A: The Honda Remote Engine Starter System comes with a wiring harness specially designed for select Honda models that integrates your Immobilizer and Security System with the Remote Starter System. Aftermarket systems need to deactivate the Immobilizer and Security System, which leaves your vehicle unprotected.

Q: Why is the remote so big? A: The remote is designed as a two-way system to communicate with the vehicle within a 200-foot range. Other aftermarket systems operate within a 100-foot range. Q: Does the Honda Remote Starter System function differently than aftermarket versions? A: Yes, the system functions differently in the following ways: • Unlike aftermarket versions, the Honda system shuts the engine off when you unlock the vehicle. You must restart the vehicle, which provides additional security and safety. • The key fob is deactivated when the Remote Engine Starter is in use, which means you have to start and stop the engine with the Remote Engine Starter before you can unlock the doors. • Starting and stopping the engine requires pressing two buttons to help avoid accidental operation. • Unlike the aftermarket versions, you can only attempt to remotely start the engine one time, providing additional safety. You must wait a minimum of 10 minutes (it may take up to 20 minutes) for the system to reset before you can attempt to start it again. This is a safety feature designed to avoid a buildup of toxic carbon monoxide gases. Q: Why do you have to press two buttons to activate the remote? A: Pressing two buttons helps prevent accidental activation.
