Rep Power: 0 Completely disable remote access system
Hello everyone,
Recently in my neighborhood there's been some episodes of thieves hacking the keyless entry systems of a few cars, just by using some special transmitters. (I've seen that in the news as well a few months ago).
I have a 2009 Honda Civic and I would like to disable the remote access system of the car car, so the only way to access the vehicle (for me, and everyone else!) is by physically inserting the key in the lock and turning. Does anyone know how to do so?
Thank a lot!
David

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

to disable the remote
You could pull the backup fuse out of the underhood fuse box, this should kill the keyless, radio, power locks (unless key is on), dome, and some other functions.

On that car, the keyless receiver is integrated into the immobilizer control unit (for the transponder chip keys) on the steering column. You can't disable one without disabling the other.
If you could strip the column covers to unplug it at night, you'd probably not like the hassle of the covers.... and if you leave the covers off, well, that's like an invitation for some thieves, right?
