Immobilizer Reprogram

The document summarizes the process for reprogramming an immobilizer on a 2002-2004 Honda RSX using a Honda diagnostic tool. The technician enters the vehicle's VIN number into a desktop PC connected to the tool to retrieve a code. They then connect the tool to the vehicle's OBD2 port, enter the VIN, and select immobilizer reprogramming. The tool reads the key codes from the immobilizer and writes them to the ECU, matching the codes to the new VIN and allowing the vehicle to start.
