Try leaving it disconnected for a good few days ... I have also heard an "Auld Wife's Tale" that putting it in your freezer will help it "lose" the coded feature, but I have my doubts about that.

It might help if you mention the kind of radio etc.

I had a Partner van and Peugeot were very helpful when I had problems getting the code for the radio ... They might be able to advise you over the phone. Other than that, I'm sorry, I can't offer anything else.

Try Googling the problem, you might find the solution on a forum somewhere.
 
Also found this:

Waiting time depends on how many times an incorrect code has been tried, and could be up to 24 hours as it the table below.

The radio and ignition needs to be left on continuously for the waiting time. If you switch either off too soon, the waiting time starts again.

If its the radio that was fitted in factory the Peugeot supplying dealer usually has the code, But if they have to go to Peugeot for it there's usually a charge which they have to pay which they'll pass on to you no doubt

Radios are so cheap on ebay now so just buy a new one for around £15 :wave::wave::wave:
 
If you remove the radio you should find a sticker with the code at the rear of the radio
