Car Forum / Honda Cars / September 2007audio security code
I have a 2003 CR-V. I replaced the battery a couple of days ago, and as I expected, the radio is asking for the security code. I bought the vehicle used from the local Honda dealer a couple of years ago. There is a five digit number written on the back of the manual that I have always thought must be the audio security code. But when I started to enter it, I noticed that a couple of the digits are higher than 6. There are only 6 preset buttons. Does this mean that the numbers on the manual aren't the security code, or does it mean that I'm just not smart enough to enter a number greater than 6? Any help will be appreciated. I have the serial number for the radio, I think. Thanks > I have a 2003 CR-V. I replaced the battery a couple of days ago, and > as I expected, the radio is asking for the security code.

SignatureJim Yanik jyanik at kua.net look in the glove box for a white sticker which will have the radio s/n # or both the code as well. the code is only 5 digits long. look in all compartments as well as the back hatch area. if no luck radio needs to be pulled for code. I dont know what the deales in your area charge to pull radio but in tampa florida it is around $95.00 to $105.00. You can go to a independent stereo shop for a lot cheaper $35.00 to $45.00 >I have a 2003 CR-V.

While CODE is displayed enter the radio code by pressing preset button #1 the number of times represented by the first digit in the code, e.g. if the code is 32561 press preset button 1: 3 times 2: 2 times 3: 5 times 4: 6 times 5: 1 time >> I have a 2003 CR-V.

Even Honda's tech info is unclear on the exact way you enter the digits. So if the code was 43512, you would punch the presets IN THAT ORDER? In other words, 4th button first, then the 3rd button, then the 5th one, and so on? SignatureTegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ >>>> I have a 2003 CR-V.

I bought [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > In other words, 4th button first, then the 3rd button, then the 5th one, > and so on? yup - that simple! Thanks for the responses. I did try the method suggested by gww, pressing each button multiple times depending on the assumed code. It didn't work for my model. While the discussion was in progress, I decided to search the vehicle, again, for the elusive white sticker. Found it on a cup holder where I normally have my iPod holder. The number that worked contained no digits higher than 6. So I entered the number straight out like Jim Beam suggested and that worked. By the way, I was able to get the serial number by holding down 1 and 6 simultaneously. That is a lot better than pulling the radio. Also, the serial number was on the white sticker along with the code. So the whole exercise was kind of humorous in hindsight. I've been trying to get somebody to tell me the code since Thursday night, and it was right under my nose. Thanks >>>>> I have a 2003 CR-V.
