How Do You Enter A Honda Accord Radio Code?

Drivers wondering why they’re being asked for a Honda Accord system code have come to the right place! When you change the battery, the Honda Accord radio will automatically ask for the code. Usually, this can be resolved by holding the radio power button for a few seconds until the radio starts—no code necessary. Sometimes, this doesn’t work, and the code needs to be entered manually.

Retrieving Your Honda Accord Audio System Code

There are a few ways to retrieve your Honda Accord radio code:

• Look inside your glovebox or owner’s manual for the code. You’ll find it on a sticker with the radio serial number.
• Visit our Honda service center at Southaven Honda near Memphis, TN. One of our certified technicians can locate the code for you in no time.
• Retrieve your code online via the OEM website. To find it online, you’ll need to enter your zip code, phone number, email address, VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), located on the driver’s side of your car behind the windshield, and serial number.

If you have trouble finding the radio serial number, check and see if you have the anti-theft ID card that came with your vehicle. You can usually find it in the glovebox. If you can’t locate the card, though, contact your local dealership for assistance or try the following:

1. Turn on the ignition of your Honda Accord.
2. Turn on your radio, and confirm that your radio display reads “CODE.”
3. Turn off your radio, then press and hold the “1” and “6” radio preset buttons.
4. While holding “1 and “6,” turn your radio on.
5. If successful, you should see an 8-digit serial number appear on your radio display.

Entering Your Honda Accord Audio System Code

So, once you have the Honda Accord radio code—what next? Thankfully, entering the code is the easy part. Enter the code using the radio preset buttons. So, if your Honda Accord audio system code is “33351,” you would press “3” three times, “5” once, and “1” once. This should unlock and reset your car’s audio system.
