Just bought a 2001 v6 honda accord, no manuals yet, is there a code that needs to be put in to have the stereo gear to work?

No

Yes. There should be a small sticker somewhere in the owner's manual with the code. If you don't see it there, take the radio serial number and proof of ownership of the vehicle to the Honda dealer and he can get the code for you. Some charge a small amount but most do it for free. You will need the code anytime the battery is disconnected.
