7 ERROR CODE ON MY PEUGEOT 106 CAR STEREO?

I have a peugeot 106 independence . The blooming radio is driving me MAD !!! I made up some codes at first and kept on getting errors. I have now managed to get the code for the stereo and typically the 7 ERROR is still showing after 2 weeks after putting in a wrong code. Do you think that the stero is faulty or do i have to wait until it dissapears.!!! it reads 7ERROR - THE STEREO IS A PHILLIPS RADIO. I just want some music in my ears!!! Not STRESS!!! ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. Thanks

Philips Audio, In-Car Audio Error Code Stereo

Car radios are so cheap now so why have this ridiculous code system; it's a nightmare! I'd rather have the radio pinched and get another without a code system than have this agro. On my Peugeot 306 I punched in 7 possible codes like 1111, 2222, 1234, etc but then the 7 Error display came up and the radio doesn't accept any more trials. As suggested, I'm leaving the radio on now and will see in a few hours if it has reset as has been suggeated. I have worked out a code using the last 4 digits of the serial number and hope that this advice will get things back to normal.

If you now have the correct code then start the procedure to enter the code....(ON button plus another?...**see below) ...then leave the radio switched ON ....UNDISTURBED ...for as long as it takes to reset itself automatically.(with 7 ERROR it should be around a couple of hours)

Then enter your code as normal.
