Options:

  • Look for the cards with the radio code, it normally come with the owner's manual package (new or from a previous owner).
  • Check in the glove compartment, sometimes the dealer will put a sticker there with the code.
  • Dealer usually provides it for no charge with proof of ownership. Will need radio serial number.
  • Can retrieve via Honda ownerlink website if you have original owner's phone, zip code, car's VIN, and device serial number.
  • Call Honda America customer service
https://radio-navicode.honda.com/

Refer to my post #6 in the following there to see how retrieve device serial number which is needed to obtain the code from Honda ownerlink or dealer.
