How do you find and reset the code for the radio in a 2001 Acura MDX?

Try this. turn the radio on and make sure you see "code" on the display. Turn radio off. Hold down preset numbers 1 and 6 and turn on radio without letting go of buttons. You will see the letter U with 4 digits then it will switch to the letter L with another 4 digits. Write down these digits starting with the first set.(ignore the U and L).This is your serial number. Go to a dealership, give them the serial number and ask them if they can look up the radio code for you.(5 digit number). More than likely they won't charge you as long as you ask nicely and show proof of vehicle ownership.Then just enter the code in the radio using preset numbers. They usually charge if they have to manually look up the serial number for you as well as the radio code and type it in for you.|||You will probably have to remove the radio system and find the serial number. Proceed by taking the serial number to your local Acura dealer where they will enter it into their system and provide you with the radio code. This is more than likely cost you some thing because dealerships never do anything out of good will unfortunetely.|||On the handle of the trunk it should be about a five digit number.
