wow it just worked for me, My 2016 civic x Turbo wasn't giving beep sound on locking & and no remote start functionality but after watching this vlog I checked my door locks and found my front passenger side lock wasn't moving upon locking / unlocking so I manually locked/ unlocked it once AND EVERYTHING started FUNCTIONING 😀 Big thx ❤ ...this literally solved my problem in 5 minutes, I watched, went to my car, did the thingy & it worked great vlogs bro, keep it up Nader Islamabad , Pakistan
Hi, awesome video! I was just hoping for some further help. Sure enough, I followed your video and the latch was unplugged. I plugged it back in and the locking feedback worked, as did the remote start. However, after two tries the remote start stopped working again. The locking feedback still works though. Do you have any ideas on how to fix?
Wow, Great, I sent my car to a mechanic he couldn't figure out why the car won't run on the remote, when I showed him the video he felt confused, he tries, and it works!!😁
just bought a new used CRV 2017 and the dealer couldn’t even get the remote start working. Your video helped a lot. In our case, the hood latch sensor was not even connected, but you pointed me in the right direction. awesome. Thank you
Yeah, I had this same issue after taking my car to the shop. Ridiculous. They didn’t plug it back in. It avoided me from having to take it back to the shop. Great video. Thanks!
hey, i have the same issue right now on my 2021 honda civic ex. I don’t know why it does that. What’s your vehicle? I’m wondering if we might be part of the same recall…
Thanks so much! I was about to drive my new car hours to dealer for this problem. It turned out the hood was not firmly closed. You saved me at least a day!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I installed a dash cam and unknowingly popped the hood. My car had exactly the symptoms you describe but no hood open light. Fully closing the hood fixed everything.
Dude! You saved me! Thank you! My pilot had the hood latch replaced as part of the recall by the dealer and THEY forgot to plug back in the cable. It hasn’t worked since then but I didn’t realize it was because of that until now. Thank you.
Thanks. This clip saved my money. My hood was left open and remote key start was not working and I messed up around a lot of things. Saw this clip and now feeling relaxed.
Just bought a used odyssey and it was driving me crazy that my car would not beep when I locked it! After much research I finally came across this video and I had a good feeling this was the fix I needed. Went out to take a look under the hood and sure enough the plug for the switch had came unplugged. So I plugged it back in, and I got the beep! Thanks for the help!
Thank you brother! Your video helped me troubleshoot step-by-step. I had opened the hood by mistake by lifting the hood lever instead of the gas tank lever (they are next to each over). I didn’t realize it. The hood is now closed properly, and the car beeps again with the lights coming on. All is well. Thank you again🙏🏾
My 2020 accord sport was in a small front collition and since i got it never flashed lights or made the locking sound. After watching this video I went outside and checked the hood latch and the connector was disconnected, plugged it back and now it works as it should. Thank you for the great video!
Thank you sir! I have been driving my 2019 Touring Hybrid Accord for almost 1.5 years now thinking I have a wiring or ECU problem and eventually gave up until I saw your video. Gotta admit, it does feel nice to have the auto lock walk away feature as well as the locking audible feedback. I wasn't the first owner so I assume the has been in an accident before or somehow the latch is defective in another way. Thanks again! Done the jumper wire trick and all the issues were instantly resolved! I was confused at the start of my inspection as the latch and the switch looked intact. Tried cleaning the switch but still didn't succeed as it looks like its damaged internally, not closing the circuit. I'm on the look out for a new latch now.
I'm so glad I saw this because I could not figure out why my car alarm would not work hours after taking it in for service repair. I did not realize the service repair guy did not close the hood completely and lock it. Not until 3-days later as I was driving onto the freeway doing 60+ the car hood started bouncing up and down. I pulled over and secured it and tested the key fob my alarm worked. Jeez!
Hi, I want to thank you today I had the same issue you put on the video, I went to a shop Where they program remote Keys I explain your video to them and they didnt triste me so they check with the scanner, after a while I did open the hood and find out 1 of the 2 wires of the plug from the hood latch was cut of, so they fix it and problem solved
@@DIYAutoworksNG Thank you very much for greetings. You are a real professional for me with great personal culture - you always reply to all comments, it's a rarity these days.
