  My 2008 Honda CR-V's alarm system is not turning off after we installed a new battery. Can you provide guidance on how to disable the alarm system?

  In 2003, I installed a new battery in my CRV. However, the alarm suddenly went off and I couldn't deactivate it. Eventually, it stopped on its own. But now, every time I lock the car using the remote or key, the alarm sets off after a few seconds for about 20 seconds before stopping. How can I fix the alarm issue, and should I be concerned about it draining my new battery? Thank you for your help.

  My vehicle won't start because the key fob alarm was activated too many times.

  To deactivate the anti-theft alarm on your Honda CRV, start by using the key in the driver's side door. Turn the key to unlock, then lock, and finally unlock again. This action should turn off the alarm light.

  After looking into my 2017 Honda CRV alarm system, I checked out a website and followed the steps there to reset my alarm using my car key in the driver's side door (Right, Left, Right). It fixed the issue perfectly.

  I bought a worn-out 2002 CRV, and the driver's side door lock has never functioned during the time we've had it. Lately, we haven't driven it much since our other car is in the shop. However, when we tried to use the CRV as a backup, it wouldn't start - the horn just keeps honking constantly. How can we fix this and reset it?

  I'm experiencing the same problem. I followed the steps correctly, but the theft light is still on, and our 2007 CRV won't start. It's disappointing to see how Honda's quality has gone down. We're having the Honda towed to a Ford dealership for a trade-in. I'm finished with Honda's subpar quality!

  I took my 2009 CRV in for the airbag recall and discovered a small hole in the heater pipe leaking antifreeze. I ended up replacing the heater pipe, thermostat housing, thermostat, and all hoses. Later, I noticed that the AC compressor had a crack and the pulley wasn't turning. I purchased a new AC compressor with the pulley and a new serpentine belt. After putting everything back together correctly, I ensured the torque settings for the plenum and throttle body were accurate. It has been 3 weeks, but I still can't get the car to start. It's strange because it wasn't broken initially— I just wanted to update old parts. Now, the engine cranks endlessly but won't fully start. I'm bewildered and would greatly appreciate any insights on what might be causing this issue.

  Honda fails to acknowledge and rectify their common issues, leaving consumers to deal with the consequences. With the support of corrupt governments, Honda uses profits from sales to keep producing vehicles instead of investing in full-time staff to address and resolve their recurring engineering problems at no charge to customers.

  A common issue is a drained battery in the key fob. Try replacing the battery to see if that resolves the problem. Additionally, the key may need to be turned left and right as part of the solution. However, the AAA technician advised me to do this 10 times, not just once or twice. He successfully used this method today on my 2008 Honda CR-V.

  It didn't function properly on my 2017 CR-V EX-L, unless my issues aren't related to the anti-theft system.
