Yes, there probably is a hack to unlock your stereo and reset with a new CD you can put in a wrapper and tape to the inside of you vehicle above the stereo should this happen again.
Me I would suggest you discuss this with one of our real audio techs such as Robotek. You can tell him I sent you.
In your address bar copy and paste the below address and then click on the Ask Me button below his photo.

Your welcome. I hope he can help you reset the stereo. If anyone can he can do it or like me refer you another expert on the board.
If you thought I was helpful how about a helpful rating as I wasn't trying to fix your problem I wanted to see you get the Help you need from one of our Audio experts.
Its up to you if you want to change the rating I really was just trying to get you pointed in the right direction and save you a little cash in the long run.

These Eclipse head units have an anti-theft system. The original owner
must select a CD to serve as the "key" for the unit. If anyone else
wants to use it, the key CD must be inserted in order for it to work.
You may want to call Eclipse customer service with the serial number
ready (not a good option)

Hi
The stereo in the Eclipse can be removed with nothing more than a Phillips screwdriver
Disconnect the negative battery cable from your Eclipse's battery. Remove the two Phillips screws along the bottom of the radio/climate control trim panel. Lift up the bottom of the trim panel to unlock the lower retaining clips. Work your fingers around the sides of the panel to loosen the other clips and remove the panel. Remove the four Phillips screws holding the stereo in place. Slide the stereo out of the dashboard and disconnect the wiring harness and antenna cable from the back of the device.

Thank you for your comment.I have had this problem for around 2weeks now. I did not buy the stereo from a dealer. I live in a small town and am not sure if we have an eclispe dealer here.Do you know of any other websites or anything else I might be able to try?
I did not purchase from dealer and am not sure we have an eclipse dealer where I live. Are there any other websites or something else I may be able to try??
I have been unable to locate CD used as "key" when unit comes on first screen reads "all off" then reads "call 800" then reads "SCC02082" these set of numbers are not to any phone help could the "SCC" stand for security code? if so how do you enter it?
Thank you worldvet for your info. I have sent problem to robotek I hope to get this issue solved I really appreciate your help
