I have a 2000 Honda Accord LX. I recently had to unplug my battery, and now my stereo needs the code.
Anyone know how I can obtain that code instead of taking into the dealership, where I'll have to pay an arm & a leg for them to do a 2 second job?

Thanks for the help!!!

 

look on the inside of your glovebox if you see a sticker with a series of numbers between 1-6. If so that's your radio code. If there is a sticker with numbers and letters or just numbers greater than 6 that's your serial #. Post the serial number here and I can get the code.

 

To get the serial number try pressing 1&6 buttons at the same time as you turn the radio on; then when you have the serial number Honda can look up the code

 

Hey man. I got that number for you inside my glove box. It's the serial#
Here you go...M98K481418
I appreciate the help.
Also, what's the process of entering in the code?
Thanks again partner!

 

Your radio code is 53513. Just type it in using your preset buttons.

 

Thanks man. You're a life savor!!!

 

Hey, can you help me get the code for my civic?

Serial #M98D307375

Thanks!

 

do you have a program that convert the serial # to the code or something? I'm sure there's an algorithm or something to do that.

 

Yes there is a top secret code decoder ring that comes in every box of cracker jacks; but you have to have an engineering degree from MIT to get it all sorted out and working right ...I really crack me up I'm pretty funny sometimes; if I do say so myself

 

I have to take enough time from rolling on the floor laughing to bring up a related topic.
There are Honda radios which do not require security codes. IE:
'96 to '00 Civics with remote tape / cd drives
Although equipped with the telltale red LED, there is no mention of "security" anywhere on the face.
The seriel numbers will usually start with @F00000000B

I had to go as far as American Honda to get this information (Three dealers later). Evidently, it is not common knowledge; even among local dealers.
