Thanks a lot Hektor. You help me solve my wife's immobilizer problem because she lost the chip when the battery was being changed. We had to purchase another one, but at least its up and running again... I checked fuses, the battery, sp. plugs for spark, fuel rail for fuel and the fuel pump relay. And it was the chip... Oh Dios Mío, Tu Eres El HOMBRE!!!
Hektor you are truly the homie! Car battery died and then the key broke trying to turn the ignition. I jumped the battery and car cranked but wouldn’t fire. Watched your video and put the key back together with the transponder and it worked! Saved me hundreds of dollars from getting a diagnosis. The CRV I bought for $3000 is still going strong! Thanks a bunch!
Thanks so much Hektor!!! This was perfect. My key fell apart but I missed to notice/put the transponder. Just went back to the ground to search for the tiny black rubber piece, found it among some driveway rocks, put it back together inside the key and our 2005 Pilot started with no problem at all! (Of course before knowing this I was going crazy checking the battery, putting more gas to possibly bring mechanic to check pump, etc.) THANKS!!! BLESSINGS.
This video saved me 100+ dollars. I have 2 Honda accord keys, I replaced the key fob and the car would not start. Spent so much time trying to figure out what was the issue and you answered it. Really appreciate.
This actually just happened to me an hour ago when I stopped for gas. Couldn’t figure it out. Checked all the fuses, the ignition. Nothing was making sense. My key broke earlier in the day and I just kind of put it together half assed. It started no problem when I first put it back together. The only thing was it was apart when I tried to start it quick to leave the gas pumps. That was my failure. So much thanks for this video cause you saved our butts! I put the key kind of back together and it fired right up.
You saved me. Literally the exact same thing word per word happened to me. FOB Broke apart earlier came to get gas, car wouldn’t start after with just the key, put the fob with it like you said and boom. Had a mobile programmer on the way you saved me big money thanks a lot!
Omg thank you! I changed the cover on my Honda key and the car wouldn’t start either and it’s been sitting in my drive for weeks waiting to tow it to the mechanic but I decided use TH-cam and I can’t believe the solution was so simple. Thanks
This video saved me. The screw on my key loosened enough for the chip to fall out while cleaning my car in the driveway. I Googled my car symptoms and that brought me here. I'm glad you showed what the chip looked like because I found mine soon afterwards and car started immediately after reinstalling back into my key. Thanks!
I opened mine to change battery. And i saw the the black piece abd thought nothing of it. Si its the chip for car recognition. Wow. Well done. An important little thing.
Exactly what happened to me today. I noticed the tiny chip in the housing but didn't swap it over. It doesn't look like a chip. Tiny! It's in the trash in my girlfriends bathroom. I sent her a text saying not to throw her trash out. Lol. Wish me luck. Thanks for the video! I have an 05 pilot by the way.
Ehh Hector thanks for sharing this video bro..my mother in laws crv was doing exactly this and found out the spare key she was trying to use Lost the programming some how!! Got her other key and instantly green key disappeared off dash and it fired right up!! Glad it was not fuel pump…thanks Hector!
Thank you soo much bro really i appreciate....from 6 pm to 3 am i was check everything but no use i saw your video and after that i found the small piece thank god
Literally just had the exact same issue. Customer claimed "I parked my car, now it won't start". Immediately suspicious of the fob covered in blue painters tape.... transponder missing from inside fob!
Hector 😪 mine won’t crank like that it’s a silent crank. 2003 crv the battery is good. Next is starter I’m moving towards. Door open doesn’t make that noise either.
Thanks for the video bro it really helped. Im lucky I didn’t throw away my old key fob and I did notice that chip thingy. I got one question though, since the old key fob thing has a slot for the chip but the knew one doesn’t. Do I just put the chip thing in there and call it good or what do I do? Looking forward on your reply. Thanks again for the video bro it really helped 😎👍🏻
I got it working. Once I added that chip thingy in there car started. Gonna glue it in there later on just so I won’t keep hearing it rattle in there. Thanks again bro
Bro a question how do you fix the gas needle gauge I was checking something on the cruster and ending up with the needle fell out from the gauge I out it back but it won’t work it work but it’s not even accurate at all
a very very reliable vehicle with a very unreliable key setup. I just bought a 2008 CR-V with 1 good key and 1 broken one, which dealer wants $225 CAD to replace it. I will try to fix it by myself getting help from TH-cam University👍. TH-cam University have saved me thousands of dollars.
