2019 Honda Accord Touring
If your 2000 Honda Accord’s battery has died or been replaced, you’ll likely need to re-enter the radio code. This security feature prevents theft, but can be a minor inconvenience if you don’t know where to find your code. This guide will show you how to locate your 2000 Honda Accord Radio Code and get your audio system working again.
Locating Your Honda Accord Radio Code
There are several ways to find your 2000 Honda Accord radio code:
Check Your Owner’s Manual
The most common place to find your radio code is in your Accord’s owner’s manual. Look for a sticker or a section specifically mentioning the “audio system code” or “radio code.” It’s usually a five-digit number.
Look for a Sticker in the Glove Box
Sometimes, the radio code is written on a sticker placed inside the glove compartment. Check carefully on the walls, door, or underside of the glove box lid.
Use Honda’s Online Resources
Honda’s official website often provides a way to retrieve your radio code. You’ll typically need your vehicle identification number (VIN), the radio’s serial number, and possibly some personal information. Search for “Honda radio code retrieval” on Honda’s website.
Contact Your Local Honda Dealership
If all else fails, your local Honda dealership can retrieve the code for you. They will likely need your VIN and proof of ownership.
Entering the Honda Accord Radio Code
Once you have located your five-digit code, entering it is relatively simple:
-
Turn On the Radio: Turn the ignition to the accessory position or start the engine. The radio should display “CODE” or a series of zeros.
-
Enter the Code: Use the preset buttons (1-6) on your radio to enter each digit of the code. Each button press will cycle through the numbers 0-9.
-
Confirm the Code: After entering all five digits, press the preset button labeled “5” or a designated button indicated in your owner’s manual to confirm. The radio should unlock and resume normal operation.
