If you need to find a 2010 Honda Accord radio code, start by looking in the glove box and owner’s manual for a sticker with the radio code on it. If you have no luck there, you’ll need to use a combination of your VIN and stereo serial number to access the code.

Picture this: your car unexpectedly died and you went through all the hassle and money to have the battery replaced, only to find that your radio won’t turn on. Nobody should be forced to drive without their favorite sing-along stations, so if you’re locked out of your radio, you’ll need a code to turn it back on.

Why your 2010 Honda Accord needs a radio code

Believe it or not, radios are one of the most frequently stolen items from cars.

Honda

helps prevent you from falling victim to this by requiring a code to turn the radio back on once it has been removed from its power source.

Although it is intended to be a defense mechanism, your 2010 Honda Accord radio may require a code to turn it back on after your car has died or you get a new battery. If many drivers didn’t even know their radios had codes, how are they supposed to know where to find them?

How to find your 2010 Honda Accord radio code

Finding your radio code is a very straightforward process once you know where to look. In many cases, though, your radio can be reset without a code by pressing and holding the power button for two seconds.

If you lack the magic touch and the reset fails, you’ll have to put in a little more work. Start at the glove box and look for the “Anti-Theft Radio Code Number” sticker to find the elusive code.

The sticker will most likely have the radio’s serial number on it as well, but the five-digit number will be the radio code. If you can’t find the sticker, your owner’s manual should also have the code listed inside.

How to look up a 2010 Honda Accord radio code

What if you can’t find the sticker and have no clue where your owner’s manual is? Don’t worry, the radio code can be retrieved with your Accord’s

vehicle identification number (VIN)

and radio serial number.

You can usually find your VIN at the base of the windshield on the driver’s side, as well as on your insurance card and registration documents.

If you are going to take the serial number route, press the radio preset one and six buttons simultaneously while turning the radio on. When done correctly, your 10-digit radio serial number will appear on the display.

Once you’ve found both of those numbers, you will finally be able to find the most essential number: the 2010 Honda Accord radio code. There are a few ways to access this code:
