Hey there, my name is Dylan and I'm going to quickly show you how to install a Keyless Entry Transponder into a 2004 Honda CRV. Now if you looked down in the description I've included instructions that are directly from Honda on how to do this installation procedure. However it's a little bit confusing so I figured I might as well make this video while I was doing it for myself. You can get the parts including the Keyless Transponder and the two Keyless like fobs for fairly cheap of eBay. I got it from a shop here in Boulder, Colorado for around I think $100 or so but it's definitely worth the money because it's such an easy install. So first of all I'm going to show you guys how to do the install of the little transponder that you actually have to wire to the vehicle harness but no worries it's really easy. One second. All righty so ignoring the fact that it's now daytime, first things first you'll want to disconnect the negative battery terminal from your battery. So you'll need a 10-millimeter metric socket and probably some electrical tape to go ahead and disconnect that. I'll go ahead and do that and be right back. Alrighty with that disconnected I always recommend you tape it or something up here so that there's no chance of the electrical terminal can fall and somehow hit the negative terminal on the battery because that would be bad. Also as a pro tip if your hood state doesn't stay in your car, A, this part and this little grommet right here are replaceable for very very cheap like $2 or $3 and replacing those will make your hood stay brand is new. All right back to nighttime. Alrighty with introductions out of the way. First of all in your main center console you're gonna clear out whatever crap you have in here inevitably and then what we're gonna be going for is that little tab's tab to access point in the back. Now you can try and get this off with like a flathead screwdriver or even your hands but I've done that before and it's a real pain in the ass so what you really want to do is get something like a paint can opener. This is really really useful because it's kind of like a tab to way to get in those little indentations and pull it free. So I'll go ahead and do that one second. Alright with that free you'll notice there's just one single Phillips head self tapping screw that we're gonna go ahead and unscrew and another point for this entire installation procedure it's very beneficial to have a headlamp kind of like I'm wearing. There's some really dark difficult to reach areas in here that we'll want to use this headlamp for. So I'll go ahead and take out the screw once I. Alrighty now with that guy removed and a note for that do be careful when you're taking it that screw because it's really easy to drop into one of these holes and getting that back would be an absolute nightmare. So now that we have that screw removed what you're gonna want to do is reach your hand in here hold firmly onto one of these holes and pull this directly out. Now that might be kind of difficult the first time you're doing this just because this has probably not been removed since it left the factory but there are no additional screws or anything like that there's just claps so all you want to do is again I'll put it back in there. I do is grab this guy and firmly pull sprate out and then you can go ahead and put this guy off to the side. Alright so now with that part removed what we're gonna do is go in here and you should see a clip right there. If that clip is populated with something then that means you already have the transponder installed. If not like in my case then we're gonna have to get the connector out so we can install the transponder. So if you see I've already kind of done this what you want to do is go ahead and cut through this blue tape right here. It's to the left of the brown vehicle harness cut through that and then go ahead and take it off. Alright so once that tape is removed you notice that this cable the cable directly to the left of the main vehicle harness this guy right here. That's the cable you want to get out and you'll notice when you're taking off the blue tape it is connected to that green little connector right back there. Where the wire goes into that green connector is very delicate so be very careful when you're taking this off but what we want to do is get that cable route it through this area where the main vehicle harness connects to like this brown connector. We want to route it through this area and out so we can access it better. Okay and you can see now how that's been removed and you'll see how it comes out between where that harness is and where the brown connector is. There you go that's our guy and then in the next step you'll it'll probably change the daylight because I'm gonna go by the part that's where we're gonna go ahead and install it into the Kedlest transponder. Alrighty it is again daytime and we have the part. So this is the part I ordered off eBay from a shop here in Boulder Colorado called Aldous Count Parts. They're really really nice. I'm touching about a hundred bucks for this guy and it's OEM which is also always nice. So when you get to the part it comes with by default a instruction guide but don't need that that's what this video is for. Then you get two of the actual fogs and most importantly the transponder. So this little guy is going to go in there as we were pretty little working on with this is gonna slot directly onto that tab that was shown earlier and then the green little connector is gonna plug directly into it. Bear back. Well that was difficult but now with the transponder installed and that little green clip all the way plugged in we are ready to reconnect the battery cable and hopefully everything works. Ha ha she still turns on progress. So according to the Honda documentation it is first important to reset the driver's auto window feature for whatever reason. So you want to do is press the auto button down all the way down. Give it a minute. Put all the way up. Hold it there for a couple seconds and now the fog's are going to work perfectly. Additionally there's a reset procedure that we're gonna have to go through and forgive me I'm gonna have to look up what the hell it is. So we need to make sure all electrical items are turned off. Okay start the engine and hold the engine speed at 3,000 revolutions per minute until the radiator fan comes on and then we're gonna let the engine idle for about five minutes with throttle fully closed and with all electrical items off. I'll do that. Alrighty and with that done the system is now working fine. So if I press lock, it relax, unlock, unlock, unlock, unlock, perfect. That also works but you know don't want to do that right now. Do note that if your key is in the ignition this will not work. Don't have a panic attack. You have to make sure that guys out. Additionally your remote should come pre-programmed from the factory to work with that transmitter we installed. However if it doesn't there is instructions in the guide that very clearly go over how to program this guy to your trans water. Alrighty that's about it. If you have any questions leave a comment in the comments. Thanks. Bye.
