Hi gadget2us, I had tried many time but still fail.
Question :
1) which key u used to switch ON (spare key or remote control key)?
2) after successful key in the last digit pin code, what indicator light on the LED?

Try open the passenger side door. I tried twice and it won't go into long beep. I then tried open the front passenger door, voila done!

Switch ON means, till you can see all the lights on your dashboard, (yunno, the usual engine check, srs, oil check, etc etc).

If you did step 5, and didn't see BOTH your indicator/signal lights light up, then you've entered your PIN wrongly/or didn't pressed correctly on the digits.
Trick to do it is to do it with the flow, have a right tempo. Between digits, try not to hesitate on the number of clicks u need to do.

if the number is 4, u MUST see the control panel red light 4x while u pressing it (IF you didn't see 4x red light while pressing, reset it (by going back to step 4) and do again).
then pause to wait for a 1 second red light (that shows that the system has identified the digit),
then immediately go for the second digit. do the same , wait for the 1 second red light, then immediately go to the next digit.

Bro... uhuh

Why mine only beeps @ disarm? No beeps when arming.
I have no problem setting it up and adjusting the volume. Any opinion?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I still get that whistling sound @ 100km/h. Kinda on-off thing. Anybody have any idea what causing it? I notice its somewhere at the front/windscreen area.
Will take the car to SC but the sound might not come out when the mechanics around. doh.gif

Mine comes up starting at 80kmh until 110kmh++. Very loud and becomes very annoying. I have mentioned to SC earlier but the noise didn't come up during the 1k service. (5k didn't have time to check). Waiting for my 10k service and then ask for recheck.

Must be something design related as many are complaining about it.

One dude said that it was a missing nut or something and he said no more sound after he fixed it but as you said, the sound is coming from the front and top of the car which is the same as mine

I have no other problem with the car except for this annoying crap

This issue should be included in the first page later on. But first, we have to find the answer.

That missing nut was discovered by cbinn, a black plastic plug, linger somewhere behind passenger left leg cover. I've encounter the same 20cent plastic cover and plug the hole at the sidewall. Then I checked the driver side, there is the same hole but no 20cent plastic cover was found. Anyway i've covered the hole with equivalent cover, air-tight. After fixing them, tried, and no sound.

Later one fine day suddenly i heard the same whistle @ 100km/h. On-off. Lets attack our SC.

OOooo the Sealant between the main screen is not enough... ask Honda to remove the main screen and re-apply sealant (Silicon) and fix it back... very messy work

I thought only local car manufacturer will do this type of mistake like designing a car windscreen installation without applying adequate sealant? Tak sangka orang Jepun also cut corner like that one ah? Thia car not CKD, it is fully imported. Hahaha. And since more and more people have similar problem, I don't think it is just bad luck of one or two cars, it could have something to do with the mass installation procedure over in Japan side. Or our weather too hot here, Jepun punya sealant all 'kecut'. Hahaha.

Beg to differ regarding the windscreen sealant.

What we heard is whistling sound. Some heard it as early as 80km/h, most heard it at around 100km/h.
Let say there were leak/s around the windscreen, we will immediately notice it during the 1st rain after we collect the car. Water will dripped in and we should've drive back to SC fully loaded.

It could be, the sealant got shrinked, and leave the outer part/side drain around the windscreen dipped-in. Wind going through it will not be smooth. But i dont think it will emits whistling sound. Friction sounds maybe, but not whistle. One way to test is to fill those gaps with clay or something, and see whether the whistle stops.

Example, when we stays at apartment or condo, top floor on windy night, if the sliding door/windows not properly shut, the same whistling sounds will occur. Slightest gap. Wont whistle if its opened wide. Thinking of gaps, i have a few suspicious location which could contribute to this faint whistling noise:

1. Wiper arm hole. The location where the wiper arm is bolted. There is some gap especially the middle one where wind could sips into the plastic paneling.
2. Weather strips on the roof. I notice a very small gap on my right hand side weather strip.
3. There is a small gap between the edge of plastic panel joining to the windscreen & A pillars both right and left. Got rubber lining there.
4. Front door. Notice the outer window rubber lining (black rubber) ended with a small gap.
5. Plastic panels for side mirror.

*Re-post from V4 thread as missing Picture link*

For those who want to install foot lamp, or side step light, or outside door lamp light , or key ring light which is related with our room light. This is mean when we disarm the alarm, we shall have the light on from the upside cabin section.

Do you want to know where is the wire come from ? Just pop up the plastic cover from the front driver seat section on right side and you can see plenty of wiring and fuse at there. Just take note on one connector which is just only have a Pink and Light Blue connection ( there is a black wire hidden but not important ) on this green socket. Tap the wire there and you can have plenty of light combination together when you open the door. Picture are on Spoiler.

Happy modding / DIY .

@lunchtime

Hope you can understand where is the wire come from.

:help:need explanation here..

i thought i read somewhere but cant find it now..

my IN2 is black. when i do my routine weekly car wash day, my trusted car washer show me that my IN2 color was 'bercapok-capok' or 'berbelak-belak'. cant find proper english word.. only notice when closed up.

seem like the paint color coat really thin!

any idea how to solve this matter? is doing wax and polish help? or perhaps glass coating like sierra-glow?

1. Wiper arm hole. The location where the wiper arm is bolted. There is some gap especially the middle one where wind could sips into the plastic paneling. POSSIBLE BUT UNLIKELY DUE TO LOCATION
2. Weather strips on the roof. I notice a very small gap on my right hand side weather strip. VERY POSSIBLE
3. There is a small gap between the edge of plastic panel joining to the windscreen & A pillars both right and left. Got rubber lining there. VERY POSSIBLE
4. Front door. Notice the outer window rubber lining (black rubber) ended with a small gap. VERY POSSIBLE. IF INSTALLED VISOR, NOISE SHOULD NOT BE THERE ANYMORE! ANYONE GOT VISOR INSTALLED, ANY MORE NOISE?
5. Plastic panels for side mirror. (HMM, POSSIBLE AS WELL)
6. HATCH BACK AT THE TOP HAS A BIG GAP THAT COULD TRAP THE WIND FROM THE ROOF. NOTICE PRIUS (ALMOST SAME SHAPE) HAS A DIFFUSER OF SOME SORT ON THE ROOF FOR BETTER AIRFLOW.


THE WITCH HUNT BEGINS.
