To reset the radio in Your 2007 Honda Accord, turn the key to the "on" position in the ignition and turn Your radio on. After 10 seconds turn the radio off, then press and hold the power button again fortwo to five seconds. Like other automotive electrical systems, Your cars radio is very complex. It pulls power from the alternator while the engine is running, or from the battery if the radio is on but the engine isnt running. Wiring connects the radio to the battery and alternator, as well as to each of the speakers located throughout the cabin. All car radios require at least one fuse to operate. Fuses work to protect electrical components from power spikes, and will blow if too many current floods the system.

I own a 2007 Accord and this didn't work. I actually googled it and found the way to do it which is as follows YOU WILL NEED PEN AND PAPER OR A DEVICE TO RECORD THE SERIAL NUMBER ONCE YOU HAVE ACQUIRED IT FROM YOUR RADIO. TURN THE VEHICLE IGNITION SWITCH OR USE THE START BUTTON TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN THE AUXILIARY (NOT THE START OR RUN) POSITION. TURN THE RADIO TO THE OFF POSITION. (The radio SHOULD NOT display CODE or ERR. The screen should be blank) PRESS AND HOLD THE RADIO BUTTONS ONE (1) AND SIX (6) TOGETHER WITH ONE HAND. WHILE HOLDING BUTTONS 1 & 6 TURN THE RADIO ON WITH YOUR FREE HAND. WHEN HOLDING THE BUTTONS YOU WILL SEE AN 8 DIGIT SERIAL NUMBER. (Some older models will display two separate serial numbers. I.e. U1234 – L5678) ONCE THAT SERIAL NUMBER IS DISPLAYED RELEASE BUTTONS 1 & 6 AND WRITE DOWN OR RECORD THE 8 DIGIT SERIAL NUMBER TO USE LATER. TO ACCESS AND RETRIEVE AND RETURN YOUR RADIO CODE TO YOU, YOUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER WILL ALSO NEED THE SEVENTEEN (17) DIGIT VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (This 17 digit serial number is on a sticker on the driver’s center pillar post, and on the driver’s side of the dashboard visible under the windshield glass, also on your vehicle registration, and your insurance card). NEXT CONTACT YOUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER WITH THE 17 DIGIT VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER AND THE 8 DIGIT RADIO SERIAL NUMBER . ONCE YOU HAVE OBTAINED THE 5 DIGIT RADIO CODE FROM YOUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER GO TO THE VEHICLE. TURN THE VEHICLE IGNITION SWITCH OR USE THE START BUTTON TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN THE AUXILIARY (NOT THE START OR RUN) POSITION. TURN THE RADIO ON. THE RADIO SHOULD DISPLAY THE WORD “CODE”. If the radio displays and error (ERR) message, disconnect the black negative under hood battery cable for 1 to 3 minutes to reset the system). TURN THE RADIO BACK ON AND LOOK FOR THE WORD “CODE”. ENTER THE 5 DIGIT RADIO CODE. THE RADIO SHOULD COME BACK ON.

The easiest way I found to retrieve the code was by calling Honda directly, (800) 999-1009 will get you to an automated 24hr service and all you need is the radio serial number. They'll instantly text you the radio code.

Local Honda at Richmond Rd Calgary was useless. Couldn't do a thing and wanted me to come back in3 weeks and start by paying $160 for analysis. Last time I paid for their analysis was 10 years ago when they said I needed an electrolitic converter. That was nonsense. Went to a real mechanic and nothing was needed. Honda people just couldn't get rid of a signal. Wouldn't waste time with Honda.
