i had my batt replaced and now my navi is asking for a code which i can't seem to find.. is there any way i can find the code without going to the dealership?

 

Check your glove box, open it and look on the the outside; mine had a sticker on the left side that had the radio and navi code printed on it.

 

Check your owner's manual package. Mine had a card with both radio and Navi codes. The glove box also has them both!

 

i can't seem to find it in the glove box, where exactly is it located??

 

you can pull the navi unit. it should be in the trunk in a bracket, it sounds confusing but its not hard to do. there is a couple of harness to disconnect in the back of it, un plug them.
there are four bolts(two on each side of it) unscrew them. Pull the unit out of the bracket. Located on the bottom of the unit will say serial number, and it usually starts with a letter "b" then a series of numbers.
call an acura dealer with that #, if no help call my dealership (frankel acura) ask for joe S.
410-667-8500 and ill get the 4 digit # for you

 

let me know what you come up with bud


joe

 

on a side note, if you ever lose you radio code there's an easy way to get that serial number as well without pulling anything apart. if your radio display reads code, hold in the #1 and #6 button at the same time before the key is in the ignition, then turn the key so the guages light up but DO NOT START THE CAR. Then turn the radio on, it will flash you two sets of 4 digits each. the first of the four digits should say 3000, the second set of numbers write down and call
a dealer, again if no help, call us at Frankel and ill get the code for you
ask for joe s. 410-667-8500

later guys

 

Great info for future references. Thanks Joe S.
