Default Radio won't accept Code

Now that I've got my new 90 Conv running and driving I'd like music.
Accept the radio won't take the code. I have the Radio manual and the code.
After 3 attempts it says to leave it on for an hour before attempting to insert code again.
Well I keep trying the same 5 digit code, and it beeps the rejection every time.
The car sat with no power for 3 years, would that affect it?
What to do now?

Maybe the code got erased during long poweroff. Try all zeros. Just my 2¢.

Try entering the code slower. See here: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...t-code-200938/
