Why your 2011 Honda Civic needs a radio code

What exactly is a radio code, and why does it matter? Well, since car radios happen to be one of the most frequently stolen objects in car thefts, it’s meant to work as a protective measure.
When your car radio detects that it’s been disconnected from its power source, it will typically require a radio code the next time it’s turned on. If you don’t know the code, you won’t be able to use the radio.
That safeguard can become more of an inconvenience for you if your 2011 Honda Civic’s battery died or was recently replaced and you don’t know the radio code.

How to find your 2011 Honda Civic radio code

Luckily, it’s actually pretty easy to track down your 2011 Honda Civic’s 5-digit radio code. You actually might not need to enter it at all—sometimes, if you press and hold your radio’s power button, you might find that a simple reset was all your radio needed.
If you’re still prompted for the radio code, there are a few places you can usually expect to find it. The first place you’ll want to look is your glove compartment—here, you might be able to find a sticker on your manual or the inside of the glovebox itself that lists the radio code and radio serial number. 
It might also be on its own Honda-issued card in your glove box

How to look up a 2011 Honda Civic radio code

If you still can’t find your 2011 Honda Civic radio code, there’s another way you can look it up. To do so, you’ll need to know your vehicle identification number (VIN) and the radio serial number. 
You can find your VIN listed in several different places: on your dashboard, the driver’s side door jamb, your vehicle registration documents, or your insurance policy ID card—which you should always have available to show as
proof of insurance
.
Your radio serial number can typically be found on the same card that lists your 2011 Honda Civic radio code. If you’re unable to locate that, with the radio on, you can press buttons “1” and “6” on the radio at the same time, and your 10-digit radio serial number should display across the screen. If you feel comfortable doing so, you could also carefully remove your car radio to look for a serial number label on the backside of the radio.
Once you’ve tracked down both of these numbers, you’re ready to retrieve the third: your 2011 Honda Civic radio code! Here’s how:
  • Enter your VIN, radio serial number, and other necessary information
  • Check your email for a confirmation and your 5-digit 2011 Honda Civic radio code
Once you have your 2011 Honda Civic radio code, the next time you turn on your radio, simply use the numbered buttons on your radio to enter it and regain access.
If you run into issues during the process, you can call Honda customer service at 1-800-999-1009 or contact your local
