I have no clue where mine is on the vehicle, but it is written on the back of the business card of my salesman. When I bought the car, he wrote my key code and radio code on it for me!

its a 5 digit number on a lil card that comes with the car when you buy it...... i have never found it anywhere else so if you have actually used that code that you found under your hood to get ur cd player back on let me know

My sister drives my civic and she just changed the battery, she needs to find the code to the HU now. I have no idea who the dealer I got the car from originally was (got it via a 3rd party), so I have no idea where to go to get the code.
BTW it's a 2k1, no sticker anywhere on the car showing the code.

call the dealer (any) and tell them the serial number of the radio. they should give it to you if you show that its not stolen.

I just called a dealer and he said they could do that and then they'd have to have Honda get me a new code...........for $105. YEAH RIGHT.

hmm thats a problem. i looked but couldn't find it on the car either. my code was written on the inspection sheet when i first bought the car. i don't know why honda even did that nobody steals a factory deck and even if they do they go for $20 on ebay. i'd say you're better off just buying one and make sure it has the code. i just sold mine already for $25 or i would've sent it to you.

be careful on the 01's though, like mine, many had issues when they first came out, and my deck was replaced. I always cringe when I have to re-enter the code cause I've got two cards and hope I saved the right one.
There was a recall on the first 01's cause the deck would just shut off by itself, and you had to pull over and pull a fuse under the hood to reset it. I was pissed, I had only had the car for a week.
