Rep Power: 0 There's a button on the panel above where your left foot would be when you sit in the driver's sear. Try pressing it once.

Rep Power: 0 I did the same thing ot my car and thought it was broken, turn the key two the second position, and within 5 seconds flip the switch to the OFF side, then remove the key and see if it worked, it takes a few tries to get it right.

Rep Power: 0 There seem to be other ways to fix the valet mode issue, but here's what Honda told me to do.
Unlock the doors, insert and remove key from ignition 5 times rapidly, then lock and unlock the doors with the switch. Try your remote again, it should now work.
Hope this helps.
