To unlock a radio you must input the radio code. This is done using the preset radio station buttons on the face of the radio. Contact your dealer for more info on your radio code if you don't have it.

How to reset radio after changing car battery?

By inserting the code into the radio with the presets. Look for the code written on a acrd or in the owners manual. If the code is for instance 46215 then just push those presets numbers. Code must appear on the screen in order for it to take the code. If lock appears turn the radio on for 3 hours and it will reset to code.

Does the radio lock when you turn off check engine light on 2004 Jeep Liberty?

I think you are assuming that to reset the check engine light you can just disconnect the battery. Disconnecting the battery on a 2004 OBD2 compliant vehicle will not reset the check engine light. It must be reset with an OBD2 scan tool. This would work on OBD1 vehicle but not on OBD2 vehicles. So the radio issue is mute. Have the problem that set the check engine light repaired and then reset the light with the tool. Reset the light without correcting the problem and the light will just come back on.

How do you reset or silence the security alarm on a 2004 Honda Pilot?

Don`t buy another Honda! While I agree largely with the above statement, especially since it shouldn't be such an ordeal to change out a battery the simple answer is as follows. While connecting the battery as in my case have an assistant manually or remotely lock and unlock the door a few times. That should silence the alarm. Next you'll need to get the radio and navi codes from your dealer to reset the radio and navi systems.

2002 Kia Spectra radio codes?

If your the actual owner of the car and it has the manuals, there's a 4 digit code in one of the Kia manuals for the radio, it's usually something like 1212 but if you enter the wrong code too many times, it locks up and you have to disconnect the battery cable and re-connect it to reset the lock on the radio.
