yestarday the batter died on my cl now it asking me for a radio code. the dealer is closed till tuesday is there anything i can do? does anyone know the code or is different for every cl?

 

is it not in the drivers handbook thing, first page?

 

nope not in the book already looked.

 

It might be on the glovebox hinge, facing the driver's seat. Its posted there on later model Acuras. (2004+ ish).

 

yeah looked there but i ended up finding it on google. for cl's 01-03 turn radio off hold down 1 and 6 then hit the on button. the radio will display a code that looks like this u#### L#### and the numbers are your serial number. this will save alot of time with not having to take center console apart. I thank you for your help though .

 

is there anyway to do this on a tsx???

 

On the TSX the radio code is on a sticker on the glove box hinge, facing the driver's seat (just as I said).

 

i tried looking there and also the back of the trunk. im one of the unlucky ones that dont have it. previous owner might of taken it off

 

It was provided with my '06 CPO on a card, which I presume new owners get (mine came with lotsa original paperwork, including the original delivery inspection and owner signoff).

Failing that, I'm sure any Acura dealership can look up your radio code from your VIN (no help on the weekend, but...). I'm not sure the radio Ser. # is the same ... else any crook could steal the radio, apply power, and voila, they have the anti-theft code.

 

Hey guys im new here, and I just wanted to say that the thing he did for his CL also does work for the TSX but its not the code for the stereo, its actually the serial number which you give to the dealership and then they give you the code, still saves time so you dont have to take out your center consol
