Ok I did a search and my dilema is not quite like what anyone else has had. I purchased an 04 MT non navi from a used dealer. The radio says CODE when I turn it on. So I dig through the glovebox and find a card with the supposed code and serial number on it. So I punch in the code....it doesnt work. It says ERR1....it does this through ERR9 and then it just says ERRE. I called the acura dealer and he said to disconnect the battery for awhile and then reconnect and try again. Why would I have to disconnect and then reconnect?? Anyone have any ideas??

 

anyone??

 

probably to clear the memory of the system and to start over fresh... you might have locked the radio and possibly need to disconect the battery to unlock it.... just a thought..

 

tried disconnection for 30 seconds and it still didnt work. I think I have a different radio than what my card says, so I will have to look into that now...

 

try to leave it disconnected longer. it still holds a charge.. or you can take the postive and negative termials and touch them together... that will competely drain the power immediately..

 

try to leave it disconnected longer. it still holds a charge.. or you can take the postive and negative termials and touch them together... that will competely drain the power immediately.. if that doesn't work. try to verify that the serial numbers are correct.. . but first look in the trunk, on the trunk lid, open the nav cover door, and even look under the hood somewhere.. i have heard sometimes that people find their radio codes their... im not sure about non navi, but i had to remove the upper gauge with the center vents (above the radio) and i was able to see the serial number..... when i got my car, i didn't have a radio code, so i had to get the S/N from removing the upper center vents and was able to use one of my dental mirrors and find the numbers... then call the dealer... hope this helps... it was pretty straight forward entering the numbers just type them in,,, no other additional steps... but again, my car is navi, so it could be slightly different but i doubt it;. sorry edit time ran out.

 

Holding down one and six at the same time, with the key ON and the radio on should give you your serial number. This then give to the acura dealership and they give you your code.

 

Are you sure that this will work on a 3G and not a 2G????

 

I have to try it today, thats what my acura dealer told me??

 

Worked on my 2G
