I'm currently working on an '05 Honda Civic. I replaced the steering column but now it has a different key. How do I reprogram the immobilizer system?

  • instead of reprogramming the immobilizer why don't you swap the ignition tumbler and other components if any.

  • Can't do that because the tumbler was already worn out.

  • The reason I changed the steering column was because the tumbler was worn out.

    A locksmith may be able to service the tumbler. But you'll need to have the car towed to a dealer or a shop with the Honda HDS and have it reprogrammed. Also I'm pretty sure the tumbler comes out of the steering column so I'm curious as to why the whole thing was replaced.

You need to have the car towed to a dealer or a shop with the Honda HDS software. AFAIK There is no scantool-less method to do this.
