[@jxhern22]

A follow up of the dealer program and startup along w setting up and using hondata would be very nice. Great content, keep it up.

The USDM CL9 tsx is an interestin car. In South Africa we got an Accord CL9 in 2 flavours the Type S and the Executive. Type S had not extras like heated seats, power foldin mirrors and Sun roof and it came with the Type R lip kit . The Executive car had no lip kit , but had all the extras as standard. I see the USDM cl9 is a mix of these

[@justanotherej6655]

On FlashPro they dont come pre-loaded with a base tune. Your supposed to go in and upload the factory basemap (or what ever map you want) for your application and upload to the ecu. There is currently a basemap on there for a 07-08 US MT TSX that should should work flawless for you since you have the Ignition Switch with Key.

[@LATOMMYLA]

The car didn't start due to the immobilizer, when I cranked the car, I never even installed the flashpro yet.

[@7r0j4n]

on these tsx there is a hvac water leak that occurs right above the ecu my friend had same car and a Hondata it fried the Hondata, needed new ecu keep an eye out for that

[@LATOMMYLA]

Thanks for the tip!

[@DanielGarcia-fp8vm]

Most locksmith can program the immobilizer to your keys just call around

[@neilkennedycalantoc7286]

U can use snap on scanner to adopt your ecu …

[@kentbailey9065]

Adopt how?

[@stevenduong3490]

Where did you purchase the CAN harness & ECU? I’ve been looking to do the same as well. I need a manual ECU as well & it’s been hard to find.

[@LATOMMYLA]

Hi, I purchased both from pherable.bet

[@AdrianLopez-gp9yz]

What are your wheels and tires setup when you can man I have been trying to find a good fitment for mine when you can please

[@bigcheese4332]

Hell yeah

[@natedostalik3538]

I may just opt for the serge bo tune tbh, this seems like a ton of work

[@CL9k24a3]

just be careful if you do header no cat and intake car will run lean and on 95oct eur - 91 us you are at high risk of engine damage as that flash doesn't read lambda. Also ignition timing table is bad.

[@2008acuraguy]

any idea what would be wrong with my 08 TSX? Check engine light is on, abs, brake light, immobilizer light on. Just did a tune up, new starter, new fuel pump, new battery but still only cranks but no start. Installed a new immobilizer and ecu but still have the same problem. Thank you so much.

[@karmasworldd]

hey did you ever find what the issue was ?

[@Jaydogg209]

Would I have to remove the stock steering wheel to install the ignition? And what’s the deal with the ecu? Are these plug n play ecus on eBay not going to work half the time?

[@LATOMMYLA]

Yes you need to remove the steering wheel to make it easier, and the ecu needs to get programmed to your immobilizer.

[@Jaydogg209]

@LATOMMYLA yes I see but when the ecu says it's plug and play with emobilizer and keys it should have no issues. I ask because idk if you were able to tell if the Facebook seller sold you one that wasn't paired and maybe even not the same car.

[@Jaydogg209]

Another question. Have you ever met or heard anyone getting a 04 j32a3 bard for a 2004 accord? The swap is already in and drives fine on the stock ecu but I'm trying to source a mt ecu from a 2004. I have a year till my smog test 🤣

[@alexdondada]

might of missed it but was a calibration loaded onto the hondata before cranking?

[@LATOMMYLA]

Nope, I didn’t have hondata installed on the ecu yet

[@natedostalik3538]

Which headunit do you have?

[@mayk3lll]

I thought you could disable immobiliser on hondata

[@LATOMMYLA]

You cannot

[@Yothatzhim]

How much is the dealer going to charge for the program

[@LATOMMYLA]

Not gonna be cheap forsure

[@benrios9643]

My local dealer in Tucson Az quoted me $488

[@Dcdc956]

Not worth it for just going bolts on a tsx, that’s for sure

[@Jaydogg209]

@Ben Rios is that even when you supply the ecu and and ignition? Or was the quote for any parts besides the reprogram?

[@nickvera3109]

Still slow 🎉