Hey man, just have to say your videos are monumental! I’ve learned so much already but I have a 2017 Honda Accord Touring Coupe & I was in a accident the impact was only and directly to the driver side headlight area, which Ik is where Honda has a lot of relays/sensors/& wiring. Well I cannot for the life of me get my car to start back up, anyway we could exchange emails so maybe I could send you a few pics of it & pick your brain? It would be SERIOUSLY appreciated, as I’ve been researching and trying to figure this out for a while but I finally found your page earlier and I’ve spent hrs watching your videos and reading literally every comment and reply & it’s very clear you know SO much more. My car doesn’t react to literally anything from my key fob, yes the hood is off the car so I will try to jump it in the morning but please if I could pick your brain and ask a few questions off of here would be great man
Wao mil gracias, ese era mi problema y con este video fue la solucion para mi civic 2018 ahora se blquean las puertas al alejarme y enciendo remoto, muchas gracias
Great tips. I was wondering why the remote start wont work. Saw your video and then checked my hood and it was closed. But I popped it open anyway and closed again and now it's working. Thanks.
@@aussiebharata2564 I had it working but when I really needed remote start (outside was -20deg. F), it stopped again. Took it to the dealer and the service rep said press lock twice( in quick succession) then press remote start key. It has been working flawlessly ever since. It’s just weird because the user manual and online forums don’t say press lock twice.
Thank you boss , it worked like a charm on my 2020 honda city. Didnt beep when locking the car and when i looked under the hood the switch harness was disconected. Blessings 👍👍
had this exact issue, bridging worked, heard the alarm for the first time, cheers, might need a new hood latch as well, even when plugged in it doesn't work.
Thanks so much bruhh! My City's hood was not closed properly and I was trembling in worry to take my car for repair or something. It started now using key, thanks again!
Thanks for this! Brand new Honda Civic 22... 6 months old wouldn't remote start. Turns out my left rear passenger door was stuck and wouldn't open by the exterior handle (unlocked, but wouldn't open until I got inside and manually relocked and then unlocked it to open it from the inside). Now everything is working as before. Like you said, my anti-theft was working so it was likely a door, trunk or hood not closed. Also, mine made clicking noises on the locks when I reached a low speed before I found the issue (I imagine it is the car doing it's lock door routine when a certain speed had been reached)
Hey Luke, I am having the same issue with my 21 accord sport. What steps did you take to resolve your issue? My car is also locking the doors at low speeds ever since this issue started. My car doesn’t blink or make a sound when it locks. What should I do? Thank you!
@@alvinfabian6852 as I said, I had a door that was locked and not openable from the outside. I had to go inside and unlock it. If it’s like my issue, then one door, or latch is malfunctioning somehow. Check all possible lockable openings
@@coolhandpaulnewman yeah I did that. My back passenger door wasn’t locking with the rest so I manually locked it and after that all the locks were in sync and everything starting working again. Thanks
Thanks for sharing the video. It is tremendously helpful!. Do you mind sharing the part# or the name of the part you replaced? I assume you did not replace the whole hood lock assembly?
thanks bro for the video. this troubleshoot works for my 2016 honda hrv having the same issue. finally i can now sleep soundly at night, as i already find the solution to the locking issue. getting it fixed asap, as i will need to find a replacement hood latch in singapore and get it fixed diy style!!! cheers
my 2004 CRV has the same problem, I will try to buy a new lock. hope to solve the problem. thanks a lot, due. best wishes, BTW, it might be a lock problem on 5 doors also.
Thank you for this video. I got to the part to disconnect the cable, used a paper clip (wow those two holes were tiny at the connector) but still have the same issue. Do you think I need to use a copper wire instead to bridge the sensor? Thank you again!
Previously, my 2021 Honda hatchback was functioning, but now it is not working. Upon inspecting the hood latch, I noticed the absence of a connector in the lock. I believe the garage that serviced my vehicle may have neglected to reinstall it, or perhaps they deliberately removed it. Could you please guide me on where to locate the connector within the hood? I intend to examine if there is an unplugged cable in that area.
