Kailangan lang ng relay.

Ok rin ito kase less hassle sa pagmodify pa nung Door sides.

I recently had my key duplicated in KeyCards in SM Megamall. I had the spare keycard made since I completely forgot about the claim by the dealerships that the supplied keys actually are embeded with a chip that is directly tied up with the alarm system. When I remebered this "exclusivity" claim, I immediately tried out my keycard thinking that I just blew P400 for a non-working spare. However, to my surprise, not only did the keycard open the doorlocks, it also completely disarmed the alarm and started my engine with no problems at all. Once done with starting the engine, I also tried locking the door again and arming the alarm. True enough, the car's alarm armed with a simple turn of the keycard.

Now, I highly doubt if there really is a chip in the dealer supplied keys. Medyo napapisip ako na there's a bogus claim regarding this issue.

This means na wala tayong immobilizer.
Wala palang sinabi yang wave key kaya rin pa lang gayahin . kalo ko exclusive tayo .

Aston Martin,

I didn't say that I saw a 2nd gen V key with an embeded chip with it. It was the dealership (well, at least a number of sales staff) which claimed that the keys had chips in them. I was even told that no other key, apart from the original ones provided with the vehicle, can actually disarm the alarm and start the engine. I wouldn't be surprised at all that there are other V owners out there who were fed with this false information.

OIC,

what you can do is get back to your salesrep and let him prove na may chip nga yung keys. if proven wrong, you should demand something in return hehehe.

but not being able to start the engine while the alarm is on is correct. ive tried it na out of curiuosity and it does work :wink:

Aston Martin,

Actually, I do intend to bring it up with my agent and the other concerned personnel of Honda Libis. As to expecting anything in return, I seriously doubt it! Hehehe. Alam mo naman dito sa atin...

Honestly, I'm quite pleased that I already have a keycard for my V. There had been some several instances in the past when my spare keycard bailed me out from some deep crap (Honda Civic). The thing really comes in handy. However, It's also quite annoying, frustrating, iritating, etc., to know that it only takes a duplicate key to disarm the stock alarm and expose the car to theft.

As such, I ask the following: Can aftermarket car alarms, like Clifford, be installed in the 2nd gen V? Is it possible to integrate the existing central locking feature with these aftermarket security systems? And finally, will such a move eventually void the warranty on the stock central locking and anti-theft system?

May problema ata sa compatibility with other system yong aftermarket. yong iba ayaw mag-start. Waranty talaga kalaban natin dyan. Thanks for sharing that info. so doble ingat tayo.

Sa Megamall, 3rd level, Bldg. B, po. Look for the Keycard booth near the escalator. You won't miss it. Sa alam ko, Itong branch na to lang ng Keycard ang capable pa lang mag-duplicate ng wve keys. Yung card type, P400, while the actual spare key type is P700.
