After replacing the battery on my vehicle the car would not start. The problem is that in the process of changing the battery a fuse was blown. The fuse was in charge of the immobilization system.That is the system that is designed to read the ignition key and make sure that it is in fact the proper key for the vehicle. This is part of the antitheft system. Vehicles can blow fuses for several reasons. It could be a short in the wiring, moisture issues, or very commonly after working on your vehicle. Replacing the battery, replacing the starter, replacing the alternator, replacing the fuel pump, etc.

@@fugegamerguy Seriously? Never mind that you're factually mistaken about what the English word "few" means, it's $2 more than the $0 _you_ gave. According to the Federal Reserve report "Economic Well Being of US Households in 2020 Dealing with Unexpected Expenses," 36% of Americans don't have enough money to cover a $400 emergency expense. I can only imagine that number has risen over the last 3-4 years. It might not be much for you, but for a lot of folks it's not insignificant. Considering that viewing a KZread video is *_free_* in the first place, it's an infinite % more than was required. For what it's worth, Oxford defines "few" as: pronoun 1. a small number of people or things. "I will recount a few of the stories told me" 2. used to emphasize how small a number of people or things is. "few thought to challenge these assumptions" Is $2 not "a small number of" dollars? If $2 is actually a _lot_ of money for you, post your cashapp and I'll send you $2. TL;DR: Yes, it _literally_ is.
this happened to me at the store and immediately I tried my valet key (normal non remote key [a.k.a. backup key]), and I fixed it asap in about 30 seconds and never had a problem again thank God. have a good day
Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤ you saved us$$$ we didn't have at the time! You're a great person ❤
Thank you so much!!! I got stranded outside of my city (it's 9:15pm and dark as hell) for a class I was teaching that just ended. It's cold and pouring rain, I've had a rough fucking day and I'm so relieved I didn't have to get a $300 tow and that my car works again. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

This works. Just had a mechanic looked at my 04 pilot an they was trying to change my fuel pump but thank to this video I just saved money I didn't have to spend
2006, Honda Element. The car doesn't start. The blinking green key comes on and doesn't go off, I checked the under-hood fuse box. #6 ECU 15 amp fuse was bad. Replacement fixed the issue. Thank you all for your time and post. This all helped me to diagnose the issue. I truly appreciate this.
I literally spent the last two hours trying to figure out why my Pilot wouldn’t start. I thought I checked every fuse and relay until I was about to give up. I turn the car on and see the green key flashing and then found your video. Thanks for saving my sanity. Great video.
I was having the same problem today on my Honda Freed. Fortunately my 8yrs old son had told me that I left the dashboard lights on and he put them off. I noticed the battery might have gone down. I recharged it and the problem was solved. Though your video is very informative. A thumbs up from Kenya.
You are still saving owners money. I misread the obd 4 to 9 jumper and blew the same fuse as yours. What was puzzling about it was the engine acted like it wasn’t getting fuel. It would crank over just fine. It had nothing to do with a fuel pump relay or a broken key fob. Thanks again for sharing!!
Thank you so much ,,you’re brillant I got stuck under rain and temperature bellow 37 ,and my accord doesn’t stop honking for 5 minutes , I couldn’t do nothing ,,the key signe shows on dashboard,car battery almost dead until I checked your video and I changed the fuse like you said and suddenly the car is on❤❤❤❤.. Much love brother ..you the best Big shout out from nyc
We had this happen on our 2008 Honda Pilot on one of the keys, but it was starting fine with the Honda factory key and keyfob. What had happened was, we ordered a new keyfob shell for the broken keyfob and it turns out there is a little transponder chip that you have to transfer to the new keyfob. This video helped me track that down so thanks!
Spot on. Tested every fuse, all checked out. Pulled the ACG S, cleaned and plugged back in. All is working, must have just been loose. Never would have found this otherwise. Saved me $$ and headache. Have a beer on me.

I have a 2014 Honda Pilot and found your vid. I checked the fuse and even got a brand new one and didn't solve problem. Then I decided to try jumping the battery with my other car. BAM! It started.

Omg thank you 🙏🏿 I just purchased a 2006 Honda Pilot and I went to leave the gas station and it wasn’t starting up the car sounded good and was running quietly and perfect then I noticed the green light flashing key symbol And immediately looked it up 30 minutes later after loosing my little fuse pullers …. I finally was able to get it to turn over to bad I was only sold one key with this vehicle thank you anyway you save me a lot of trouble I haven’t renewed my AAA yet so I don’t know what I would’ve done
Worked for me, thanks a million man! I've been going crazy pulling my hair out and firing the parts canon. Replaced fuel pump because I'm pretty sure I needed to do that anyway, replaced crank sensor I'm pretty sure needlessly, was about to consider replacing injectors once I discovered they weren't firing. Spent some time and money I didn't need to, I didn't even know a 98 Honda had an RFID key system. Spent 10 minutes this morning to pull the ECU and pop that sucker off the board and my car started on the first try!
Thanks for the video. In my case it was #8 15A fuse (FI-ECU), Honda Odyssey 2005. First I was on the wrong track (IMMO forgot my key codes, etc.). After seeing your video decided to check all the fuses. Saved me some big bucks. Above all probably saved me a day at least (dealing the locksmith, dealer, etc.)...

