Frimley111R Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Anyone know what the default password is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21gg Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 There is a way you can run a file on sd to find it but try 1111 from memory. Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frimley111R Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Its actually a password it seems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21gg Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Over the next couple of days I will dig the program out or find the link. It puts the stereo into a 'service' mode and you can find the password. Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frimley111R Posted January 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Thanks, I'll try that. Can't believe this is such a complete PITA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frimley111R Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Firstly, thanks to Gav for all the help in hacking the unit to find the pw. Unfortunately iut is 00000 and the unit won't accept it!!! Grrr Update: YES!!! Works now. No idea why though. I put 5 zeros in until it locked me out. Went back a few mins later and put in 4 zeros, then 6 zeros and then 5 again and it suddenly worked!!!

Snoopy1969 Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 Dear all, got a new battery today (first new one after 8 years) pioneer avic bt930 (standard one my 2012) says “enter password“ 00000 didn’t worked , german manual of this internet says 5-16 digits and the password check only appears if you set the system on „password“ before and typed it 2 times before it works..... I am pretty sure that I never set the password and that this „enter password“ never appeared when the battery was disconneted within the annual service etc. any ideas welcom 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arregueti Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 Hi Willi, I have the same head unit and never had that issue (not even when the car was put in pieces to repair the gearbox). The paper manual and quick start guide that I have don’t say anything either. I found the following on the extended English manual pdf file that I have (see attached pictures). I hope this helps. I can send you the pdf file if you send me your e-mail address through pm. Or maybe try 11111? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1969 Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 @Arregueti Dear Jorge; many thanks; the pdf contains the same as the german version I found online (on basis of that manual I am absolutely sure that I never set a password......) 11111 doesn’t worked either ——have also send a message to Lotus, lets see what they are saying about that issue..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1969 Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 update on this topic: Lotus customer service just didn´t response within 8 days...(just the auto reply)..........disappointing...... Lotus service centre will put the pioneer out for resetting now as all variants of typing the usual password (as mentioned above) or hints from the pioneer manual didn´t work...........very strange as this error did not appear within the last 8 years when the Lotus service centre was working on the car / battery....

21gg Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 I cant remember the exact proceedure as its was years ago i did it, but there is a program/file you can load onto the sd card and identify the password. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1969 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 @21gg many thanks for the hint, the Lotus service centre will sent to a HiFi-specialist in order to reset it (or the specialist will send it then to pioneer germany itself......), will ask afterwards if they did it that way....

AK70 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 The password can only be entered when the handbrake is applied... try 1111_ or 2222_ , the _ is a space. Worked with mine ;-) 1 Quote For the few who know the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1969 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 So Evora is back.....Pioneer Unit was sent to Pioneer Germany, it seems that the system has "hung up" like your typical desktop ;-)........ They said that they put it back to "base condition".....but the iphone connection remained, no need to engage the mobile again, v e r y suspicious the whole thing.... In the end the whole matter was managed by Lotus service Schuttenbach in a pleasant way! (very happy to have the Evora back, missed her a lot, even after 8 years the drive is a special one!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
