Honda radios have a security feature which prevents their use if they are stolen.

This security feature is activated if the radio is disconnected from the battery (I.E. battery in car replaced).

There should be a security code in your owners manual. Enter the correct code, and the radio will work.

If you don't have the original owners manual, (or you can't find the information), you will have to go to a Honda dealer. They will have to verify ownership of the car/radio and can then look up the code.

What is the stereo code for a 2003 Honda Element?

I found the following answer here (http://www.hondaunited.com/stereo-code-for-2003-Honda-element-t265.htm) after I had my battery replaced and couldn't use my radio. I followed the steps, and I have music again! 1. First, you need make sure your stereo is off, then hold down the 1st & 6th preset buttons for the radio while turning the stereo back on. 2. A batch of 8 numbers (your stereo's serial code) will appear for about 20 seconds. Write them down. 3. Contact your local Honda dealer and let them know you need the 5-digit code to unlock your stereo and then give them the 8-digit serial code you got from the 2nd step. They will give you the 5-digit code that you can then enter into the stereo by again turning on the stereo and pushing the according preset buttons. 4. The stereo will give you 10 tries before it locks you out as a safety feature and then you will have to wait an hour or disconnect the battery and try again. Hopefully you can enter the code in fewer than 10 tries anyway. 5. Enjoy your stereo!
