Radio Serial Number Check
- Jun 2, 2016 - A radio code is a serial code that identifies your Acura's radio. If you have lost your radio code, there are a number of ways to retrieve it.
- There are a number of ways to retrieve your radio code. First, check the inside of your glove box. Look for a radio code decal stuck on the wall inside. If it’s not there, check the underside of the engine compartment fuse box cover. Look for the same radio code decal sticker. If it’s not located in any of those areas, don’t worry.
I had this same issue. Finally got a working radio code from https://radiocodevault.com/acura
How To Get Radio Serial Number Acura Mdx
Hope it helps you out :)
What actually works..... Step 1: Find your VIN#, Step 2: Go to the radio unlocking site https://radiocodevault.com/acura/ Step 3: Enter your the code they give you. Pretty simple, and avoids a trip to the dealership.
Not simple. I took my newly purchased 2001 Acura MDX to an Acura dealer. I had phoned and said I need the code to make the stereo/radio work. The dealer said no problem, bring it in, and no charge. I appreciated that and said I'd pay for a used car inspection (to show my appreciation). At the dealership service department I waited over two hours. The service manager then came out and showed me a list of items they believed I needed to do (replace struts, electrical, etc. -- quite lengthy for a vehicle with 'only' 140,000 miles). I asked 'so is the radio/stereo working now?' He said no. They couldn't get me the code unless I paid them to remove the radio, and obtain the radio serial number. Was I dissatisfied? Yeah, quite.
If you need a website that actually gives you your code pretty quick your best option is this one http://radiocodevault.com/acura/
They sent me back my code in a few hours
But don't try random codes, get your code from a real source
