Wow this was from 2 yrs ago, so glad I didn’t have to call my son again. Big thanks from this 73 yr old great grandmother.

This feature saved a total of 3 car stereos from being stolen. Totally worth it

did exactly as you suggested and got my radio running again..thank you!

To summarize, after getting the reset code from honda, I got an error at first because the car was on and running, BUT it needs to be in accessory position and then it will accept the code. Thanks for this video! Helped a lot!

Why don't you deal with reality the way it presents itself to you? It is a fact that people steal all sorts of shit, no matter what. In the mid 90s, I had my ca 10 year old Golf broken into and they ripped a cheap after-market radio/tape unit out... it happens. Thieves are not some sort of connoisseurs with refined taste, you know.

Wow... you must have a lot of internal dialogue going on in your head :) I can tell that because you call me a Honda apologist, that is very funny :) I have never said anything pro Honda in my long life (no hate, just solid disinterest), and I would never buy one... it is very unlikely that I will buy any Japanese car at all, because it so happens that we have a strong car industry here ourselves, and so it is easy for me to be 'patriotic' when it comes to buying cars... not sure what car Honda could offer me, because ideally, my next one will be an S500, pre-owned, but better than any Honda new or old can ever be as far as I'm concerned. Honda apologist :) Nice one, my dude.

You’re a legend thank you for the video it works

Many thanks for the post. I found radio SN using combination shown. Later i found a code on sticker on side of glove compartment

This works man! Thanks

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Thank you. Really helpful. I called a Honda dealership and they gave me the 6-digit code right away when I gave them the 8-digit serial number.

Hey thanks for this vid. I'm going to go try this now. I have a 2005 I got brand new. Old but great car civics are. I had the c number written down from yrs of having to do this procedure. I lost the paper, and forgot what to do. Thx again. Such a pain driving around (for 6 months) without a radio.

Check your glove box for a sticker with the code. My 2009 CRV has one on the side of the box and my 2015 Civic has the code on the back of the glove box. You may have to squeeze the sides of the glove box to drop it down to find the sticker.

GREAT THANKS BRO. GOT MY CODE. SO HAPPY. MY STEREO HAS BEEN LOCKED FOR MORE THAN A YEAR

Cory Z np, thanks for commenting. cheers

This may be the reason why your code didnt work initially: If you watch the video, you'll initially see a small "1" next to the word "COdE" and that number changes each time you press a digit. So there was already a digit (or several) entered, and I think the radio stores them even with the key off. If you would have simply started the correct code over after it had beeped at you, I think it would have worked correctly without having to reset by disconnecting the battery again.

Worked great!!!!

Thanks dude!

Thanks! I have an ‘07 CRV so it’s a bit different but at least I now have the code!

Yes!! I just did it ✨✨💜 blessings

👍 thanks for the information 🎉

Thanks for the tips! BTW, the reason the code entry didn't work the first few times is that the beep sound happens at the end of entering 5 digits. It means right after the beep sound you have to start entering the code from the first digit otherwise it would be out of sync.

Thank you man been trying to find a solution since I changed my battery , thank you , I worked

I have a Acura TSX 06 w/ navigation and don’t have the radio code. I got the code from finding the serial number on the cd changer in the trunk. I put that serial number in the Acura website and got 2 rolls of numbers and assume one was for the navigation and the other for the radio. I also manage to call a dealership that checked over the phone and have me the same codes, but later learned the codes I got was only for the navigation. So, I had to wait 2 months until I could save money to fix my alternator, so I waited until last week to try those codes. The navigation started when I put the first 5 numbers. Then I tried with the radio and I couldn’t figure out how to put the b letter that was in the place of the last number (5th.). I tried about 3-4 times and it didn’t work and I put 1-6 in place of the letter b and now locked out. I can’t even do the press button 1 and 6 and the power button and locked out from putting in the code. I called the Acura support number and got a person and they told me that I still needed the radio code and different from the navigation code. I wasn’t in the car and tried the press 1 and 6 and radio power button to get the serial number and get the code. Well, since it didn’t work, I’m gonna call them back and get them to walk me through it. I also think I might need to disconnect the battery and reconnect to see if it’ll let me get the code and let me put in the code. The Acura support did mention that if I was locked out from putting the code, i need to wait something like an hour or 24 hours, but that didn’t work the next day. This is a pain in the butt and all this to get a radio code? And these pro Acura Honda folks are no real help. They should get more training and narrow down the possibilities. Meaning the first dealership person should of told me that you only have the navigation code and still need the radio code. Bc she didn’t, it cost me a lot of frustration and waste of time.

I tried this method for my 2005 Pilot. It did not work. However, I found the radio code in the glove box and it worked.

My radio code has a 9 in it. How do I do that when the buttons only go to 6?

thank you

Hey I have my radio code and it alway work when my radio get error , but this time it won't . Am try to many time do you why ?

key in ignition and turn it to what position ? exisister position ?

Thank you thank you thank you thank you

If you open your glove box and check the side of it when open, it may have your radio code printed on a strip that's "taped" onto the side of the glove box. enter those numbers and save the hassle of figuring out your serial number and contacting the dealership. I have a 2003 Honda Accord Ex and it saved me some time after swapping out my battery.

I have a 03 civic that I just bought do i need to go to dealer ship or is there a other way to get the code
