Default ECU light

Post back and let us know what you find in the owner's manual.
I have a 1998 accord (CG9) the ign barrel wore out so replaced the whole thing and the black box immobilizer too,the car now will not start with the green light flashing. does the ecu need resetting to the new key? as i thought the immobilizer box told the ecu the key was correct?
thanks

The ecu and the key have to be programmed to "know each other". You'll need a locksmith with the proper tools or a dealership
