This is gold. I’ve been locked out of my MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSS for days.

Does anyone know if this works on push-start MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSSs?

Trying this on my MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSS later. Will report back.

My MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSS won’t start without that code. Following this closely.

Can confirm it worked for my 2013 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSS.

Worked for someone with a MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE CROSS? Need to hear it!
