Maxisys used to have that option under immobilizer "replace ecu", but it was removed on older Hondas. I hope they put it back in the next updates. The " replace ecu" under PGM-FI does not work for those years I believe, you have to do it under Immobilizer. If your Autel doesn't have that feature, borrow a different scanner such as Matco Maximus or x431 Launch pad, if you don't see the "replace ecu" option in the menu do an "all keys lost" and it should take it. What tool are you using?

Good Day,

If possible , can you please datalog the issue and also create ticket complaint? Then forward it to me so our engineers can look into this.
Datalog will make it easier for our engineers to find out what is the problem.

Good Day,

Go to Support & Updates then Training Videos. Select Datalog.

Once it is complete, please let me know along with VIN and serial number. So I can forward this to our proper engineer.

Sorry for late reply. We can replace ECM and PCM function for this vehicle. Nissan and Chrysler has VIN change depending on immobilizer type.

pcm replacement or all key lost option under immobilizer will program the new key. this option is not developed for all vehicles yet, report them as you find them to be missing. also vin rewrite option is not available for some early models hondas and not needed either for immobilizer purpose when using an autel tool but it may be needed for inspection and emissions purpose in some states. the vin rewrite option is available for all can bus vehicles after 04 or so and should be done. when using the Honda HDS the pin is by vin so it is important in that sense.
