I would like to say thank you for this video. As I was watching it and listening to you and watching the green key light and your engine light flash on your civics dash, just like mine was.. . it all came to me and I had my car started and running in 15 minutes. Thank you Sir!

Much appreciate this video. Thank you. Just for clarification - once someone has the brake code, can that same code be used every time to bypass the immobilizer? It is not like a "one time use" code or anything is it? It sounds like just acquiring the code is the hardest thing of all.
@JackofAllCarbinc10 күн бұрын
yes that code can be used every time but every single key turns off it will have to be redone....i honestly do not know if theres a limit to how many times it can be used but i know in my case i used it about 40 to do video and test and get to shop so i dont believe theres a limit but i just would not use that as my fix forever.

@@JackofAllCarbinc I appreciate the feedback. I am hoping to never deal with this problem to begin with. I guess I should get my own code just in case.

Hey man awesome! Mine sometimes it start normally and then after a few days it would be back to that green key, so i sure could take it to a destination but i wanna fix it for real, already bring two mecanics and none knew the problem, also i brought an electrician to check it with a scanner and still couldnt find any issue, also the keys chip working fine said one locksmith with a scanner, so you may know whata the issue? Pretty please! Already spend alot
@JackofAllCarbinc2 ай бұрын
I would have the locksmith reprogram your immobilizer and cut you a new key, if its intermittent the computer will rad no issue when its starting. Sadly its trial and error but if you already had the locksmith there i would just rekey and reprogram the immobilizer. Also checking fuses and relays but if you had an electrician do that next step i could think of would be that. Keep us updated if possible in case you find a diferent solution.

I have the same with my Honda but my battery is also drained and its brand new. Do you thinks these 2 problems are related or the drained battery is coming from somewhere else
@JackofAllCarbinc8 ай бұрын
if you have the green light and its a new battery ...issue is the immobilizer, First get that resolved then you can take your battery to get recharged, I had same issue since the car kept cranking and not powering on it drained my battery since car never turned on when the issue started and didnt allow the alternator to recharge battery. It can be a possibility that the alternator also went out but if it was me I would ......jump the car or get recharged then fix immobilizer if green light goes off but battery still dies then its either a bad battery or alternator.

Im not clear on something. Why didn't you just have the locksmith come to your house to make the new key? Why did you have to hassle with Honda dealers to get this brake code?
@JackofAllCarbincАй бұрын
Hi....Yes that is an option if you can get a mobile locksmith....Only reason i did not do that is due to cost. You can also just get towed or? but I made video for most people on a tight budget. A mobile locksmith would have upped th eprice 200 and towing it cost about 120. The brake code method can be used in an emergency or can give you a week or two to get the funds to fix problem if you just need to get car started to get to work or?

i believe he has to reset the immobilizer first then reprogram key...I had problems with honda too.... i got the run around telling me i had to contact honda corporate...blah blah . I went thru 3 different dealers and finally 1 gave me the code. It was the dealer I had previously serviced car and they had my vehicle on record showing it was under my name......Its not easy but its doable.....I had to convince them i could not get my car towed and needed code so i can take to them to repair. They were very hesitant but finally one manager gave it to me. Please keep us posted.

@@brittanyjeffrandolph7497 lol I kinda thought you were talking about that or was someone trolling but the answer to that is absolutely not. The brake code is not really known to 99 percent of people. Believe it or not some Honda techs had no idea what i was talking about when i called the dealer but the older guys /managers know exactly what that is. Every honda and acura had these codes which allows honda to bypass the immobilizer for reasons like failure or back then if car payments were not made the dealer can repo the car without the need of a key. Of course that code will not be given to just anyone, you MUST prove that you are the legal owner of vehicle and have no debt on car. Radio code is completely diferent that only will unlock the access to your radio.
