Worked on my 06, so yes, the 04 should work as well.

Maybe I didn't read your message thoroughly enough, why would you want to re-code your key fob? Battery die in the key fob? My '04 fob still has plenty of juice. I think I missed something.

I have an 06.
The unit that receives the signal from the keyfob was not working properly, causing me to have a hard time locking the doors.... and was replaced.
The keyfobs then need to be programmed to that unit.
 
Another reason would be if you lose your keyfob and buy a new one. The fob then needs to be programmed.
 
This conversation started when people were talking about using the 2007 Keyfob in an earlier model, since the fob is a switchblade design with the key inside.

Aaaaahh, thanks for the clarification. Now if someone can figure how to program the '07 fob to close the windows as well as open them that would be impressive.

Don't they automatically go down if you just press and hold unlock? Up, I'm not so sure of. Maybe holding lock?
 
We had this feature in an RX300 back in 1998 so i surprise many people who buy a luxury car now and have no idea that happens. Some cars even open the sunroof.

Catalytic Converter, 2002 MDX by dmz616

On my 2002 MDX, noticed a metallic rattling noise mostly when I start or shut off the engine. This happend when I was on a trip out of town. At that time I had about 79,750 miles on the car. When I got back I took it to the dealer (Priority Acura, Cheseapeake, VA). They said it was the catalytic converter, and it was out of the 80,000 federal emmisions warranty - I had 80,450 miles. After two days with the car, they said that Acura would pay half of the $2233.18 bill. I have called Acura customer service, and told them about my loyalty to Honda/Acura products. Do not know if they will budge. Has anyone else had converter problems? Has anyone had Acura do a goodwill replacement over 80,000 miles?
BTW, I have had more problems with the MDX than any other vechicle I have owned. These include replacement of transmission, NAVI computer, rear propeller shaft, 4 headlight assys, temp sensor, EGR valve,belt/tensor pulley, front stablizer bars, front shocks, 2 mirror actuators, & front engine mount. And I don't drive it off road.

I'd be interested to know what major (expensive) problems owners have had over 100,000 miles. Since we have had so many problems, we might trade for a new MDX or Honda Pilot after 100,000 miles.

I am trying to program a FOB for a 06 MDX. Followed your instructions without any luck.
 
Clarification - I am aiming the FOB the passenger's Multiplex control unit? (MCU is the passenger door lock?)
 
Thanks for your assistance.

I used the instructions on my 06 MDX and the instructions worked perfectly.
 
I sat in the driver's seat while going through the steps, and didn't point anywhere in specific, but yes, the control unit is behind the glove box.
