Hi,
In order to get the radio code, you need to retrieve the serial number from the top of the radio.
To do this, remove the two philips screws below the radio trim panel and remove the trim panel. The serial number is on the top left corner of the radio on a white sticker.
Provide that number to your local dealer parts counter or over the phone and they will decode your radio for you, or add a new question here with that information and I can provide the unlock code for you.

You will have to call Mitsubishi for the code if it's not in the Owner's Manual (like my wife's wasn't). Call Mistu with the VIN# and Serial# of the radio at hand.

To get the VIN number, check the bottom of the front window.

For the Serial # from the radio: Remove the two screws under the center console. There is one on each side of the console (you may have to lay on the floorboard to see them clearly). Then pull out the two air vents from the center console (this will help you get a good grip for the next part). Hold the edge of the top of the console and the air vent for either side and pull it towards the rear of the car. I had to wiggle the console pretty vigoursly to get both sides out. Be sure not to pull it too far from the dash right away because you'll need to disconnect the hazard light switch prior to completey removing the console cover. Once that is disconnected you can safely move the console cover. This will expose the mounting braket. There two screws on the side of the mounting braket for the radio. Just unscrew those and you can remove the radio and see the serial number on top of the radio (you may also be able to see it if you just look in the space above the radio while it's still in the mounting braket but I wanted to make sure I had all the numbers/letters correct and didn't have to go through this again). Just do everything in reverse (don't forget to plug the hazard light switch back in!) to get it all back together.

SOURCE: 2001 mitsubsi eclipse enter car radio wrong code 3 times

call 1888mitsu2001, choose option #4, then hit * (star). give the operator the last 8 numbers in your vin and they will provide the radio code for FREE!

DO NOT PAY FOR THE CODE ONLINE OR GO TO THE DEALER (they will also charge you).

- you will also need to provide the serial and part number of your radio (takes about 5 minutes to take apart an eclipse dash...1 screw in the bottom of the HVAC panel) if you call the 1888mitsu2001 it will provide basic instructions on how to accomplish this.

- if your radio says "off" (meaning you entered the wrong code too many times) you need to put your key in the ignition and turn it to ACC mode for approx. 45min - 1hr and then your radio will say "code" at which point you can enter the code to unlock the radio.

Does the 2001 eclipse syper come with a keyless entry key

It depends on what version you have. My 2001 Spyder GT came with 2. Unfortunatly they tie in with the radio and anti theft system and when the battery dies in the little stick remote (doesnt take long for this to happen) you have to get the codes off the radio, call mitsubishi, and get the exact right codes to make them work again

2001 mitsubishi eclipse radio says code just had work done and they disconnected the battery. I don't have the code is there any way to get the code without paying mitsubishi?

Google it. You should be able to find the code for it on Google. Type this: 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Radio Codes and hit ENTER. Do not click on the buttons under the seach bar - this will provide better results.

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Put the key in the ignition and set it to "accessory" setting and leave it there for about 45 minutes.
After that remove the key and put it back in and you should be able to enter the code again.