Thanks, I was wondering why nothing was happening, so I check the hood trunk and realized that one of my back door was unlock, and I didn't notice this for almost an hour, because I was turning the car on to check the display, but not the engine, only when you turn the engine on then it tells you that a back door is open.
Thanks, I know someone who drove a car with an unlocked hood for a bit😂. It was the lack of answer back that made us find out that the hood had been unlocked.
Before going so deep, make sure manually lock and unlock doors lockers. That's was my problem. I just changed the remote battery, but it didn't work. I checked 4 doors, the rear door and front hood. My right rear door lock was steel locked. I opened manually after that remote was fine.
Thanks for this video! My Honda civic 2014s' alarm kept going off so I disconnected the sensor but, Will it keep going off still know that it doesn't sense that the hood latch sensor?
If it's going off as described, it sounds like some partial contact in the circuit for the alarm. I'm not sure of the schematics for your car, but I'd start with inspecting, testing and cleaning the fuse/relay (as appropriate) in the circuit. Also inspect the wiring and other connections. Inspect and clean the grounds too. The alarm will keep going off, though silently.
Hi boss! Thanks for this amazing video. I have a somewhat different issue with my driver side back door and remote start won’t work. It seems all the doors lock fine but when I open the driver door, for some reason the rear door of the driver side is indicated as opened on the dashboard. However, when I close the driver door, the rear door indicator also goes off. I can remotely lock all doors and none will open when I manually try to open them, but the remote start won’t work. I have a feeling, this is because of the rear door acting up. Any idea what the issue might be? And I got a mechanic to fix a car alarm system recently and this started happening. No doubt they may have tweaked something mistakenly in there.
Thanks for the compliment! Yea sounds like the aftermarket alarm system may be interfering with the native anti-theft system. Makes sense to start troubleshooting from there. Maybe revert to original, test remote start etc and see.
my honda grace 2018 hybrid suddenly stop accepting the key fob lock/unlock feature. it only detects when i put the fob on the start button. how to fix?
Thanks for this video. I have a 2015 Accord that was involved in a front end collision and the anti theft light does not flash and no flashing lights when I press lock on the fob and no beep. Replaced the hood latch just like you did because after watching your video I found out whoever repaired the car put a hood latch that doesnt have alarm sensor. So I replaced it with correct latch but still doesnt work. Horn does work and car beeps if I get out and walk away with the fob but alarm does not seem to work. Could it be a fuse or something? Any suggestions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
May be the wiring from the socket up? Try this. Bridge the connection at the socket for the hood latch, lock the car. Then pull off the bridge. If the alarm goes off, that circuit is good. If it doesn't, there's a breech post the socket.

Very informative. I have a little bit different issue. When I lock by the fob or at the door handle button, the beep became very very faint (low). What could be the cause for this and more importantly, what would the fix be for this?
Is it very cold in your area? That's one reason that can cause this. Other than that, you can inspect the buzzer to see that it's not clogged with mud, snow etc. It's under the rear bumper on the driver side. You won't need to dismantle anything. Just have a peep. You can lock the car as you try to locate it. It's black with an electrical connector coming out of it.
@@DIYAutoworksNG it’s the middle of summer. There are no cold days now. I found the unit but did not remove it. There doesn’t seem to be any unusual dirt on it. Can the part be purchased from a Honda dealer? I think if so, it would be very easy to replace myself.
I have the same problem with my 2017 Honda Accord LX, it don’t have the remote start but when I try to lock my car it won’t blink or either give any sound. It was on an accident like yours in the video. When I was checking the hood latch, it looks like the connector on the latch will move exactly like yours. I did change the latch with the new one but the problem still persists. Any suggestions? Thank you!
Did you try to bridge the hood latch switch directly and test? You may have to check for continuity by using a multimeter on the connector for the switch. Just to make sure there's no short in the wiring.
