The only help I can give is from the owners manual

Audio System Theft Protection
The audio system is disabled when it is disconnected from the power source, such
as when the 12 volt battery is disconnected or goes dead.
■■
Entering the Audio Security Code

“ENTER CODE” appears on the display when the power is reconnected.
111
Turn on the audio system.

222
Enter the security code using the preset buttons.

Models with navigation system
Touch the icon to enter the code, then touch the Done icon to set it.
If you enter an incorrect digit, continue to the last digit, then try again. If you do
not enter the code correctly after 10 tries, you need to visit a dealer to have the
system reset.

There should be a white tag on your second key ring. That white tag is the code for the radio and the code to get another key made.

You sure you aren't just seeing the masked out numbers? Each number press enters the number, but is only represented by an "X" on the screen. Just type out your code and just make sure the number of X's match the number of digits in your code.

Check the glovebox. When I worked at Honda we put the code sticker in there.

When I got my car the code sticker was in the owners manual, close enough to the glove box. I'd check there. I apply the stickers inside the glove box in a hard to see location.

Hey, I've had my car just about a week now and my ABS light and vehicle traction lights came on. I'm assuming this is an error since the car is a week old.

How did you solve this problem? Do I need to take it back into the dealer?

Thanks

since it's only a week old, take it back and ask the dealer.

Shouldn't the Code be on your manual? My code is shown in a small leaflet card, about 4 digits I think.
