Same thing happened to me when i bought my TL. as long as you have the radio serial number you can call your local Acura Dealer tell them the serial number over the phone and they should provide you the radio code. Had my radio working in literally 5 minutes.

local stereo shop just got it for me - radio removal required to verify radio serial number, then they call and get the number. $30 and you've got the code for next time.

If you still got the problem.. just call the dealer they will walk you through it. lots of people are getting ripped off by the dealer saying that they have to hack your stereo or something like that.

in order for the 1 and 6 thing to work

turn the power off
push 1 and 6 at the same time and hold
while holding turn stereo on and it will pop up your number.

hope this helps
