Thank you! You saved me $110 dollars. No joke. I was able to get the serial number and from there, I called the dealership and they gave me the 4 digit code for free. Thank you!!

Man, thank you so much. We had alternator trouble, and had to replace it with the battery, and when we turned the tlx back on, the radio and navigation required 2 different codes! The dealer wanted 200 bucks just to get the serial number that I just didn't have. Thank you!

Work perfect in my 2008 Acura TL type s..thank you for your video!

I don't know how to thank you. You've just saved me a lot of headache. THANK YOU SO MUCH! It worked for my 2008 Acura MDX. I got the serial number after following your instructions. The Diagnostic screen popped up after a few seconds. I had to go through several different options to find the serial. I never comment on youtube videos, but I had to make an exception today. You are the best George

Thanks for this info. Just got oil change and new battery for the car. Tried to hear some tunes then this. The 1 & 6 with the power button trick worked for Acura RDX W/ nav system

Saved me a trip to the dealer thanks so very much🙏 !!!!!!!!! I have an Acura MDX. He's right, hold those buttons down, then go to Navi ECU, your serial number will pop up on the screen.

George, do you know how to obtain the SERIAL NUMBER for a 2000 TL 3.2 Vehicle? I tried to retrieve it the way you suggested in the video, but I couldn't get the info (serial number). Back in 2000 the electronic (display) panel was quite different than the models of today (March 2019). When I purchased my vehicle from the dealership (back in 2000) I was given only ONE code on a sticker (it turns out this 5 digit code is "only" for the RADIO). It works, but several years ago I learned that I was supposed to have received a 4 digit code & Serial Number for my vehicle's Navigation System. However, I didn't receive a "separate" 4 digit code or serial number at the time of purchase for the Navigation System. I've searched through ALL my ORIGINAL paperwork and there isn't any information pertaining to the NAVIGATION (4 digit code or Serial Number). It may be a possibility that the dealer forgot to "include" the pertinent info card with my paperwork that day. I recall him being in a rush to close the deal because it was a banner year for Acura Sales in '2000 I.e. people were waiting to get their hands on the Acura TL (at that particular dealership). Since my battery didn't need replacing for about 3 yrs.-4yrs. (The Navigation code/Serial code NEVER came up) and since the 5-digit code that I received was working...it NEVER entered my mind that I would require another code to get the ve Navigation to work! OH, THE RUB! I took my vehicle to an Acura dealer for its routine maintenance check-up (according to the maintenance schedule in the owner's manual), but to my dismay, I learned that I would need another CODE to get the NAVIGATION to turn back on. I also learned that each year I would have to pay to get an "update" for the Navigation DVD! And the Navigation DVD is expensive...I believe Acura quoted me a "discounted" price of $199.00 (something like that). OUCH!!! So, I started using my portable GPS in the car, along with my mobile phone. It was FREE to use these items and it helped me stay within my household budget (there isn't a fee to "update" every year with these with portable GPS and mobile phone apps). :-D GETTING BACK TO THE POINT: When the Acura Service Tech. asked me for the CODE (I told him I never received the 4 digit code...only a five digit code. So, then he asked for the SERIAL NUMBER, which would allow him to retrieve my code)...I politely gave him my VIN. Number. He immediately let me know that these numbers were NOT the SAME thing! I explained to him that I never received a "serial number or code" for the Navigation System...and that I only received "ONE" five digit code (I learned that the five digit code was for the RADIO only). WHAT? I was so confused! :-O Then he continued to quote me outrageous prices to retrieve the serial number for my navigation system. The price was so expensive that I left the dealership feeling like I had been HAD! I.e. Until you offered advice on how to get the serial number in your KZread TUTORIAL! I have owned this newly purchased vehicle since 2000...it is 19 yrs. young...it has about 68,000 miles on it (that reflects how often I drive). My friends call me a SUNDAY driver! lol The mileage is sort of low for 19 years because most of the time I go places with m husband in his vehicle; therefore, I didn't NEED to use the Acura a lot. PLUS, sometimes, I use public transportation, as well. Q: If you can tell me "HOW" to retrieve the code for "2000" Acura TL 3.2 I sure would appreciate it. I await your reply!

I have an Acura 2007 I changed the battery after that my radio doesn't work I pushed 1 n 6 and gives me code #but I has a 7 on the code how I can put that number in

Hello 👋 I’ve been having issues with my mdx 2004 Acura. The other day while I was driving, it died completely. Everything locked out, I couldn’t unlocked doors nothing. It didn’t start back on for about 10 minutes that felt so long. Any ideas on what could it be causing these problems?

How does this explain how to obtain the nav serial number? You held the buttons down like you said and your car didn't do anything

Thanks for offering this help, George, but I just got a used 2015 RDX. There is no MENU button to get the nav serial #, and pushing 1 and 6 and PWR doesn't do anything when I try to get the radio serial #. Do your tricks not apply to recent models?

Did you know your codes are printed on the inside of the glove compartment when you open the glove box?

For my radio code, I have 4 numbers and a letter b. The scroll only lets you put 1 thru 6, so how do you put the letter b? Now I’m locked out bc since it’s only 6 numbers, I tried each number for the last number. The navigation was easy and I got that working. I’m planning to unplug the battery for 5 mins. to see if it’ll unlock. But I still have the letter b to figure out. I also tried not putting in the b and that didn’t work either. This is a pain in the butt and you should be able to change whatever, if you have the key.
