Immo reflash

Post by Bard »

According to http://www.hondata.com/immobilizer.html
Acura Technician types your car's VIN number into their desktop PC connected to Honda
The desktop PC returns a code which allows the immobilizer to be reprogrammed for your VIN number.
What VIN is typed ? From my old ECU that lies in a box now :), or from the new one reflashed that i recieved from hondata ?
And after reprogramming immo if i reinsert my old ecu back, removing hondata dual harness, will the immo work, or i should again reprogramm immo ?

Do you have a dual adapter harness? Are you using the stock ECU from your vehicle still?

No. The stock ECU is in a table box now, but it can installed back if i`ll sell a car (cause i will sell it without dual harness).

The immobilizier was disabled by the reflash to the stock ecu and cannot be reprogrammed.

Just unplug the immobilizer in the steering column and the light will stop flashing.

No, the immobilizer cannot be used in this setup.
