I bought the OEM keyless entry remote and I tried reprogramming it to my car yesterday. it disabled my starter and can't my car on. I was told to do it manually, which i did it. It worked yesterday then today i the same problem had happened. now i tried doing the same thing and it didn't work. I tried resetting my ECU and disconnecting my battery and that didn't work so im out of ideas now.

yikes. I know some members on here have reprogrammed it to their cars... and also, that there are instructions on how to do it here somewhere too...

Yea I followed the directions given on the forum. it doesn't make sense why it not working

agranado

send PM's to the guys/gals who've done it already. im sure they'll respond here or to you directly if they're still active...

asianspec

something like that. either way my car still isnt working

h2o-pr00f

battery and all that are fine? maybe its not the remote that shut it down, how could it do that.. maybe its a coincidence?

I think its a security thing thats happening. Its not my battery because my radio comes on when its in aux. pwr and its not my starter because its clicking when i try to turn it on.

SupraManAG

posibility
maybe your security module is bad
maybe its fucking up your starter
its a possibility

asianspec

could be, i bought it from ebay for 30 bucks

SupraManAG

no no
the security computer
i believe its located under the drivers seat

make sure you purchased the right remote and rule out that its not defective
try to find another remote and program it

well when i searched it on the forums a lot of people have the same FCC number that i do so i don't think thats it

the funny part about this is that i was going to the Acura dealership so they can program it and go to pep boys to get a car manual

SupraManAG

confirm the location of the security module
unplug it for 5 mins then replug it
also reset your battery one more time
first see if your car starts
if yes then try reprograming the remote
goodluck

I found it. its under the passenger seat, but i dunno which one to pull tho.

spencer_homer

under ur hood, the fuse box, check the one that says security or somethin to that degree. i was messin with somethin, poped that fuse, and my car wouldnt start but it would click, im pretty sure thats it. the same thing happend to me

ItsDave

yeah same thing happened to me...all youd hear in the car was tick tick tick tick and the car wouldnt turn on. I unplugged the security box under the pass seat and shut all the doors and it turned off. then plugged security box back in. started right up like normal.

SupraManAG

there you go
wish I was home to look at my electrical troubleshooting book

asianspec

Yea I tried that already. the fuse still looks good and i even pulled it out for about a min to see if ill reset.

I looked at it and i was wondering where on the security box did you pull it. all i saw was a bunch of wires and i didn't want to fuck it up even more.


Its ok meng! thanks for helping out tho!

asianspec

spencer_homer

asianspec

iTrader: (1)
