🔧 PRO TIP
1997 RL (KA9) is a split setup: transponder ignition key plus a separate keyless remote. No 1997 RL trim has push-button start or a proximity fob. The transponder blank is HD106-PT, often sold as BHD106-PT, Megamos ID13. The remote is FCC ID CWT72147KA, P/N 72147-SZ3-A02, CR2025. Mix those up and you’ll chase a programming problem that’s really just wrong hardware. (Wikipedia)

1997 Acura RL Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I got a pin in Santa Barbara, out at Refugio State Beach. It was a 1997 Acura RL that had gone from “starts fine” to “won’t crank” in the span of one beach stop.

He’d already tried the usual stuff. Wiggle the shifter. Try the key again. The human moment was him balancing a cooler on one hip while he fished the key out with sandy fingers, like the car was going to give him one more chance.

I start with the dash clue: the green key light wasn’t doing its normal quick on-off. That’s when I stop blaming batteries and start looking at the key. The plastic head was split, and the chip pocket had been flexing every time the key got twisted.

I cut a fresh blade, cloned the old transponder onto a new key, then did the boring truth test. Start. Shut down. Start again. One more start. Once it behaved three times in a row, his shoulders dropped.

He’d called the dealer first. It sounded like a tow and a longer wait. On site, the RL stayed parked and he kept his day.

Acura RL Same-Day Key Replacement FAQ

Money questions, straight answers

How long does the dealer usually take to replace a 1997 Acura RL key?
On this RL, the immobilizer work itself is not the slow part. Acura Service Bulletin 00-013 for the Type 1 immobilizer ties key registration to HDS and a five-character first password pulled from the iN Immobilizer Code Inquiry. That security step plus dealership workflow stretches the visit: write-up, parts counter, tech assignment, then checkout. I am not aware of a 1997 RL recall tied to the key or immobilizer, so this topic lives in bulletins and dealer process rather than recalls. (Auto Electronics 101)
What is a transponder key on a 1997 Acura RL, and does it need a battery?
Why does the dealer take so long on 1997 Acura RL key work?
Can my 1997 Acura RL be started if I lose every programmed transponder key?
My door remote quit. How do I program a CWT72147KA remote on a 1997 RL?
