Transmitter Test
NOTE:. lf the doors unlockorlockwiththetransmitter, but
the LED on the transmitter does not come on, the LED
is faulty. Replace the transmitter,. lf anydoor isopen, you cannotlockthedoorwiththe
transmrtter.. lf you unlocked the doors with the transmitter, but do
not open any of the doors within 30 seconds, the
doors relock automatically.. The doors do not lock or unlock with the transmitter if
the ignition key is inserted in the ignition switch.
1. Press the lock or unlock button five or six times to
reset the transmitter.
. lf the locks work, the transmitter is OK.. lf the locks don't work, go to step 2.
2. Open the transmitter and check for water damage.
. lf you find any water damage, replace the
transmrtter.. lf there is no waterdamage, go to step 3.
3. Replace the transmitter battery (A) with a new one,
and try to lock and unlock the doors with the
transmitter by pressing the lock or unlock button
five or six times.
. lf the doors lock and unlock, the transmifter is OK.. lf the doors don't lock and unlock, go to step 4.
Reprogram the transmitter, then try to lock and
unlock the doors.
. lf thedoors lockand unlock.thetransmitter is OK.. lf the doors don'tlockand unlock, replacethe
transmitter.

Transmitter Programming
Storing transmitter codes:
The codes of up to three transmitters can be stored in
the keyless receiver unit memory. (lf a fourth code is
stored. the code which was input first will be erased.)
NOTE: lt is important to maintain the time limits
between the steps. Make sure the doors and the hatch
are closed.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (lli.
2. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
receiver in the multiplex control unit behind the
driver's side of the dash.
3. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
5. Within 'l to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
receiver in the multiplex control unit behind the
driver's side of the dash.
6. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
8. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmifter aimed at the
receiver in the mupltiplex control unit behind the
driver's side of the dash.
9. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF,
'10. Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
11. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
receiver in the multiplex control unit behind the
driver's side of the dash.
12. Confirm you can hearthe sound ofthe door lock
actuators. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter
lock or unlock button again,
13, Within 10 sec., aim the transmitters (up to two
additional ones) whose codes you want to store at
the receiver, and press the transmitter lock or
unlock buttons.
Confirm that you can hear the sound of the door
lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.
14. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and pull out the key.
'15. Confirm proper operation ofthe transmitter.

System Description
The vehicle is equipped with an immobilizer system that will disable the vehicle unless the proper ignition key is used.This system consists of a transponder located in the ignition key, an immobilizer control unit-receiver, an indicatorlight, and the ECM.
When the key is inserted in the ignition switch and turned to the ON {ll) position, the immobilizer control unit-receiversends power to the transponder in the ignition key. The transponder then sends a coded signal back to the immobilizer
control unit-receiver which then sends a coded signal to the ECI\4.
iEl'JUiliii'tlun"oona"|.r KEYCYLTNDER
lf the proper key has been used, the immobilizer indicator light will come on for about 2 seconds, then go off.lf the wrong key has been used or the code was not received or recognized by the unit, the indicator light will comeon for about 2 seconds, then it will blink until the ignition switch is turned OFF.lf the ignition switch is turned OFF, the indicator will blink for about 5 seconds to signal that the unit has reset
correctly, then the indicator will go off.
lf the customer has lost his key, and cannot start the engine, contact Honda Customer Relations.

ISystem Descriptions
The Multiplex Control System has four internal
functions:. Multiplexing (send multiple signals over sharedwtres). Wake up/sleep (runs at full power only on demand toreduce battery draw). Fail-safe (fixes or ignores faulty signals). Self-diagnosis (Mode 1 for the system, Mode 2 for
input lines)
The system controls the function of these circuits:. Entry lightcontrol (ignition key lightandceiting light). Wiper/washer intermittent wipe and park functions. Keyless/power door lock. Meter assembly, temperature gauge, and indicator
lights. HVAC (compressor and fan control). Key-in reminder. Headlight reminder. Seatbelt reminder

Multiplex Communication
To reduce the number of wire harnesses, digital signals
are sent via shared multiplex communication linesrather than sending normal electrical signals throughindividual wires.. The input signals from each switch are converted todigital signals at the central processing unit (CpU).. The digital signalsaresentfromthetransmitting unitto the receiving unit as serial signals.. The transmitted signal is converted to a switch signalat the receiving unit, and it operates the related
component or monitors a swltch.. There are exclusive communicalion lines between
the ECM, the gauge assembly, and the under,dash
fuse/relay box.
Wake-up and Sleep
The multiplex control system has "wake-up" and"sleep" functions to decrease parasitic draw on the
battery when the ignition switch is OFF.. ln the sleep mode, the multiplex control unit stops
functioning (communication and CPU control) when it
is not necessary for the system to operate.. As soon as any operation is requested (for example, adoor is unlocked), the related control unit in the sleep
mode immediately wakes up and begins to function.. When the ignition switch is turned OFF, and the
driver's or front passenger's door is opened, then
closed, there is about a 10 second delay before the
control unit goes from the wake-up mode to the sleepmode.. lf any door is open, the sleep mode will not function.. lf a key is in the ignition switch, the sleep mode will
not function.. When in sleep mode, the draw is reduced from
70 80 mA to less than 10 mA.
Fail-safe
To prevent improper operation, the multiplex controlsystem has a fail-safe function. In the fail-safe mode,
the output signal js fixed when any part of the systemmalfunctions (for example a faulty control unit orcommunication line).
Each control unit has a hardware fail-safe function thatfixes the output signal when there is any CPUmalfunction, and a software fail-safe function thatignores the signal from the malfunctioning control unitand allows the system to operate normally.

Airbag Disposal (cont'dl
Deploying Components Out of the Vehicle
lf an intact airbag or tensioner has been removed from
a scrapped vehicle, or has been found defective or
damaged during transit, storage, or service, it should be
deoloved as follows:
1. Confirm that the special tool isfunctioning properly
by following the check procedure on this page or
on the tool label.
2. Position the airbag face up, outdoors, on flat
ground, at least 30 feet (10 meters) from any
obstacles or DeoDle.
3. Follow steps 9 through 1 1 of the in-vehicle
deployment procedure.
Disposal of Damaged Components
1. lf installed in a vehicle, follow the removal
procedure for the driver's airbag (see page 23-113),
front passenger's airbag (see page 23-114), side
airbag (see page 23-115). seat belt tensioner (see
page 23-4), and seat belt buckle tensioner.
2. In all cases. make a short circuit by cutting,
stripping, and twisting together the two inflator
wires.
NOTE; The driver's and passenger's airbag each
have four wires: twist each pair of like-colored
wires together
Package the component in the same packaging that
the new reolacement Dart came in.
Mark the outside of the box "DAMAGED AIRBAG
NOT DEPLOYED'" ''DAMAGED SIDE AIRBAG NOT
DEPLOYED", "DAMAGED SEAT BELT TENSIONER
NOT DEPLOYED" or "DAlvlAGED SEAT BELT
BUCKLE TENSIONER NOT DEPLOYED" so it does
not get confused with your parts stock.
Contact your Honda District Service Manager for
how and where to return it for disposal.

Deployment Tool Check
1. Connect the yellow clips to both switch protector
handles on the tool; connect the tool to a battery.
2. Push the operation switch: green means the tool is
OK; red means the tool is faulty
3. Disconnectthe battery and the yellow clips.