@@DIYAutoworksNG I feel like there is something wrong with the connector or say sensor connected to my car. I tried using paper clip but it didn’t work and I thought maybe I didn’t touch the wire inside because it was so tiny and hard to connect. While using the multimeter, do I pick (certain) amp to test it out ?
You will just set the multimeter to the continuity setting. If you Google "multimeter continuity symbol", you should see what the setting symbol looks like. Then, plug the probes of the multimeter one in each of the holes of the connector. It should have continuity (give off an audible beep) if the circuit is complete and there's no short in the wiring. If there's no continuity, you would need to trace the wiring/circuit components to get to the short. Hope this helps
Did you get it to work? On my old Honda Civic sometimes I would slam the seat belt buckle in-between the driver's side door. It would push the black button of the little switch in that's in the door opening in (kind of like a button on a refrigerator). This would cause the doors to not make that beep to let me know that the lights were left on. You can check all of those black buttons in-between your car doors are sticking out properly and not pushed in. If pushed in you can first try and pull it back out by hand. Or you may need to get a screwdriver to loosen the screw that holds the switch inplace, straighten the switch back out and tighten the screw back. Please let us TH-camrs know what happens.
My car was remotely broken into or hacked today and so far I went through the first option making sure everything is closed but I’m still not getting a beep feed back or anti theft light flashing. At first glance everything seemed fine with the hood latch but I’ll have to double check tomorrow. Also there was no damage to the hood it seemed like since they were able to get into my car anyways without breaking windows. Any tips? Car hasn’t had any collisions so I can’t see it being that latch. Thank you
Sorry to hear your car was broken into. Any sign of forced entry? Just be sure to check the door switches in the door jam area. Just go step by step through those items I pointed out, you should find the culprit.
@@DIYAutoworksNG everything was clean as far as them getting into the car. No broken windows or signs of something being pried open. But I’ll check the door switches thank you
My 2019 pilot LX remote starter does not work on cold engin but when the engine has been warmed up the remote starter starts to work.. do you think replacing this part will fixed it?
Hi, i just wanted to ask about the same problem everyone else is having. My car blinks on unlock function but does not blink or make sounds on lock function. I have checked the doors, closed them, one by one and it also gave me the beep sound that its closed. Tried the hood as well and had it closed shut. Now, it was actually my first time in a year or so ever opening the hood. Is it possible that the pins of the hood as you mentioned in the video be the problem when the hood was never opened recently? The problem started just 2 days ago randomly. I just wanted to know before calling and taking it in
@@DIYAutoworksNG Thanks for the reply. I have tried that manually as well and seemed to not work unfortunately. Update: Ive noticed that the my back doors are not opening when i open driver's door. The setting for that is one and i have tried enabling and disabling
I have this exact issue but I'm scheduled for an engine oil changed next Tuesday and they told me they'll gonna check it also. Just changed the batteries today for the 2 fobs and still have this issue
I have all these issues with my 2017 Honda CRV Touring. I just bought a new hood latch. Replaced it and I'm still experiencing these issues. What else could it be?
Just go through all the points flagged in the video. Be sure your hood isn't open. Also, sometimes it just stops working by itself, disabling and re-enabling it gets it back up.
Give a shout-out if this worked for you!
Remote start, power tailgate from the key fob and lock answer back doesn't work on my 2022 Honda CRV :-(
If you rule out all the culprits I covered in the video, I believe you'd get to the cause.
wow it just worked for me, My 2016 civic x Turbo wasn't giving beep sound on locking & and no remote start functionality but after watching this vlog I checked my door locks and found my front passenger side lock wasn't moving upon locking / unlocking so I manually locked/ unlocked it once AND EVERYTHING started FUNCTIONING 😀

I actually bought the whole hood latch. I got a used one. Cleaned and lubed it up and it looked brand new.
thanks bro for the video. this troubleshoot works for my 2016 honda hrv having the same issue. finally i can now sleep soundly at night, as i already find the solution to the locking issue. getting it fixed asap, as i will need to find a replacement hood latch in singapore and get it fixed diy style!!! cheers
Super glad this worked for you!
