If you have altered with the settings on your car stereo, sometimes you might want to revert back to factory for a fresh start. I needed to reset my Pioneer car stereo a few times because i couldn't get the right sound i was looking for from the adjustable equalizer and other sound enhancement features. So to make things easier i reset the car stereo back to factory settings and started all over again with the fine tuning process. Now there are two ways that you can reset your car CD Player. The most easiest method is using the reset button provided on the actual front of stereo itself. The second method might be ideal if your car CD Player doesn't have a reset button. This process also works for other radio brands such as Kenwood, JVC and Sony.
(Please be aware this process will not work for removing security radio codes)
Using the factory reset button:
1) Remove the front faceplate panel.
2) You will see a small reset button.
3) Get something small like a pin or screwdriver and push the button in for 5 seconds and release.

Temporarily disconnecting the power:
1) Pop the hood.
2) Using a socket wrench disconnect the negative terminal from the battery post.
3) Wait for about 30 seconds then place it back on. This will reset the cars computer at the same time wiping all the settings clean on the Pioneer car stereo.
