Radio Removal

[BMWer]

Just purchased a 98 328i with 34000 miles. There is no manual. My question is if I remove the radio to get the serial number, will the radio not work even though the battery stayed connected.

thats a good question.i'm assuming you'll need the code if you unplug it from the harness

You will need the code.
