Immobilizer System Status Log
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2020 Honda Fit, 2019 Honda Fit, 2018 Honda Fit, 2017 Honda Fit, and 2016 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
If you suspect there is an immobilizer system problem, check the status log in the HDS.
1. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC)
.
2. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
3. On the HDS screen, at SYSTEM SELECTION MENU, enter IMMOBI, then select IMMOBILIZER SETUP, select SYSTEM CHECK, NUMBER of KEYS and STATUS LOG, then select STATUS LOG.
4. Check the STATUS LOG count. Troubleshoot the status with the highest count first. If no counts are listed, the immobilizer system is OK. Continue with normal symptom troubleshooting.