Thanks bridging the sensor just worked for my 2018 accord
You're welcome! You just owned Honda 😎
Great video it works on my Honda Crv 2019 i had the same issue
my 2004 CRV has the same problem, I will try to buy a new lock. hope to solve the problem. thanks a lot, due. best wishes, BTW, it might be a lock problem on 5 doors also.
Thanks. Yep, it can be a door lock issue.
As always great video @Piyke. Well done.
Thanks!
Thanks for your video, my plug was not connected
You're welcome! Many people have reported just having to reconnect the plug.
Thank you for this video. I got to the part to disconnect the cable, used a paper clip (wow those two holes were tiny at the connector) but still have the same issue. Do you think I need to use a copper wire instead to bridge the sensor? Thank you again!
Yea. You just have to be sure whatever you use makes a good connection i.e. bridge.
All the best!
Thankyou Man ,,, your video really helps me ,,,
Great
Previously, my 2021 Honda hatchback was functioning, but now it is not working. Upon inspecting the hood latch, I noticed the absence of a connector in the lock. I believe the garage that serviced my vehicle may have neglected to reinstall it, or perhaps they deliberately removed it. Could you please guide me on where to locate the connector within the hood? I intend to examine if there is an unplugged cable in that area.
Thanks, I was wondering why nothing was happening, so I check the hood trunk and realized that one of my back door was unlock, and I didn't notice this for almost an hour, because I was turning the car on to check the display, but not the engine, only when you turn the engine on then it tells you that a back door is open.
Thanks, I know someone who drove a car with an unlocked hood for a bit😂. It was the lack of answer back that made us find out that the hood had been unlocked.
I can confirm hood latch was disconnected, now alarm anti theft light is on and answer back is working on lock Key press 2019 accord sport 🤜🏾
Excellent 🤛🏼
Thank you!!!! It was just the connector unpluged for me!!!
Great. Someone must have worked there and forgot to plug it
Genius 🎉thanks a lot sir
Helped me solve my issue! Thanks!
Glad it helped.
Before going so deep, make sure manually lock and unlock doors lockers. That's was my problem. I just changed the remote battery, but it didn't work. I checked 4 doors, the rear door and front hood. My right rear door lock was steel locked. I opened manually after that remote was fine.
Good point. Thanks!
Fantastic Video Excellent Knowledge Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, thanks!
Nice work piyke our own naija scotty KILMER
😂
Thank you for this video !!!! Much appreciation ❤
Thanks!
Thanks for this video! My Honda civic 2014s' alarm kept going off so I disconnected the sensor but, Will it keep going off still know that it doesn't sense that the hood latch sensor?
If it's going off as described, it sounds like some partial contact in the circuit for the alarm. I'm not sure of the schematics for your car, but I'd start with inspecting, testing and cleaning the fuse/relay (as appropriate) in the circuit. Also inspect the wiring and other connections. Inspect and clean the grounds too.
The alarm will keep going off, though silently.
Hi boss! Thanks for this amazing video. I have a somewhat different issue with my driver side back door and remote start won’t work.
It seems all the doors lock fine but when I open the driver door, for some reason the rear door of the driver side is indicated as opened on the dashboard. However, when I close the driver door, the rear door indicator also goes off.
I can remotely lock all doors and none will open when I manually try to open them, but the remote start won’t work. I have a feeling, this is because of the rear door acting up. Any idea what the issue might be?
And I got a mechanic to fix a car alarm system recently and this started happening. No doubt they may have tweaked something mistakenly in there.
Thanks for the compliment!
Yea sounds like the aftermarket alarm system may be interfering with the native anti-theft system. Makes sense to start troubleshooting from there. Maybe revert to original, test remote start etc and see.
my honda grace 2018 hybrid suddenly stop accepting the key fob lock/unlock feature. it only detects when i put the fob on the start button. how to fix?
Great Video !! That's What I want to know.. Thank You
You're welcome!
Thanks man! This has been helpful
Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching!
You were SUPER helpful thanks a lot!!!
Great to hear!
