It is really a shame that Jeep does not provide a simple step by step solution to the radio-code problem that affects people all over the world.
Not good!!

If you have not done so, disconnect the battery + lead for 5 mins. The indicator lights may flash with a bleep noise. Connect the lead back; this may to reset the unit.

Our one won't change to "code" despite having many hours of being on.
Any other suggestions?

The engineer is right, you have to wait two hours, when 'Wait" will change to "code". then enter the four digit code and the radio is back!
