If your 2015 Honda CRV radio is displaying “Enter Code,” it’s likely due to a recent battery disconnection or replacement. This anti-theft feature requires a unique 5-digit code to unlock the radio. This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough on how to find your 2015 Crv Radio Code and get your audio system working again.
Locating Your CRV’s VIN and Radio Serial Number
Your 2015 CRV radio code is linked to both your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the radio’s serial number.
Finding Your VIN
The VIN is a 17-character sequence of numbers and letters. You can find it in several locations:
- Driver’s Side Door Jamb: Look for a sticker on the inside of the driver’s side door frame.
- Windshield Base: Check the lower corner of the windshield on the driver’s side.
- Vehicle Registration: Your car’s registration documents will also contain the VIN.
Finding Your Radio Serial Number
There are two ways to find your radio’s serial number:
1. Through the Radio Display:
- Turn on the car and the radio. The “Enter Code” message should appear.
- Turn the radio off.
- Simultaneously press and hold preset buttons 1 and 6, then press the power button. The serial number (e.g., S/N 12345678) will be displayed.

2. On the Radio Unit Sticker:
- Carefully remove the radio from the dashboard using a flathead screwdriver or similar tool. You might need to consult your car’s manual for specific instructions.
- Locate the sticker on the side of the radio unit. The 8-digit serial number will be printed on it.
Generating and Entering Your Radio Code
Generating the Code
- Visit a reputable online radio code generator for Honda vehicles (e.g., unlockcarstereo.com).
- Enter your VIN, the 8-digit radio serial number, and your CRV’s model year (2015).
- Submit the information, and the code will typically be emailed to you.
Entering the Code
- Turn on your car and the radio.
- Use the preset buttons (1-6) to enter the 5-digit code. Each button corresponds to a digit.

After entering the correct code, your radio should unlock and resume normal operation. If you encounter issues or receive an error message, consult your owner’s manual or a Honda dealership for further assistance. Entering an incorrect code repeatedly can lead to a temporary lockout, requiring a waiting period before attempting again.
