If this doesn't work for you, try the below. It worked for me: A continuous red light could also mean that the keyfob lost its connection with the car locking system. 1- The keyfob was "unpaired" due to some unlucky sequence of pressing the wrong buttons. Buttons may randomly function, or you may hear the door locks reacting to the signal being sent by pressing the button (muffled sound inside the car door), but the unlock / lock is not working properly, and the red light stays for about 5 to 6 seconds. Solution: 1- Sit in the car with your doors closed and unlocked. 2- Long press the lock button to see get the continuous red light. 3- Immediately, start pressing the unlock button repeatedly multiple times (5 to 10 times) until the red light flashes. 4- When you hear the sound of the door unlocking: your keyfob is now paired again to your car's locking system. 4- Try locking the doors to ensure the red light does not stay as before. You should be able to lock and unlock the door, and the keyfob is back to its normal function. Note: This method only works when your keyfob is already programmed. It does not work to program a brand new keyfob or to reprogram an existing keyfob to a new lock system. To do that, watch this: ruclips.net/video/ox1O_hN2o24/видео.html Note: if the red light appears to be breathing slowly / fading (not continuous light for 5 sec), your battery needs to be changed.
Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! I did exactly what you suggested and cleaned both sides of the motherboard using WD-40 and q-tips, changed the battery, and viola! It works great!!! You rock!!! Melinda
Dude, your video saved me so much time and money! I tried everything that I could think of to fix my key and it was doing this exact same thing as yours was, as soon as I sprayed down both sides of the circuit board with electrical parts cleaner and wiped them dry the key fob magically started working again! Thank you so much!!!
This worked perfectly for me. So excited. I had being doing it manually for months now and feel safer to be able to unlock it a lit bit ahead of getting to my car. Thanks!!!!!
Thank you man! This worked for me as well. I sprayed the WD 40 on a white Tshirt and whipped the circuit bored. When I clean both side the first time it didn't work. Did it a second time and it started to somewhat work. Than a third time it worked perfectly after doing a more deep wipe without rushing it.
This worked! I had this same issue with my 2018 honda fit with red light staying on and unlocking constantly. I tried with WD-40 on the circuit board which didn't seem to work, then I used rubbing alcohol to clean it, and the plastic casing the board sits in. It worked! key locks and unlocks just like it used to. thank you soooo much!
I admit I'm not very mechanically inclined but I can usually change the key fobs battery this was only my 2nd time but 1st time for this car. Your video saved the day I didn't have wd40 for I just wiped it with clean cloth and it worked
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I sprayed the circuit board with WD40 after taking the key apart. Then I hit it with compressed air to dry it off, then put it back together. Works just fine now!
Thank you!! I’d tried multiple batteries figuring I’d gotten bad ones and couldn’t figure out what the problem was. This solution worked great! Our Accord manual has zero info on this and Honda customer service said to take it to a dealer. Appreciate the common sense help.
I held the lock button for 20 seconds, then I just clicked all buttons for 10 seconds and it worked after. I did clean the circuit board with a clean wipe both sides too. That didnt work. But holding the lock button did. Thank you
I had the same problem with my 2014 Honda Civic key remote, but instead of WD-40 which is oil base, I used 99% rubbing alcohol, you can even pour it on and won't damage the electronics as it evaporates quickly. This happened twice, I thick because moisture on inside, so second time I did the cleaning twice or three times, then the remote is fixed again.
Mine would blink red when I pressed the unlock and lock doors buttons, but no light in the trunk. It wouldn't even unlock/lock the doors, it would just open the trunk. I cleaned the rubber coverings of the motherboard, put it back on and it worked. No WD40 used. TL/DR: if your remote is not working, trying cleaning it thoroughly.
Well this hasn't worked for me on a 2015 Fit LX. Red light stays lit and the unlock button will lock the car. Tried the procedure of holding the lock button for until red light is lit and pressing unlock repeatedly but it just locks the car. Eventually it effects the actual power lock on the door where it won't respond and I have to start the car to reset it. I'm thinking it'll need reprogramming or replacement.
On mine, a 2017 civic hatchback lx, I would push the unlock and it would lock and the led would stay on for a few seconds. I cleaned it with rubbing alcohol and nothing changed. Then I sprayed it with WD40 and wiped it off with a rag. Connected it to the battery and it started working again almost immediately. Still hangs up with led light on but if I hit the lock button the led goes off. Weird but it did work for me.
My light on the fob still stays on then goes off. It won’t unlock my car or lock it. When I push the lock the light stays on then goes off. I’ve replaced the battery twice. Any suggestions anyone ?
@@user-sg4ip9rs2w got a new key made. It’s a common issue with the chip in the key. I would take the battery out of the messed up key and use key to unlock n lock, start car manually for the meantime
@@endthefedproblemsolved6138 I just took out the battery, you can still use the key to start and drive but you won’t able to lock with the fob. Manual lock . Save up enough to get a replacement . Buy it from Honda .
This is the only thing that worked for me after multiple hours trying to clean the circuit board with wd 40 and rubbing alcohol, and changing the battery, and trying to “reprogram”, etc. I had to try multiple times but these techinque saved me. I just kept shorting the circuit with the tweezers and pusing the buttons after each try until one of them displayed a normal blink of red light! Thank you so much! ruclips.net/video/G_bSEm6G2R0/видео.html
Hey I swapped the battery for key fob. I have 2015 Honda Accord. I can’t lock my car w/key button. Now my ignition switch is locked/stuck. Any suggestion
@@pnweezy bro really. That’s not the damn tix to fixing this. May e half can fix w/that. I on the other hand had to swap new ignition switch along w/new Immobilizer. $1050 later. But thanks for the help and info.
Try adjusting the silicone... if the circuit board it too deep then it will depress a button continuously... make sure the board is just inserted slightly. You can test it by powering the board without the silicone and pressing the white buttons yourself. If it works then it's most likely the positioning of the silicone that is the culprit. Cleaning the board will does nothing
It happens with my honda fit 17 model. After lookin at the you tube video i took the key fob apart do some cleaning with alcohol and it works just find

