HRV Hybrid Engine Start Issue

I'm experiencing an issue with my 2020 Honda HRV Hybrid. The engine refuses to start reliably. Sometimes it will start briefly, only to stall immediately afterward. An error is stored, which I suspect is related to the immobilizer. Could the key programming be incorrect, perhaps affecting the ignition control or key signal? The car has 86891 km on the clock.

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Honda HRV Hybrid is experiencing unreliable engine starts, often stalling immediately. The issue is suspected to be related to the immobilizer, possibly due to incorrect key programming affecting ignition control. Erratic flashing of the security light supports this suspicion. Reprogramming the key at a workshop resolved the problem.

I seem to remember a similar problem with my HRV. Does the security light behave strangely?

Indeed, it does. It flashes erratically. Was your problem also diagnosed as a key issue?

danielbecker1

Yes, precisely the same symptoms. I advise taking it to a workshop; they will almost certainly need to reprogram the key.

Thank you for the advice. The workshop confirmed the key programming was faulty. After reprogramming, the issue is resolved. The repair cost 45€.
