2001 Honda Civic Key Green light keep flashing in the dashboard

The other day when i stated the car the green key light stayed flashing while the car was runing, when i got where i was going shut the car and started it and it start and the light stayed on. the next day, I came to start the car and when it started i saw all the needles in the dashboard started to jump and the green key light went off. Today I was starting the car and didn't start at all and the green light came back and started to flash again. i took the key out and put it back then it start the car. I was told something wrong with the key and the remote control, so i changed the battery for the remote and change the kep for another one that came with the car. Not sure what is the problem why my car doing this and i am afraid that it is going to fail on me.

Car not starting or turning over indicates towards multiple possibilities. It can be issue with battery or weak battery. But if battery checks out ok, then it can be starter issue or faulty alternator or problem with low fuel pressure or no spark at spark plugs due to dirty spark plugs or faulty ignition coil or injectors getting cracked or dirty and needs to be cleaned.


To confirm the problem, the basic troubleshooting is required.

2001 honda civic a green key displayed

The flashing green key icon when turning off your car? Ignition security system, requires chipped key to start. It's sort of like the GM and Ford flashing red light to announce the security system is active.

Actually I need more detail about your honda civic. I your green key light flashed and the will not start. the problem is usually on fuel pump for honda civic 1999- 2003. What year is your car?.
To make your car enable running, just turn on your key ( BUT don not start) , wait for moment until your fuel is primed and light goes Off, then start your car. It should be work.

A green key shaped light is flashing on the dashboard. What does it mean?

The green key flashing means that the key you are use is not registered to the car. If you just cut a new key for your car(it has to be a honda key, not a walmat key) your honda dealer will have to program it to your car. If it's a old key, maybe the chip in the key might be bad, time for a new key. good luck.

What does a flash green key when you go to turn the car on mean? The car won't turn over and is flash this green key

the green key means that the immobilizer that is built into the ignition switch is not reading the key properly try switching keys as far as the car not turning over this green light has nothing to do with it but if the car is turning over and not starting it means that the immob. is not reading the key again try switching keys if this doesnt work then the key or keys have to be reprogramed at a honda dealer if you have to do this make sure you take all of the keys to that car
