So, has anybody else here deleted their immobilizer? I have a J32A2 in my Civic, wired in the immobi, etc, but recently I have been worried that I may get stranded somewhere if my receiver goes bad or if I lose my key(happened before, but I found it :P).

So, I removed the immobi board from the ECM. It starts up just fine, only it takes about 3 seconds of cranking now, and I have to open the throttle a tad.

I know it's not a common thing to do...just wanted to see if anyone else has deleted theirs as well.

Thanks!

Here's a pic

And here's the board...bottom right, small circuit board-

 

Awesome, I love to see J-series swaps! Anymore pictures?

 

I'd rather have it then not. Harder to steal the car. If it works for you then cool. On A real CLS or TL, I don't see why anyone would do it. In fact I dont; think it's that easy on those cars since there are other systems involved.

 

Yea im not sure you can do it on a CL or TL...most people just get the keys reprogrammed. Richie V6 will be recoding my keys to work on my CLS6 ecu

 

I assume the CL's and TL's could probably just take out the immobilizer chip. Just like Evs-one. He is running a CL computer correct?

 

You can't remove it on these cars. It's integrated into the ecu and there's no way around it. I tried for my swap as well. Only thing to do, is get an extra key and have it programmed. I too only have 1 key for it and fear of losing it.

 

That civic must fly!

 

Keys are pretty cheap and it's a nice safety feature. Cost me $24 for my key at the local stealership and programming was free.

 

That bubble is sexy? got more pics or vids?

 

wow i dont know how you got that deal...stealership tried to charge me $200 for programming and a key. I just bought a key that wasnt programmed LOL

 

Thanks for the replies.

I was certain some guys doing AT-MT swaps would have just bypassed the immobi in the MT ecm.
I didn't think so either. Just desolder the immobi board from the main ECM board, and it starts up with no immobi key

I have the Honda HIM to program keys and such, so it's not that I don't want to have the keys. If I had an immobi system manfunction, I wouldn't know unless I wired in a signal light into my car to inform me so.

Yes, I am running a stock CL-S 6 ECM.

Yes, the car does rip pretty good. Very smooth power and it still handles amazing! It's my track car for the season

 

where'd u get the HIM?

 

Bought through my old dealer!

 

lucky dog!
