If you are talking about re-setting the anti-theft code due to the loss of electrical power - - you will need the radio's serial number )which you should have received with the delivery of the vehicle) AND the VIN number of the car. Take the numbers to your Honda dealer or call the Honda 800 customer serivce number and they can give you the unlock code. If you do not have the radio number then you will have to pull it from the dash and get the radio serial # off the back of the radio.
I bought my 2003 Element used so I didn't have the information. There was a sticker in the glove box that had the serial number of the radio and better yet the 5 digit reset code.
If you don't have the sticker, try this;
Make sure the radio is off, hold down the 1 and 6 preset buttons at the same time then turn on the radio. A series of numbers will show on the display for about 20 seconds (you can stop holding down the buttons at this point). This is your radio serial number.

Go to the Honda Website and sign up on the Owner's Link. There you will be able to get the code. Click the link.
Open the trunk and check to see if the code is on the underside of the trunk lid. (That is where I find the code to my Honda Accord) If you do not have the code click the link, sign up at the Honda Owner's Link, and then click get radio code.