Thanks for this video. I have a 2015 Accord that was involved in a front end collision and the anti theft light does not flash and no flashing lights when I press lock on the fob and no beep. Replaced the hood latch just like you did because after watching your video I found out whoever repaired the car put a hood latch that doesnt have alarm sensor. So I replaced it with correct latch but still doesnt work. Horn does work and car beeps if I get out and walk away with the fob but alarm does not seem to work. Could it be a fuse or something? Any suggestions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
May be the wiring from the socket up? Try this. Bridge the connection at the socket for the hood latch, lock the car. Then pull off the bridge. If the alarm goes off, that circuit is good. If it doesn't, there's a breech post the socket.
thank god for your video 😆
Glad you found it useful!
Great info👌🏾
Thanks, mate!
So thorough! So kind sir. 👍🏽👍🏽
Much appreciated!
شكرا لك
لقد كنت أعاني من مشكلة عدم إغلاق الأبواب آليا عند الإبتعاد عن السيارة
لدي سيارة هوندا أكورد 2018 2.0T و كانت لدي المشكلة التي ذكرتها أعلاه
و عندما شاهدت الفيديو
و رأيتك تفتح غطاء المحرك تذكرت أنني قمت بتغيير ضاغط مكيف السيارة و كذلك المكثف
تذكرت أن العامل قام بفك قفل غطاء المحرك وفصل فيشة مستشعر غطاء المحرك و عندما قام بإعادته كما كان
كانت أقفال الأبواب تعمل تلقائيا عند الإبتعاد عن السيارة
إلا أنه و بعد أكثر من شهر حدث أن فيشة مستشعر غطاء المحرك إنزلقت و أصبحت الكهرباء لا تصل للمستشعر
و لم أكن أعلم ما هي المشكلة
و في يوم ممطر تفاجأت أن أقفال الأبواب لا تعمل آليا عند الإبتعاد عن السيارة
و بعد مشاهدتي للفيديو ذهبت للسيارة و قمت بفحص فيشة المستشعر و جدتها غير ثابتة كما ينبغي لها أن تكون
حيث قمت بفصلها و إعادتها مرة أخرى و قمت بالضغط عليها حتى شعرت و سمعت صوت غلق الفيشة و تأكد أنها أصبحت ثابتة
شكرا لك للمرة ثانية
You're welcome
Sir where did u find that clip remover great video
Thanks for thr compliment. Trim/clip is available on Amazon.
Thank you bro!
Any time!
Tks ji❤
Thanks a bunch, i have that exact problem
You're welcome. Glad the video is of help!
Thank you!!
Great video man, thanks a lot.....
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thanks.
Amazing job bro thanks
Many thanks!
Very informative. I have a little bit different issue. When I lock by the fob or at the door handle button, the beep became very very faint (low). What could be the cause for this and more importantly, what would the fix be for this?
Is it very cold in your area? That's one reason that can cause this. Other than that, you can inspect the buzzer to see that it's not clogged with mud, snow etc. It's under the rear bumper on the driver side. You won't need to dismantle anything. Just have a peep. You can lock the car as you try to locate it. It's black with an electrical connector coming out of it.
@@DIYAutoworksNG it’s the middle of summer. There are no cold days now. I found the unit but did not remove it. There doesn’t seem to be any unusual dirt on it. Can the part be purchased from a Honda dealer? I think if so, it would be very easy to replace myself.
I'm sure it will be online on sites like hondapartscheap.com. Good luck.
It really helped me 👍🏻
Thanks
@@DIYAutoworksNG can you please tell me the outside temperature sensor Location (ambient)
The ambient temp sensor is in front of the condenser; it's black in colour with a tapered end. It's beneath the hood latch.
Thank you sir 🙏
Helped. Ty
You're welcome
Thanks man.. it works!!!!
Super glad it worked for you too!
I have the same problem with my 2017 Honda Accord LX, it don’t have the remote start but when I try to lock my car it won’t blink or either give any sound. It was on an accident like yours in the video. When I was checking the hood latch, it looks like the connector on the latch will move exactly like yours. I did change the latch with the new one but the problem still persists. Any suggestions? Thank you!