My 07 Honda Fit Died while driving yesterday and here's how it went down i was driving on 285 then I got on to my road and turned into my driveway and bam key fell apart and started flashing the green key light i was lucky enough that it died at the tip of the driveway. So I take the keys out and i ask my mom for her set of keys to my car wouldn't start then tried my dad's set wouldn't start. So i don't know
If you're still around, id like to ask you about my 1st gen CR-V. Maybe you could shed some light. Motor swap. No check engine light. Running great. Cold snap/won't start. Getting air/fuel, fire/compression. Before the motor swap, I DID replace cap and rotor. Any ideas? It got negative degrees out and just wouldn't fire up. But get this! I pulled the fuel rail off to check brand new injectors and it fired and briefly ran with the fuel rail off! Starting fluid doesn't do anything. Im wondering if I got some bad fuel and it's just too cold to combust before it's flooding it? Idk. It cranks strong and battery is good.
Hi Hope you can help me. I went to jump start my 2004 CRV (Running Jeep Liberty to CRV) the problem was I got the Positive & negative wrong on the CRV & I tried to start it several times before I realized my mistake. I bought a new battery & installed now the CRV cranks but won't start. I pulled every fuse under dash & under the hood not a single one was blown. Not even the 100 amp battery fuse. What should I check next? Do you have any idea what could be wrong? Thank you.
I had a guy asked me to fix his car once 2005 pilot, I had the same issue I tried to check fuses relays and everything I could find to stop that key from flashing. I asked the owner, have you changed your key? he said no, after more research and few hours into this and few times of me asking him. he got frustrated and told me. Bro! I already told you I haven't changed the key why do you keep asking me!!? then I said it all looks good the only thing wrong I see is that, either the key is a different key, as an unprogrammed spare key or a unprogrammed key. and he said. its the same key I just replaced the casing but its the same key. to his luck he was able to go trash digging and he found the broken piece I had the ignition on ans as he got to the door the key stopped blinking. he said I found it!, I replied I know! he said how? I replied watch this! I cranked the car and it started right up! the piece of plastic wasn't even close to the ignition to make it start. but it started right up!
I got a Honda Civic 2001-2002 and this started for me about month ago. Worked just fina got home 30 minutes later dead. I noticed electric locks and interior didnt went on when i entered, but didnt bother. THen noticed the flashing key. Its been in the garage now for over a month, they ordered a second hand complete kit, so immobilizer ecu and keys. Still nothing?!?! I tried explaining them that i find it strange that the doorlocks and interior lights also went dead. Those are not connected to the immobilizer i believe. Hope someone has an idea or experience with this.
2:14 Come on! When you put this key apart, there was no chip in the casing! It's obvious the guy didn't know how to transfer a key to the other case! Get a new chip, program it and be done with it already! 8:59 It's not only on hondas, It's on every car with immobilizer.
@@HomieHektor Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed your video very much and also the other 2 videos you painted a car. I'm furious with your customer... If you don't know how to do it, go to an expert, pay a fair amount of money and your job is done! But it was a great chance for others to learn what to not do!
@@GiovannyCapone Or if you don't know how to do something, how about giving it a go and trying to learn something new - like this guy did? Nothing wrong with that! He made a mistake and learned a lesson. It cost him some money so he won't probably forget in a hurry. But why bash him over the head for it? It's not like he was trying to perform surgery on someone.
@@chocolate_squiggle To tell you the truth, If anyone wants to do something, without knowing what their doing, and it doesn't effect me, go ahead! Do it! I don't mind! But the customer in this video, well, he screew it big time!! To transfer a key, here in Greece it costs 10-15€. To program a new key 50-60€. If you don't know how to do it, do not do it!! It will cost you more in the long run!!
Hi, thanks for the video ^. my problem is i tried to program a new key with a scanner tool after i had a locksmith duplicate the original, without success. the key fob was bought with an OEM designation. the chip id is the same as the original. the remote buttons are working fine. after programming/registering the key with the scanner the green key light won’t stop flashing. The key will crank the engine but won’t start. The locksmith who programmed the key said there is something wrong with my car immobilizer. Do u know why the new key can’t be programmed? Thought i asked u before bringing it to the dealer. this is the 2010 honda crosstour EXL model

He threw out in the garbage the security chip, the little piece of device which allows the car to start.
My 09 civic has the chip inside the key fob lock/unlock. Honda uses both systems in the older gen cars. Just fyi for anyone that changes keys on them.
