I just hada new battery installed in my 2003 accord v-6, and now the radio dosen't work. It says CODE on the display. Is there a way i can reset it myself or do i need to go to the dealer?

You should have the radio code in your owner's manual or other papers received w/ the vehicle. This issue is discussed frequently. Check the DIY section for guidance.

good luck

Call your local dealer and trade your VIN# for the radio code. Write it down in the manual for reference later, whenever the power to the radio is disconnected you need to reenter the code. Its an anti theft precaution, its supposed to make the radio less valuable to thieves.
