Let’s get this car cranked, with not start.

And connect to Autel IM608, click

Diagnostics >> Honda >> Accept >> Automatic selection >> Read >> OK >> USA >> Yes >> Diagnosis >> Control unit >> IMMOBI

Keep ignition ON until the tester directs you to turn the ignition off.

The tester cannot program keys with a T5 stamped on the blade of the key or with the word ILCO on the plastic head. These keys can only be programmed with the ILCO key duplicator.

It’s 3rd immobilizer.

Immobilizer setup >> Special function >> Replace ECM/ PCM

This function does necessary registration for ECM/PCM replacement.

When the ECM/PCM is replaced, it is necessary to be recognized a code each other to the ECM/PCM and the immobilizer Control Unit-Receiver with the diagnostic tool. Also, the vehicle with Keyless Access System needs to be recognized a code each other to the ECM/PCM and Keyless Access Control Unit. Otherwise, the engine cannot be started.

After replacing the ECM/PCM and registering the keys, the new ECM/PCM must be checked for the latest program.
