I bought Acura TSX ’04, but it was without owner’s manual, so I can’t pass
CD player Code. Maybe someone can help me how to solve this problem.
Thank you in advance.

 

You'll have to go thru the dealership to get the security code. They will need your VIN # and the serial # off the deck.

 

Thank you for explanation.
But problem is that we don't have Acura dealer in Lithuania, only Honda dealer, they don't have such information.
I have one more question, how many digits have security code and how to enter them?

 

Lithuania? Wow. Azine has a long reach. How did you get a TSX in Lithuania?

 

I bought this car in USA auction broken and repaired in Lithuania, because I'm fanatic of Honda cars, but Acura have more advanteges.

 

Oh, I see... Well, if you don't mind the long distance charge, you can CALL Acura to get the security code. You may have to provide them with more information (in addition to your VIN # and serial #), but they should still be able to help you over the phone. Here are some numbers I found off the Acura website:

BY PHONE
Monday through Friday, 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM Pacific Standard time at the toll-free number (800) 382-2238

BY FAX

Speaking of the radio code... if I were to disconnect the battery, I'd lock my radio out.

Is there a way to RETRIEVE the code while the radio is unlocked, so that I can write it down for when I do lock it by removing the battery, etc...??

I'm thinking there's some sequence of buttons to do this while the radio is unlocked, and it'd display the code... but maybe its wishful thinking.

 

Okay... I've stated this little trick to folks before... here is how to locate the radio code...


Open Glove Box
Look up inside
Find white tag.



Now you know why service folks don't need your radio code card.

Since this is now public knowledge, let's hope there isn't a rash of radio thefts.

For those that had their radios replaced due to the "lights out" issue, you should've received 2 stickers, unless the service guy already paste the new one up there.

 

Sorry but that's not entirely true. Yes, many dealers stick one of the code stickers in the glovebox, but that is not what they're "supposed" to do. There are three Navi/Audio stickers that come in the packet with a new car off the truck. Two have the radio/navi codes printed on them, one has only the serial numbers for the audio/navi units on it. One of the stickers with the code goes on the card the customer receives, the other is supposed to go on the veh paperwork. The one that is supposed to be stuck in the glovebox has only the Serial numbers on it. This allows the codes to be retrieved with the Honda/Acura iN network without having to pull the Audio or Navi unit out of the veh to find the serial number.

So although your car may have the code on a sticker in the glovebox, not all do.

 

Correct, not all TSX's have that white sticker around the glove box area. I looked at a few to see, I guess the one's that got it are lucky to a certain extent

 

My radio code stickers are still inside the owner's manual. Many dealers put it in the glove box but not always.

 

Mine's not in the glove box, but in the Manual. Same damn place anyway?

 

Also check the trunk. Upper left side area. Some dealers are known to put the sticker there.

 

Thank you for help, I found code in glove box as you suggested.

Thank for all in this forum who gave advices.
Have a good ride with Acura TSX !!!
