Others know these radios well enough to tell you exactly, but I do know that on at least some Clarions in Saabs, if you keep trying when it won't take the code, there's a long cooling off period before it lets you try again. Or else a combo of keys to push to override that.
Maybe, trying it without the CD in triggered that kind of a lockdown of things. It's meant to keep a thief from just trying every code out there and maybe getting lucky and hitting the right one.
