Unless it is an automatic ecu you can buy an immobilizer by pass unit from K-Tuned or Hybrid Racing.

Troubleshoot:
Most of the errors can cause by removing items such as steering wheel, seats, seatbelts and airbags. Its very rare for a sensor in the front to go bad but if you have been in to an accident and your airbag didn't deploy but the seatbelt locked, YOU MUST replace the SRS module.
If you have aftermarket steering wheel or seats, there is a resistor that you can purchase from Radio Shack where you stick in between those where the airbag or seats suppose to be and act to complete the circuit.
How do you remove an Acura RSX door panel?
First, there are 3 or 4 screws holding it, as I remember, and all of them located in the traditional locations. 2 of them on the inner door handle, the one U grab on to, and 1 or 2 smaller screws are on the little handle (the locking mechanism). And before removing a door panel, U must remove a little plastic triangle in the top front corner of the whole door. Use a clip removing tool, and carefuly start from the top part of it. When U got all the screws from the door panel, and got the "triangle" off the door, U should take a look at the "door-lock handle" mechanism, whether U can just disconnect the rod and keep it on the door panel, or it has to be removed by sliding it sideways and having it out and then disconnect the metal rod. This is it. Now the door panel is only holding by clips all the way around. Using the clip removing tool (trim tool), and carefully find where exactly is the clip and stick the tool right to it, or as closer to it as possible. The reason is because this clips and a plastic the one is holding that clips in, they are breaking pretty easy. After the panel is free U make sure U got all the plugs disconnected, and there U go, just take it out.

How can I reset the clock on a 2002 Acura RSX?
Are you talking about the clock on the radio? If that is what you are talking about then turn the radio off and you will see that under the FM button it says "clock" hold that button in and use the "4" button for the hour change and the "5" button for the minute change. Hope this helps. and if it is from disconnecting the battery, you will need to put in the securety code, you can find that in the owner manual, and if not, you can call an acura dealer and give them the vin and serial number of the radio and they can get the code to you
How to get my Acura RSX radio code?
I had the same problem when my battery died. I took it to the dealership fearing that it may cost money to find the code in their database.

Siiting in the drivers seat, open the glove compartment, and look on the outside of the "inner" compartment. should be a white factory sticker
