2006 Accord Key Programming

[macelaw]

Are there instructions for programming replacement transponder keys for the 2006 Accord LX Sedan? We recently purchased the car from a dealer and it only came with one master and a valet key.

I've heard of people purchasing blanks on eBay and getting them cut/programmed.

I'm a newbie here, so excuse any ignorance! :)

you have to have the dealer do it.

Dealer required security programming. The only programmable option is the keyless entry functions. Shop around because prices may vary between dealerships. :yes:

And if you purchased it there, remind them of that and doing this for a nominal fee is good customer relations.

Unfortunately I purchased it from a Toyota dealership. They were pretty rude...it's like, "why are you so stupid to buy a Honda? Toyotas are so much better." It's almost as if they didn't want my business. Luckily the price was so outlandishly good on the 06 Accord LX, I didn't really care. :)

Thanks for the responses. I'll shop around.

Don't pay anyone to program the transmitter. Save a little money. It's very easy to do. Here's the procedure from the manual.

you still need to pay to have the immobilizer programmed.
