You can ask the service manager if he will charge you anything if you buy the keyfob from the dealer.
If he wants too much, or if you want to do it yourself, you can follow these instructions.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER (KEYFOB)
Storing transmitter codes.
The codes of up to three transmitters can be stored into the keyless receiver unit memory. (If a fourth code is stored, the code which was first input will be erased.)
NOTE: It is important to maintain the time limits between the steps. Make sure the doors, the hood and the trunk lid are closed.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II)
2. Within 1 to 4 seconds, press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit behind the driver’s side of the dashboard.
3. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch ON (II).
5. Within 1 to 4 seconds, press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit behind the driver’s side of the dashboard.
6. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch ON (II).
8. Within 1 to 4 seconds, press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit behind the driver’s side of the dashboard.
9. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch OFF.
10. Within 1 to 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch ON (II).
11. Within 1 to 4 seconds, press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit behind the driver’s side of the dashboard.
12. Confirm you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators within 1 to 4 seconds, then push the transmitter lock or unlock button again, or the code will not be stored.
13. Within 10 seconds, aim the transmitter (up to two additional ones) whose codes you want to store in the keyless receiver, and press the transmitter lock or unlock buttons. Confirm that you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.
14. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and remove the key.
15. Confirm proper operation with the transmitters.
NOTE: Once the programming mode is entered, the remote button must be pressed a second time. If the button is not pressed, or if the ignition switch is turned OFF, the programming for all remotes will be cancelled.

I think E-bay sells them (much cheaper than what dealers would charge you). It says dealers can help you for programming.

ron a:
wow, thanks for the link and the information.
so basically, when i buy my fob from this site, i do the turn ignition on and off for 3 cycles, then turn it on and press key fob 1, then key fob 2...or start the whole cycle again for key 2?
also, when i do this process, will the Information Display still indicate DRIVER 1 and DRIVER 2 and will the memory seat still work?
again, thanks for you help. info was great.

2. Who can remember all that? When you are ready, print out the instructions, and follow them to the letter. You have already left out a step in what you said above, but with the instructions right there, you will be OK. May take a couple of tries, but not that hard either.
3. There are two keyfobs listed, No. 1 and No. 2. Make sure you get the one that corresponds to the one you messed up. Then the MID will work and the memory seat will work and everything else that worked before will work.
The instructions say three key fobs can be programmed, and since there are only #1 and #2 sold, I guess the third keyfob has to be either 1 or 2. There is no provision for a #3 in the MID, I guess, so the third one would work the same as one of the other two. Just a clarification for someone else who may read this and need this information.

i'll be ordering #16 from that list you sent, which is key fob 1. although it is only key fob 1, i will still need to reprogram both when i follow the instructions correct?!

As I said, there are two #16 shown. The Part No. for #1 is 72147-SEP-A52, while the Part No. for #2 is 72147-SEP-A62, so be sure and order or ask for the part number for keyfob #1.
You don't need to reprogram keyfob #2 because its code is already stored in the receiver. Make sure you follow the instructions in the last NOTE in the instructions, or you will be reprogramming both 1 and 2.

has anyone ever ordered from http://www.keylessride.com, they offer replacement factory remotes for cars...the TL comes to $54...
trying to save a few bucks...or should i stick with the acura site for $66?

They also say the remote comes with instructions (which you have but it is a nice thing that they provide this), and telephone help. If you do order from keylessride, let me know how it works out. If they are good, I will put their link up with the instructions so people will find it more easily.

ron:
i'll let you know how it goes. i would of felt a little more comfortable ordering from the acura site, in terms of guaranteeing its a factory remote, but the place has it for $18 cheaper, shipped. when i called they did say it was genuine factory and they also have a couple of retail locations in the states. so i'm assuming its ok. they said since its a new car, so they have a slight backorder on this product, but should ship in 5 days. they also have a 30 day satiscation guarantee, so if its not up to par, i'll return it and get the one from acura site. i'll keep you posted. customer service was nice also.

Hey guys I want to do this mod and thought that the instruction that you posted Ron A were a little bit unclear. You say to push either lock or unlock... am I supposed to hit lock one time, then unlock the next time? What about the trunk?

The trunk doesn't enter into this procedure. Just press lock or unlock.
To make it simpler, just press the lock button all the time.

You are programming the keyfob to the receiver, not to the individual locks. So the lock or unlock key is only a method to send a signal to the receiver and has nothing to do with the actual operation of the door locks or the trunk lock during programming.
When the receiver gets the proper signal, it doesn't care which keyfob it is from, it will open the doors or the trunk.
The key fob (transmitter) is numbered 1 or 2. This tells the receiver which driver is going to use the car and sets the memory positions accordingly.

I'm assuming its for an 04 TL remote the previous links, but I've found them for only $29 on ThePartsYouNeed.com when I was searching for my 02.
Here's the 04 listing:

disabling lost remote transmitter / keyfob
If you lose a remote transmitter / keyfob, and you purchase a new one, wouldn't you also want to disable the old one? Same with the keys with the transponders in them.

2 or 3?
Is it possible that on the '07s only 2 remotes can be programmed? cause I have 3 remotes and when I try to program them, the first one I program never works. I've tried doing it in different orders, but the same thing happens every time. any suggestions?

I bought a used #1 remote on Ebay (I already have the #2), and tried to program it exactly as you described. It didn't work. My car, BTW, is an '03 TL-S. The remotes look exactly the same as each other, except that the little FCC number on the back is different. Does this matter? Does it matter that my car is a 2nd gen?

After recently researching and buying a new remote for my 05 TL, my understanding is that the FCC number has to be the same as the original.
Took about 37 attempts but I fanally got mine programmed this afternoon!

You don't need to reprogram keyfob #2 because its code is already stored in the receiver. Make sure you follow the instructions in the last NOTE in the instructions, or you will be reprogramming both 1 and 2.

The number 2733A3 is stamped inside the case. The circuit board says OMRON G8D-444H-A on it. Does this mean it is the wrong remote?
#33
The back of the case shows the numbers you need, which I have copied below. Since your numbers are different (G8D-444H-A) the keyfob will not work.
Codes for 3G TL (from an 04 but I think other years are the same)
FCC: OUCG8D-387H-A
IC: 850G-G8D387HA
and below these it shows GHD-387HA

my pc printer is down and I just sent this link to work so tomorrow I'll print it and try it ...my sister sold her '06 TL and the dealer never asked for her "spare" one which she used a few times so I hope I can re-program it as my very used fob is on it's last leg, the trunk button almost never works....any thoughts on this??...

the previous owner of my car didn't give me any of the keyfobs, they just gave me a single key.
How do I know which remote to buy? Isn't there a chip in the key? How do I know which key to match with the switchblade remote?

How do you know when your car has actually entered program mode? Is there a display somewhere? I have been trying and trying to program the remotes that came with the car from a used car lot. I think they messed up and gave me the wrong remotes because neither one has a button where the trunk release would normally be. It's just an empty place on the remote.
