So last night while driving my CEL came on.... Figuring it was the gas cap since I just filled up when i got home I tightened the gas cap and pulled my battery terminals off to clear the code. And of course as Im sure YOU all know having owned an S for a while, when I hooked the terminals back up the radio wont work and says "CODE". I called diz and he explained to me that there is a code I need to put in to get the radio work, its an anti theft feature. He said the code should be in my owners manual, except my car didnt have an owners manual when I got it... Called the Ed Napleton this morning though and luckily they were able to give me the code without me having to go up there. Thank God! Listening to wind noise while driving and having no tunes = not cool

 

That happened to me when I bought my S - well... it had the manual but where the code was supposed to be was left blank. Turned out the code was on one of those stickers on the underside of the Trunk lid - you may look around your car if someone stuck the sticker with the code on it somewhere.

 

yea there was a sticker in the glove box with I guess the serial number on it, read it to the service guy at Ed Napleton and he was able to give me the code, i was relieved lol.

 

Glad you got it all situated Kho!

 

that happened to me as well. i had to go to honda, they pulled my vin and had to call the origional honda dealer in ill to get the code. it was a pima

 

What, you mean you don't like listening to wind noise and clutch buzz!?!

 

lol

 

that sucks but good its back up and working. when that happened to me i was able to do the hold 1and6? or whatever it was and get the code that way. much easier.

 

ya know I read that somewhere on the forum... and I tried and couldnt get it to work. For future reference how long do u have to hold it?

 

Some could use this as an excuse to replace the head unit.
