Answer 1

Does your radio say safe, then after a few seconds the numbers come up 0000 or 0001?

Or did it do that before you tried to enter the code?

Answer 2

My friend had this same problem in his BMW. I know it probably is not the same deck, but if you leave the radio on for over an hour, say on a long trip, the code can be put in.  It works on the principle that if somebody tries to steal your stereo, more often than not they are not going to go through the trouble of hooking it up and leaving it on for an hour to let the code input reset.  It may be a shot in the dark, but I hope it works.
