I changed the battery on my Honda Element and now the radio does not work. I found the code but it still reads error. Does anyone know how to reset the radio?

Not sure about an Element, but with my RSX, when I turn the radio on the first time after disconnecting the battery the display flashes "CODE" and the radio won't work until I enter the code with the preset buttons... :confused:

Thanks, I actually figured out what I did wrong. If you enter the code incorrectly it won't allow you to try again for 24 hours. I must have entered the wrong code initially, I tried again a few days later and it worked.

nursetina1, if you call Honda, they can probably walk you through it over the phone.