I had the same problem and found this other guy on KZread. Key lights was blinking green and no start at all. Had a few mobile mechanics locksmith and at the end it turn to be the starter. Key was fine. When it fist started the car didn't turn on one day and we assumed the key was the problem. Good luck!
Thank you for your free educational serve that makes peace of mind .
Thank you Sooo much for that, it fixed my problem ("the green flashing key"). Mine was a little different. My wife bought my daughter some decorations for her car. One was a jewel-be-speckled ring to go around the ignition ring. When you mentioned the sensor under the ignition key switch I thought that could be the problem because she just put the décor on yesterday and hadn't tried to go anywhere yet, and this never happened before Once again thank you very much, you probably saved me $$$$, I was planning to take the car to our mechanic tomorrow to get it fixed. God Bless You.

You saved me man. I found the chip in my key laying on the ground and didn’t know what it was until you mentioned it 😭
I had this issue with a 2004 Honda Pilot, but it was intermittent. I found that a tap on the steering wheel allowed the car to start, but that was a temporary fix. After going through all possibilities, including the immobilizer ring suggestion which was ruled out because Honda has discontinued offering this part, I took the car to a mechanic and explained the business with the tapping of the wheel. He called back in an hour or so to inform me the problem was fixed. Apparently there is a little relay box located at the base of the steering column, and by tapping that he was able to start the car. He replaced this unit and no more problem.
You Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. That fixed it!

Thanks man! Good info! Just bout a crank-no-start 98 Accord, it's the first Honda I've had new enough to have that "feature" (last one was a 92). I didn't know something that miniscule could cause a no-start on a car almost 30 years old. I just got done replacing the crank position sensor in 25F weather and am about to start pulling my hair out. I had no idea the flashing key light was a warning. Swapping the fuse out for a new one didn't do anything, but at least now I have something specific to diagnose.

After reading 199 comments, I was amazed to see someone mention a decorative diamond stick ring being the culprit!! That's the first thing I'm gonna pry off in the morning! I'm gonna guess that even this valet key has a chip that needs to communicate with the system. Fingers crossed for this!

It worked. My 2004 Honda Civic had the flashing key light problem until I replaced the 15 amp fuse for “small light” as indicated in the user manual chart for fuses under the hood. It was number 2 on the chart and and I used one of the spare fuses in the fuse box. Before that I had to turn the key around to stop the flashing and even then I had trouble starting the car.

I am up in the cold north and my dear little 2004 Honda with very few miles, turned over but wouldn't catch. I saw the flashing green light, looked it up in the manual, called the helpful Honda dealership and they said it was electrical and needed to be reprogrammed. Called CAA to have it towed as it was in the way of the plow's route. Then, I thought I'd look it up and see if there was any video on it. Sure enough, I found this one and even though my Honda is not the same year and the fuse boxes are not in the same location, I pulled a few things off and found it. Used my keys to pull out the 15 fuse where it had the initials for the fuel immobilizer, or at least I guessed something to that effect. With two keys, I pried the fuse in question out and easily accessed the spare, popped it in and the car turned over like a charm. Thank you "Check It Out"! I cancelled CAA and saved myself who knows how much as the dealership didn't have to look at it!

Thank you. My fuse didn't say that but it was still a blue 15. It was just dirty and not all the way pressed in
My dad has been dealing with this issue for THREE YEARS!! Trying everything under the sun with no luck. Countless hours, money down the drain, lots of frustration. Fixed it today!!! Secondary relay on the backside of the fuse box! Green light comes on now to start the car when needed! This secondary relay controls security, fuel pump & 5 other things I can’t remember. side note, we replaced the computer, main relay, immobilizer, switch & key, ect & nothing had worked until now. See countless pages, forums ect on this issue with little to no luck at the end. TRY THIS!!
I had the same issue being intermittent - pulled my ACG fuse #4 under the dash. It looks tarnished. I'm replacing and keeping fingers crossed.
Well, all that was wrong with mine was the tumblers. I watched a video showing that after you remove the ignition cylinder you can start the car with a flat head screwdriver. It did turn the motor a few times, but wouldn't crank. Suddenly the green key light started flashing and now nothing will turn. The little slot where I was turning the screwdriver also locked and wont turn. I think i caused more damage.
You just saved us tons of time and money!!
