There is no Pulsar in 01 for the US so I don't have any info on it but I'm betting the security system is locking you out because it doesn't recognize the key.

Yes, it's pretty simple. You can't change keys.

You will have to take it to the dealer so they can program new keys to a new ignition lock.
