There is 2 radio fuses, 1 is located in the kick panel. The other is under the hood located on the passenger side toward the windshield. There is another fuse under the cover most likely causing an issue. (generally your clock will be messed up as well if it's the fuse under the hood). Thats how it is in mine.. just my 2 pennies

good luck bro

The clock is fine it's just the radio,
I think it's on the drivers side on the left panel by the steering wheel?

Radio problem

My radio quits intermittently too. Not a fuse problem and no other electrical issues, just the radio. The "fix" is to turn off the engine and turn it back on. Happens several times a day, or, I can go four or five days with no problem.

I hope after three years he found the fuse. If not, it's number 9, upper right, on the passenger side fuse panel. I just replaced it five minutes ago.

I've botched the "code" entering process after i replaced my battery. I tried too many times to enter the code. Now I'm locked out. Im now on "err2". I have a 2004 tsx and I need to find the "backup fuse" and its number on the fuse panel. I see the diagrams but none identify the exact fuse number and location. I tried the "disconnect the battery and let sit for 5 minutes", and that didn't work. I tried the "leave the radio on for 1 hour" with ignition in ACC (accessories) mode. no joy. any suggestions?

Clock works and navigation code came up but radio isn’t working.

I recently jumped my car and connected the cables wrong and now my radio hasn’t worked since. I tried disconnecting my battery but only the code for the navigation comes up. The clock works and everything else but the 5 digit code for the stereo is no longer coming up. Someone please help.

The 2006 Acura has two fuse boxes. One is under the hood, the other under the dash by driver. The one for the radio is number 5, it's a 20 fuse.

It's so boring without a radio lol.My radio fuse blow due to me not disconnecting the Negative(-) cable @ the Battery. While I performed a pig tail on connector A(14p) pin# A11 White constant power, on the output side of the stock amp.( which i can't help but feel is odd) As we all have, I did my homework & set out to change a fuse. On the Inside, driver side kick panel fuse box I Pull 20amp fuse #5 radio - fuse is not blown.

Im basically testing everything for continuity everything seems right... But i got no radio & a fuse not blown. Couldn't make sense of it so decided to bypass stock radio & put an after market head unit, I'm already running some subs & amp on a Line Output Converter.

I'm not a installer, I have no certifications, however, I am a Professional. That being said, "Project Bypass," is underway... & it's a lot of work. New head unit in... positive(+) line ran. Ground line(-), grounded. Illumination, ACC, Remote wires all hooked up.

I hooked the Ground(-) cable back up to the Battery under the hood. When I turned the key on & started the TL the whole car went black. NO POWER NOWHERE!

THIS IS WHAT I FOUND OUT,
*my words are in Blue


The red dot depicts the inconsistencies in what fuse #8 20amp. does. But when i pulled it the fuse was blown. Ive gone through a lot of trouble with operation, "Bypass." all over a mislabeled 20amp fuse. So...#8 20amp fuse?​​​

Try a fuse check in the listed location. Then loose wire or line fuse if not stock radio. And last make sure it’s on lol.
