after diconecting battery i then went to reset my audio system with the code . entered the wrong code 3 times it is now showing up as error on the display. I have read that it has now activated the anti theft system and the unit must be replaced. Can any help please.

 

2009 and newer? If so, you might want to try posting in the Series II (09+) electronics forum. I'm not aware of any 2004-2008 RX8's having the anti-theft codes, but I could be wrong.

At any rate, industry wide since the dawn of time, when you enter the code incorrect X number of times, it just locks for a set amount of time. Usually a few hours.

 

WTF, the radios have an anti-theft code? I thought the S1's didn't have codes.
I have a S2 as well, and this would suck...lol I plan on disconnecting my battery for a few hours next weekend to upgrade my speakers...
