I lost the only key I had to my car. I have another 2003 Eclipse I took the ignition out of to switch over because I have the key for that one. Do I need to program the ignition to the car?

Yes, you do need to program this because you are changing the ignition keys and the PCM will not be enabled. I am attaching the information on this below for your review.

Also, I am attaching the information on what needs to be done when replacing certain parts within the immobilizer system.

Please let us know what questions you have and we can go from there.
