Auto Theft Prevention/transponder key

Question
I have recently purchased a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica which came with 2 transponder keys. Can I damage the cars computer system if I try to start the car with a key without the chip?
Thank you, Fred

Answer
Possible. Don't risk it.
If you put in another transponder type
key, this could disable the fuel injection system
and Chrysler would need to re-program.

Even the standard metal key could trigger the anti-theft
inadvertantly.

Try not to go there.
Expensive day.
