Using the Abrites Diagnostics for Honda Key programming follows 2 main categories - key learning and all
keys lost.
1. For key learning all you need to do is to start the procedure and follow the onscreen instructions - this procedure adds one key to the vehicle and also keeps the original key (or keys) programmed to the car.
2. When you do all keys lost in a situation when the car has no working keys available the all keys lost procedure will add one key but will also remove all the existing keys from the car.
In this manner you will have only one working key. In order to add another key to the car you will need to open the key learning function and use the key you made in all keys lost in order to add a second key to the car.
The Abrites Diagnostics for Honda aims to make any procedure as simple as possible. Honda vehicles have two types of immobilizer systems and 2007 is the year which separates them from each other. The procedure to add keys or perform all keys lost situations is similar in both generations and for this reason Abrites dHioagnndoas atincds ftohre development team have made it as simple as possible to use with a simple onscreen guidance as to how each procedure is performed and what comes after what. The next screenshots show how the procedure looks like:
