Rep Power: 0

Hi,

So, I have a 2005 Civic that usually runs like a dream.. So, it's gotten somewhat colder and the car is parked outside.. Just a few weeks ago when I turned the ignition on, there was a strange clicking sound, the car didn't turn on, and alot of the maintenance lights came on. After 4 tries, the car finally started and I immediately took it to a maintenance shop. They told me that there was an issue with the code, and so they reprogrammed it.. and things were fine for the next 3 weeks.
Yesterday morning though, the same thing happened - there was the clicking and the indoor maintenance lights turned on. But, this time something else happened: The radio/CD player's screen just flashed the time, and when I pressed CD1, the words CODE appeared, and when I tried to press another button ERROR1 came up.
Can anyone help me with this? Can I reprogram it myself? Or, do I need to take it back to the repair shop again?
Thanks,
S

The radio displaying code is most likely due to your battery being low/dead. It wants the anti theft code entered.

Your car not starting....? What color is the indicator on the top of your battery ?? (Green or Yellow)

the stereo code has nothing to do with your car not wanting to start. it's likely a bad battery that's the problem.
