Owners manual will give instructions on how to enter lock code. The lock code is 4-5 digit number usually printed on a card amongst the owners manual/documents
If the remote was programmed before loss of power, push and hold the unlock button until the alarm stops. If not try locking and unlocking the drivers side door with the the key. This has reset the alarm on my 2001 Odyssey.
You will also need the unlock code to reactivate your stereo after long term power loss. It is on a card with the manual given to the owner of new vehicles. A smart dealer will put it on a sticker in the glove box. Otherwise you have to remove the radio and give a Honda dealer the radio serial number to get the unlock code. Don't try it randomly; 10 incorrect tries locks the stereo.
The remote needs to work if the vehicle originally came with the remote from the factory. It gives off a signal to the ring around the ignition switch to deactivate the alarm.
need to notify a dealer radio loc code is part of anti theft system but call first they can advise how to retrieve the radio id code which will also be needed with id and proof of vehicle ownership they will give u code
no its not a fuse the anti theft built in the radio has locked you out and the only way to get it to work again is pull it out and copy all the numbers that are on it call your local dealer for that vehicle ask for parts department tell them you replaced the battery and need the unlock code for the stereo. also it will help you if you tell them u work for a mechanic shop just give them the name of one they dont question anything. and they'll give you the code
I have a 2001 focus ..radio suddenly stopped playing after being at garage. I thought that the battery was disconnected and the radio neede reset code, as it has a rad blinking dash anti-theft light. i went to ford garage and they told me they don't have reset codes on the focus. Is this true?
I also need stereo unlock code for 1997 olds silhouette (Delco Stereo)
Thanks,
Pat
