Mitsubishi: cant figure out code for my eclipse, digit code, daisy

Question
Hello,

I recently purchased a used car and my dad (in trying to be helpful) unplugged something and now the radio isn't working.  It is asking for a code.  What should I do? or what should I have my dad do?

Answer
Hi Daisy,

I really like your name. You will need to remove the radio and get the ID number off the back. Call the dealer and they will give you an 800 number to get the 5 digit code. That is an anti-theft device built into the radio. When you disconnect the battery the computer thinks you ripped it out of the dash! Sometimes the original owner's manual will have it written inside. Look for a 5 digit code.
