The Immobilizer System has gotten the best of my 2000 Accord
 
My car won't start because of the immobilzer system has killed the fuel
supply. My valet key does not solve the problem. This is not the
first time this has happened. In the past my car would not start, then
all of a sudden it cranked right up and worked fine, now it has
reverted to its old ways. Is there anything I can do to without
bringing it to the dealership???

=====================================

So, the KEY icon is flashing on the dash, and the engine spins but
doesn't start? If there's no flashing icon, and it happened first thing
in the morning, it's probably just flooded. The problem can be caused by
a dribbling injector. The owner's manual tells you how to start a
flooded Honda. Run some injector cleaner thru it at least twice a year
to prevent future problems (and improve performance).
