1. Check Compatibility: Ensure that the key fob you have is compatible with your Honda Civic model and year.
2. Turn On Ignition: Get into your car, close all the doors, and insert the existing working key fob into the ignition.
3. Turn Ignition On and Off: Turn the ignition to the "ON" position and then turn it off again quickly, without starting the engine. Repeat this step twice more, so you've turned "ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON" in quick succession.
4. Press Lock Button: After completing the above step, press and hold the "Lock" button on your new key fob for at least 1 second.
5. Press Unlock Button: While holding the "Lock" button, press the "Unlock" button and hold both buttons for at least 1 second.
6. Release Buttons: After holding both buttons for 1 second, release them simultaneously.
7. Test the Key Fob: Try using your newly programmed key fob to lock and unlock the car. If it works, the programming was successful.
8. Repeat for Additional Key Fobs: If you have multiple key fobs, repeat steps 4 to 7 to program them as well.
It's important to note that some Honda Civic models might have different key fob programming procedures. Always refer to your vehicle's specific owner's manual or contact an authorized Honda dealership for assistance.
