radio on and the word CODE should appear in the display.
If CODE does not appear immediately, press the SELECT button momentarily, and CODE should then appear on the display.
Repeatedly press button 1 until the correct first digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 2 until the correct second digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 3 until the correct third digit of the code is displayed.
Repeatedly press button 4 until the correct fourth digit of the code is displayed.
Once the code has been correctly selected on the radio's display, press the "SELECT" button to enter.
Three Digit Ford Radio Codes
ie. Ford 2000, 2001, 2005, 2007, etc
Switch the radio on and the word CODE followed by three dashes should appear in the display. These three dashes should be flashing.
Enter the three digit code by repeatedly pressing station presets 1-3 until each digit is correctly displayed, followed by preset 4 to accept the code. The unit should then function normally.
If, after switching the radio on, the three dashes do not flash, then 3 or more incorrect code entries have been attempted.
If a number 10 appears in the display, then ten incorrect codes have been tried and the unit will need to be decoded by a car radio servicing specialist.
