Learning Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 Honda Odyssey, 2016 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and 2013 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Before doing the learning procedure:

  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Slide the front seats backward fully.
  3. Have someone who weighs about the same as the driver sit in the driver's seat.
  4. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC).
  5. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  7. Within 5 seconds, turn the headlights on (low beam) or turn the passing switch ON and OFF three times repeatedly, and leave them on.
    • If the headlights tilt down, then return to the original position, the initial position learning is complete.
    • If the headlights aiming do not move, go to step  1, and repeat the procedure.
