    Looks like a non-starter as you need to input zip codes, email address and tel number that all correlate to the original purchase from the main dealer in the US.

    Would still be interested in a recommendation for a RDS though please

    Try your local Honda Dealer

    TELEPHONE NUMBERS

    Honda UK 0845 200 8000
    Honda USA 1-800-999-1009 (Toll Free)
    Honda Canada 1-800-387-5399 (Toll Free)
    Honda Aus 1800 804 954 (Toll Free)
    Honda NZ 0800 2 46632 (Toll Free )


    The cheapest + best option is a local Radio Decoding Service (such as your local Car Radio/Audio Store) where they will connect a laptop to read the working code inside your radio`s memory chip (EEPROM)

    There are other places but these will involve the cost of p+p

    Ebay list at least one pro Decoding Service but expect the cost to be up to £30 > £40 including p+p both ways

    Hi, thanks for that code but unfortunately my code doesn't have numbers above 5. I have tried it though. Any more ideas?

    Code is correct
    Push 1st button 7 times ( 7 will appear)
    Push 2nd button 8 times .............. get the idea


    When 7817 is displayed , push the 5th button

    Easy when you know how
    PS you are not the first to complain about the lack of buttons.
