What does the code E-00 mean on the stock CD player of a 99 civic ex?

Answer 1

I believe it means this. The power was disconnected to your stereo or your battery was dead prior to this code correct? Its asking you for the code to dissarm the anti theft of the radio. E 00 means you havent tried to enter the unlock code yet. Enter a wrong code and it becomes E 01, another E 02 and so on until E 09 at that point the radio locks itself. The way around it is to disconnect power again and start over at E 00 with 9 tries to hit it. Or take the face plate and the vin # to a dealer and theyll give you the correct code.
