This radio has a built in anti-theft system. Anytime power is removed from the unit, it will become non-functional. To restore the system to an operating condition, you will need the code. The code is listed on a two small cards that came with the car. You will need to find this code. Look in owner's manual, and everywhere it might have been hidden. Unfortunately, if you can't find the code, you will have no choice but to remove the radio and write down the Serial # which you will find on the back of the radio. Try using a small mirror to look on the backside of the radio without actually removing it. After you find the serial #, take it to your Honda Dealer and they will be able to supply you with the code. Write this code somewhere for future reference.
Wilke339's Answer:
The 5 digit radio code can sometimes be found on a small white decal located on the back side of the glove box door. If not, the dealer may be able to supply it if you tell them your VIN. If that doesn't help, remove the radio to look at the label on top of it, and write down the model number and serial number. (For Honda/Acura, the code is available online for less than $5.)
When you hear a clicking noise is most likely a battery problem however you stated that the battery was replaced so i suggest you check the condition of your cables look for rust or corrosion etc.
I recently replaced the battery in our 1998 Windstar and did not keep the electrical system connected during the changeover. No issues afterwards.
I recently had a car battery replaced. They last for maybe 5 to 6 years or so but always remember to never run aircondisioning without starting your engine (if you run the aircondisioning on the battery it reduces its life) In addition, running the battery down will shorten it's life.
You may want to check to see if the transmission line that runs underneath your battery is pinched. We recently had the same experience, and it was determined that when the battery was replaced, the transmission line was pinched because it sits directly underneath the battery.
I have no idea. Did you ever solve this? My dash board lights became very dim whenever I had the headlights on and my battery light kicked on occasionally. I thought it was the alternator so I just replaced it. The battery light issue is solved but the dash light brightness is still extremely low whenever I turn the headlights on.
Perhaps it is the starter drive. That happened to my riding mower. Got the drive replaced, works fine.
check your battery or you spark plugs
exploding battery?
the battery on your meter has to be replaced.
No the battery is built in but should last a long time.
I recently replaced the battery in my 2003 Pontiac Vibe for $ 79.95 plus tax. I live in Canada, and if you live in the States, you probably would pay less. Keep in mind that this price does not include installation, however, the battery is easy to install. I might add that since replacing the battery my CD now works.
if you recently replaced, charged, or "boosted" your battery, similiar problems like this, i have yet to find an answer on how to fix it other then takeing it to a dealer and have them restore your vehicles configuration.
