View Full Version : Compustar on 2015 Honda CR-V PTS programming

Anyone know how to program the remotes to connect to the remote starter for the first time. I have a Compustar blade unit CM7000 and Prime series 2WG9-SP RF kit. For Push to Start vehicles Compustart suggests pushing the ignition button 15 times without pressing the brake pedal which equals 5 ignition cycles. The caveat is that button should be pressed consistently with 0.5 sec intervals. The issue with the 2015 CR-V is that after every ignition cycle (3 presses) the steering lock wants to activate so there is a delay after the 3rd press until the button can be pressed next time for the start cycle to initiate again.

Any one tried this?

Many thanks.

You're right about cycling the ignition on 5 times to enter the "remote learning process" for the Compustar system.

The Honda PTS systems are pretty slow in-between each accessory/ignition/off cycle, preventing you from entering the remote learning process due to the time delay; which you already know.

I find that the only way to really get into that learning procedure with the Honda, is to physically hot-wire the ignition wire on the Compustar (Green off the ignition harness). You can either shoot 12V with a probe/test light to it, or take a pair of wire strippers and hot-wire the 12V wire (red off the ignition harness) to the ignition five times with a brief delay in-between each pulse.

Although it isn't necessarily a hard task, I'm not sure of how comfortable you are in terms of performing something like this. If you aren't comfortable, I'd recommend bringing it to a shop that deals with remote starters.

Another tip for you if you plan to attempt it yourself - The PTS systems in Honda's are controlled all by the BCM, located behind the glove box in your specific vehicle. I'd look behind there first to find the remote starter.
