How do you code radio clock because of battery run down on a 2003 Honda Element?

Here's a better way

-with the car off, hold down the 1st and 6th radio buttons and then turn the car on

-the radio will display the 8 digit radio serial number, write it down

-phone your Honda service dept. and tell them the serial no. they'll give you the code.

Answer for Decoding an Honda ElementI've seen the codes in 3 places:

1) Owners manual which came with the car, the VIN # and the stereo codes are in mine and should be in your.

2) Open glove box, seating in driver seat look at the opened glove box, I have a factory sticker which has my radio code on it. I don't think it says radio code but it is. The sticker is on the side wall of the outer glove box, not on the inside and it can only be seen when box is open.

3) From the Honda website go to the owners site ( https://www.ahm-ownerlink.com/login.asp?brand=Honda ) sign up and log in they may have your code there based off of you VIN #

Good luck I hope this helps,
