Will this key fob work with our 2nd gen CL's? I searched but could not find anything on this one. Thanks



It is memory 1

BigLizard

Yes...just change the guts out from the old fob to the new fob.

GreenMonster

Goto the info sticky and then ctrl F to find FCC...

If the number on the back is the same as the one in the thread, it'll work...

...Or just program it and see if it works if you can't read the numbers on the back... (ctrl F to find program in the info sticky).

Or just switch the guts out like GM said, if you're just looking for a new looking fob.

Presto

Green Machine is this easy to do or are you being cute?

BigLizard

You can change the guts. I've seen it done before.

Presto

The FCC is E4G8D-444H-A

Presto

I guess i meant are you being facetious, sorry

GreenMonster

Yeah, so what did the thread that's linked in the info sticky say ??

I'm making it a point to NOT give you the answer... with close to 200 posts, you should know how to find things by now...

BigLizard

No worries.

GreenMonster

If you've got your remote and a flathead screw driver (or butter knife), you just put the screw driver in the slot (that's made for a screwdriver), to split it open, and then push the big button to get the guts out...

But he doesn't need to switch the guts

BigLizard

I know...

GreenMonster

I've been thinking about repainting mine, but I need someone to make stencils for the lock, unlock and trunk logos

Presto

My fcc on the back of my fob is G8D-443H-A
The thread says I looked it up before I posted the new fob #, I didn't understand the answer because of the extra number on my fob now, that is my real question, even though mine right now says 443H-a and the new one is 444H-A and the sticky says 44H-A will it work? The third number is confusing me, im sorry about the status on fcc id's, but I did search like you told me to

I was hoping that just between us 2 SMR owners you could do me a solid

GreenMonster

Ahhh... I missed that.. I just assumed that the "extra" 4 was a typo... Now, it's 443H-A ??

My unused fob has 44H-A on the back...

There are references on ebay that say the 443H-A is for a 00-01 TL/CL

Program it, and see if it works... https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=141058 (this thread is also in the info sticky).

Presto

I think this answered the question, im gonna get it and see if it works, if it doesn't... I guess i'll be switchin out the guts! I like the look of the new one though and really thought that other people would have them and someone would just say "Yes" and the thread would be done haha

Thanks to both of you Green Moderators for the help

BigLizard

No problemo!

Presto

Here is the back for anyone who wants to see it

BigLizard

My main fob is jacked to all hell...I wouldn't mind doing this...

Zippee

That's the same number that's on the back of mine for an '03 CL-S. Should work if programmed properly.

Man, I could shoot myself for not even thinking about that. And here I am programmed a new fob when all I wanted was a newer looking one.

BigLizard

...

what can ya do...

Corrosion

Same here.. None of the buttons have the "logos" anymore.

Presto

For some reason I think there is a difference between 01 and 02-03, don't ask me why but you saw what was on the back of my fob, anybody know for sure or has this really never been brought up?

BigLizard

Probably because it's just not a popular "everyday" mod.

Presto

Im suprised if that is the case, the TL guys are goin nuts for the switchblade fob, i thought everyone would want a replacement for our fob's, especially one under 40 bucks, this board loves cheap mods

romeo112

it'll work. i just reprogrammed it. my old one broke from it bein dropped so many times.

Presto

Thank you Romeo

andre

where can you buy just the "shell"? mine is all worn out.

Blitz

Yeah, I got to drive both new the '07 TSX and TL and all day I was playing with that damn switchblade key. Not sure if I'd think it was such a big deal though. For now I'd just like a new Main Fob.

Presto

Yeah im not too into the switchblade either cause back in 02 my mom had a beetle that had one and I wasnt to into it, the effect wears off real quick, I just think that other fob looks better than my current one, and also my icons are rubbing off bad.

Sidenote, I just got my touch up pen with SMR on one side and Clear coat on the other, wow this thing is awesome, I want to order more just to keep on hand for any emergency! I guess since im the OP its ok if I pull a

GreenMonster

You can't. You have to buy the whole remote..

Presto

Well I bought and paid for it so it will be here soon, if anyone is interested they are only 35 bucks on ebay!

Presto

Well I got it today and programmed it perfectly! I really like it, its a nice change from the original fob, im gonna look at ebay for some other ones too, i like that it also linked to my seat, if anyone is thinking about it to replace their worn one, I say do it!