DUDE YES! THANK YOU! This was all it took!
Thank you! You save me $340 which is what the dealer quote for a new key fob.
This right here did the trick. Also had to hold the trunk and pop it to program that too, while sitting inside

Thank you. I cleaned everything with alcohol and a toothbrush, assembled everything and it worked, thanks.
Awesome! Glad to hear!
Damn thank you man was having this issue just last week even after replacing the battery
For sure! Glad it worked for you!

I’ve got the same issue. I thought maybe the lock button was not making contact but it does respond to holding it for 15 sec..
So my lock button on the circuit board seems to be stuck and pushed in. Any ideas on how to get it unstuck?
On mine, a 2017 civic hatchback lx, I would push the unlock and it would lock and the led would stay on for a few seconds. I cleaned it with rubbing alcohol and nothing changed. Then I sprayed it with WD40 and wiped it off with a rag. Connected it to the battery and it started working again almost immediately. Still hangs up with led light on but if I hit the lock button the led goes off. Weird but it did work for me.
The unlock button from the Circuit board is stuck. How would I get it unstuck?
Wd40 worked like a charm
Goat this worked
Cleaning it inside worked for me. Pressing buttons 5 times here and there did not.
Its the prongs that touch the circuit board.. i just fixed both of mine by pushing up the prongs so they touch the circuit board.
Thank you for your help 🙏
Of course! Thanks for watching
My light on the fob still stays on then goes off. It won’t unlock my car or lock it. When I push the lock the light stays on then goes off. I’ve replaced the battery twice. Any suggestions anyone ?
Did you fix it? I’m having the same issue. Red light stays on for 5 seconds. Car would unlock n lock by itself when I’m near it
Have the same problem. Car beeps randomly when messing with the key as well.

Stick key in ignition and turn key and steering wheel same time to unlock the steering wheel then you would need to reprogram your key to the car
Look up RUclips on how to program the key yourself. No need dealership
