A year ago I bought a 2005 Honda Odyssey Touring Edition and just the other night the battery dies on me. I had the battery jumped, but now the Navigation console is requiring a passcode to be entered. I have no idea what this code might be. Does anybody know what the factory default code would be and/or how to reset the code back to the default?

call the dealership, they can handle this over the phone for you

you might find the code in service books ect.

Each system has its own unique activation code.the first place to check is inside your glove box. You are looking for a white adhesive tag that is about 1" long and 0.5 inch high. It should have 4 digit code on it. Most of the time the dealers stick the tag on the inside wall of the glove box. That four digit code is the NAVI activation code.If you bought the car new then your dealer should have the code on file. If you call them they should be able to look it uplI assume you looked through the paperwork and that you couldn't find the white "credit card" that has the theft codes on it. Sometimes the dealers write the number on the inside of the owners manual cover but that is not universal.If you didn't buy the car new you can look on the back of the car to see if there is a dealer label or the original dealer name on the license plate frame and call them. They should be able to look it up from their records if you give them the vehicle identification number.If you don't know who the original selling dealer was, you can call the local Honda distributor (American Honda in the USA 1-888-999-1009) and ask them who the retailing dealer was so that you can call them to get the code.otherwise you have to have the navigation system removed to get the serial number off of it and that costs money.I hope you find the code on the tag in the gloveboxhope that helps

Check your glovebox.

The CORRECT answer is go to https://radio-navicode.honda.com/

This web site requires you know the serial number for your radio and Navi if applicable. The serial number for the radio can be obtained by holding the preset buttons 1 and 6 then pushing the radio power knob. The Navi serial number is found by locating the sticker on the navi unit where you insert the DVD ROM (on a 2005 Odyssey it is under the drivers seat). The sticker is on the bottom of the unit so use a mirror and a flashlight to read the serial number. Once you have these go to the website above and you are set! Don't bother with a dealership they will not help over the phone and want to charge you or take your navi unit out to get the serial number which is NOT necessary!
