System Check and Status Log

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Acura RDX, 2015 Acura RDX, 2014 Acura RDX, and 2013 Acura RDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

The HDS can be used to:

Check the state of the keyless remote registration and the S-NET line by doing a SYSTEM CHECK .
Check the number of times the keyless access control unit or the backup control unit did not permitted the engine to start by checking the STATUS LOG .

Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC), then press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode and follow the prompts to the SYSTEM SELECTION MENU.
NOTE: If the HDS does not communicate with the vehicle, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting .
At SYSTEM SELECTION MENU, enter ONE-PUSH START, then select SMART KEY UNIT or BACKUP CONTROL UNIT.
At SMART KEY UNIT, enter SMART INFORMATION, then select SYSTEM CHECK 1, 2.
At BACKUP CONTROL UNIT, enter SYSTEM INFORMATION, then select SYSTEM CHECK.
Do the SYSTEM CHECK. If there is a system check number, do the troubleshooting for the item indicated.
Check the STATUS LOG using the HDS . Troubleshoot the line with the highest counts first. If all the lines are 0 (zero), the problem may not be caused by the immobilizer system or keyless access system, check for ignition or fuel problems.
NOTE: Once repaired, clear the status log by removing the No. A29 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box or disconnecting the battery.
