look in your paperwork with your owner's manual or go to the acura ownerlink website (www.ahm-ownerlink.com). Sign up with your vin and it will tell you your radio code.

NO... It won't tell you, you have to enter it. You should have gotten a little plastic card with your owner's manual binder. The card looks like a credit card. It has a 4 or 5 digit numeric code on it. You enter the code through the station preset numbers. When you enter it correctly, the radio will power up.

You'll have to get it from the dealer

But...if you already have it or pay $$$$$ to get it from the dealer, sign-up with ownerlink and enter it there, that way you won't have to worry about it again

Oh, the code is based on the unit's serial number. The dealer will extract the radio and get the code. Then they can contact Acura for the code card. This is to prevent stereo theft. The VIN is readily visible, hense making it a poor security measure. Thus, Acura came up with the card based on the serial number of the radio. And yeah, I hated my stock deck and bought one with MP3 and all that... But I kept the old one to put back in if I ever decide to sell her or she is wrecked and I want to keep my JVC deck. I love that thing.



You can kinda see the remote.

look on the side of your glove box, inside the ash tray, or in the fuse box. those are the places it may be found if i remember correctly. if they are not then correct me.

ohh yea and btw use the search button it's been covered, i had ur same problem.

yeah you can try that and check in the owners manual for a card or something. if you cant find it anywhere, you'll need the serial number of your radio. then just go to honda/acura and ask for it. they did everything for me, for free. just because they unplugged my battery. so im not sure if they'll charge you or not

just take the radio out and get the serial number thats on that back and go to Acura with the number and they'll give you the code in like 5 min..