Did you try to bridge the hood latch switch directly and test? You may have to check for continuity by using a multimeter on the connector for the switch. Just to make sure there's no short in the wiring.
Hope you ruled out settings too?
@@DIYAutoworksNG I feel like there is something wrong with the connector or say sensor connected to my car. I tried using paper clip but it didn’t work and I thought maybe I didn’t touch the wire inside because it was so tiny and hard to connect. While using the multimeter, do I pick (certain) amp to test it out ?
You will just set the multimeter to the continuity setting. If you Google "multimeter continuity symbol", you should see what the setting symbol looks like. Then, plug the probes of the multimeter one in each of the holes of the connector. It should have continuity (give off an audible beep) if the circuit is complete and there's no short in the wiring. If there's no continuity, you would need to trace the wiring/circuit components to get to the short. Hope this helps
Did you get it to work? On my old Honda Civic sometimes I would slam the seat belt buckle in-between the driver's side door. It would push the black button of the little switch in that's in the door opening in (kind of like a button on a refrigerator). This would cause the doors to not make that beep to let me know that the lights were left on. You can check all of those black buttons in-between your car doors are sticking out properly and not pushed in. If pushed in you can first try and pull it back out by hand. Or you may need to get a screwdriver to loosen the screw that holds the switch inplace, straighten the switch back out and tighten the screw back. Please let us TH-camrs know what happens.
Thanks so much boss 🤝👍
You're welcome
My car was remotely broken into or hacked today and so far I went through the first option making sure everything is closed but I’m still not getting a beep feed back or anti theft light flashing. At first glance everything seemed fine with the hood latch but I’ll have to double check tomorrow. Also there was no damage to the hood it seemed like since they were able to get into my car anyways without breaking windows. Any tips? Car hasn’t had any collisions so I can’t see it being that latch. Thank you
Sorry to hear your car was broken into. Any sign of forced entry?
Just be sure to check the door switches in the door jam area. Just go step by step through those items I pointed out, you should find the culprit.
@@DIYAutoworksNG everything was clean as far as them getting into the car. No broken windows or signs of something being pried open. But I’ll check the door switches thank you
My 2019 pilot LX remote starter does not work on cold engin but when the engine has been warmed up the remote starter starts to work.. do you think replacing this part will fixed it?
Does it crank and not start or it doesn't crank at all in cold weather?
Hi, i just wanted to ask about the same problem everyone else is having. My car blinks on unlock function but does not blink or make sounds on lock function. I have checked the doors, closed them, one by one and it also gave me the beep sound that its closed. Tried the hood as well and had it closed shut. Now, it was actually my first time in a year or so ever opening the hood. Is it possible that the pins of the hood as you mentioned in the video be the problem when the hood was never opened recently? The problem started just 2 days ago randomly. I just wanted to know before calling and taking it in
Try disabling the setting and re-enabling it again.
@@DIYAutoworksNG Thanks for the reply. I have tried that manually as well and seemed to not work unfortunately.
Update:
Ive noticed that the my back doors are not opening when i open driver's door. The setting for that is one and i have tried enabling and disabling
What about one door not working for the Auto Unlock this fix this as well ?
One door not working is likely the actuator for that door lock...
I have this exact issue but I'm scheduled for an engine oil changed next Tuesday and they told me they'll gonna check it also. Just changed the batteries today for the 2 fobs and still have this issue
Thanks for watching. The cause won't be beyond the causes shared in the video.
I have all these issues with my 2017 Honda CRV Touring. I just bought a new hood latch. Replaced it and I'm still experiencing these issues. What else could it be?
Be sure to walk through the rest of the causes.
@@DIYAutoworksNG Thanks for responding. I have done so, still doesn't work.
@@mikegarganis5238 Did you find a way to fix it?
My car is new. No accident. Suddenly the remote start and lock blinking indicators and sound not working. Thoughts?
Just go through all the points flagged in the video. Be sure your hood isn't open. Also, sometimes it just stops working by itself, disabling and re-enabling it gets it back up.
