2006 Acura RSX Remote Programming
Programming Instructions
Programming Instructions:
Note: Programming the remote is the same or similar for many Acura and Honda vehicles.
The Acura RSX key fob programming instructions are a bit tricky when it comes to timing.
Be sure to do each step QUICKLY – within just a couple seconds of each other or the
programming procedure will fail.
We recommend printing out these instructions and reading them thoroughly before starting the procedure.

Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to the ‘ON’ position

Pointing the key fob transmitter below the car stereo (where the receiver is), push the lock or unlock button.
