I'm not sure about that year, but on older cars there was a sticker on
the left side of the glove box with the radio code on it. If it's not
there, call Hyundai Customer Service and ask them where you can find the
code. It sounds like you have an unscrupulous dealer; a good one would
simply tell you where to find the code over the phone.

According to the dealer they have to look it up on the computer system
and is not something they do for free.
Older models had a sticker somewhere in the car. I don't think a 99
does.

So here's the story:
Left the dash lights on for 10.5 hours and the car wouldn't start.
Tried to boost it and according to Canadian Tire someone must have
reversed a cable and blew the alternator fuse. Now the radio won't
work but it doesn't say CODE or anything on the display. Checked the
two fuses that say "Audio" and they seem fine. There's a fuse missing
for "TCU ECT" but I don't know if that's related.
Any ideas?

You had it right from the start; you need to enter the code to enable
the radio. Did you check for a code sticker or call Hyundai (corporate)
as I suggested? It's rather pointless to ask a question then ignore the
answer.

If there's a fuse missing, it's because there's nothing connected there
and you don't need it.

I will call Hyundai customer service, however, everything I have read
about this type of situation says that if your radio is looking for a
code, it would say "CODE" on the display. Mine is blank. I have also
read that if you hold down the #4 when turning it on, there would be a
bunch of lines displayed, then you would go here :
http://www.hyundaidealer.com/decode/, and get the code. Mine does
nothing.
Isn't it possible that the fuse on the radio blew?
The dealer I called said to disconnect the battery for 30 minutes. What
would that do??
