Keyless Transmitter Programming/Deleting-Manual Method: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Acura TL and 2007 Acura TL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: The keyless transmitter attaches to the ignition key and is separate from the immobilizer transponder. It is not necessary to use the HDS when replacing or deleting an existing transmitter.

Adding a key (transponder) can only be done with the HDS. If the key being added has a new remote transmitter, it can be programmed with the HDS at the end of the "ADD A KEY" function (see SYSTEM CHECK ).
If one or all keys (transponders) are lost, the remote transmitters must be deleted manually. This will assure that all of the old keyless transmitters have been cleared from the keyless receiver units memory.
When replacing the keyless receiver unit, you must have all of the remote transmitters that need to be programmed to the car.
The keyless receiver unit can only store 5 keyless transmitters.
During programming, pushing the same remote button 5 times will delete all other remotes.
