To find the radio code for your 2015 Honda Accord, look for a sticker with the code in your glove box or owner's manual. If you can't find that, you'll need the VIN and the serial number of your stereo to get the code.

You've probably been there before: your car's battery failed, you went through the inconvenience and expense of replacing it, and now you have to deal with your radio requesting a code before you can start jamming out again.

In case you have no idea what your Accord's radio code is, don't stress.

Why your 2015 Honda Accord needs a radio code

Your car's radio may not seem significant to you, but it is one of the most commonly stolen auto parts. That is why radio codes exist: they are a security mechanism that aids in the prevention of theft.

If your 2015 Honda Accord's battery was recently replaced or disconnected, it will prompt you for a radio code. You won't be able to utilize your car's sound system until you input the code, which is a huge deterrent to theft.

However, if you don't know where to look for the key number to unlock your radio, the code designed to confuse possible thieves can also be a tremendous nuisance for you.

How to find your 2015 Honda Accord radio code

The good news is that finding the radio code for your 2015 Honda Accord is rather simple. For starters, just press and hold the power button for a couple of seconds before trying any other fixes. That might just do the trick!

In the event that that doesn't work, you'll have to do some digging. To begin, search in the glove compartment for an "Anti-Theft Radio Code" sticker on the owner's manual or in the glove box itself. The radio's serial number may also be listed here. Just know that anything larger than five digits or anything with letters is not a valid radio code.

How to look up a 2015 Honda Accord radio code

What if you can’t find the sticker? Maybe you lost your owner’s manual, maybe your kid peeled it off—no matter what happened, you can still retrieve your radio code using

your vehicle identification number (VIN)

and your radio's serial number.

Your 17-digit VIN number can be found on your vehicle's registration, your insurance card, your Honda Financial Services Statement, or at the base of the driver's side windshield.

The serial number can be found by pressing and holding all six preset buttons simultaneously. Make sure your car is turned on by inserting the key into the ignition and turning it to the ON position while you do this. The 10-digit serial number will appear after a few seconds.

Once you have both numbers, you can look up the number you actually want, which is the 2015 Honda Accord radio code. You can do it in a few ways:
