you might have to take the head unit out then give acura the numbers off the back if not take it in to acura and they can get it for you.

thnx l3gdkang/jdm-ka

I have got all the information from the unit (in trunk). its by alpine electronics.
P/N: 39540-SZ3-A810-M1
REF NO: BN1366A 0
SERIAL NO: B60610507 A


i went to acura dealership other day. the pulled up the code for anti theft system by the vin number of my car but it didnt work for me. then they called to the actual dealer who sold this car as new, but the didnt have any information because the car never been there so they deleted all the infromation. then they guy looked up with the serial number of the navi he got a different number but still didnt work at all.. i have no idea what to do with this. this is impossible that theres no solution for that.

you might have a differnt unit then what came with the car so your best bet would be to have the dealship do it for you. they shouldnt charge much.

i got this so far for youi hope it works but im still digging.


What year of RL is? The serial number of LCD screen is nothing but the number on the trunk head unit is the one you need. For 96-03 RLs, it consists of an alphabet "B" with eight numbers, i.e., B12345678. For 04 RLs, it starts with "GLB" and eight numbers, i.e, GLB12345678. Call any Acura dealer in the United States and give them the serial number and then you will get the right 4 digit code.<BR itxtvisited="1"><BR itxtvisited="1">You may also find a serial number sticker if you look around at door hinges, trunk lid hinge, glove box, behind ashey tray, center console, owner's manual, etcEdited by: L3GDKANG/JDM-KA

i have the following information of my 1997 Acura RL 'Premium Package'

P/N: 39540-SZ3-A810-M1
REF #: BN1366A 0
SERIAL #: B60610507 A

i got this info from the unit in the trunk. i went to the dealer other day, i gave him the information he found 4 digit code for me but it didnt work. when i put the code it says 'invalid pin.
Then we called the dealer who sold the car as new but they didnt have any information at all.

its a mystery. now its become a challenge for me to unlock this navi system.
