Icon2 ECU issue on 1995 vtec auto

my car would start and run for 3 secs and shut off, i couldnt find anything wrong, got gas got spark, so off it went to stealership - they said needs new ECU brain, i m ok with that, not the 1138 price tag, so i told them i ;ll get one used - they said i have to take it back to get it "programmed" to the car, now i seen this too on ebay listings, is this a bunch of hog wash??? The car doesn t have alarm or dis-abler or anythng on it, how can it be???

thanks in advance, rob - searched on here only found links to buying souped up mods, dont need that, just need it to run tyvm

95 accord doesn't have immobilizer, so you do NOT need to have it programmed to the car. It is plug-n-play

You don't need to program that ECU. Only Immobilizer equipped vehicles require programming. IM me about your ECU. I will pay shipping if you will send me your old one. Thanks.
