How do you reset the radio on your 04 Honda accord?

Answer 1

First you need the 5 digit code. Just enter the code into the radio when it asks for code. Use the presets to enter the code. Look long and hard for the code written somewhere in the car owner's manual or somewhere else you might think it is written. If you cannot find the code written down, you have only one choice. Contact the dealer that sold the car and hope they have the code stored in their computer system. If they do not you will have to get the serial # off the radio and take that serial # to any Honda dealer. The dealer will be able to tell you the correct code. To read the serial # you may have to remove the radio. Try taking a dental type mirror and removing just enough of the dash so you can see the side or back of the radio. It may or may not be in a place you can see. If you cannot see the code in this manner you will have to remove it in order to read the serial #. There are sites online that will provide the code but all of them require that you provide the radio serial #, and they charge for the service. Your Honda dealer may give you the code for free. Wish I had an easier way, but there is no other way to do this. Get the code and write it down in many places so this never happens again.
