Default Re: key copy, do I have to go to a dealer?

I could be wrong but I think the ignition key has some sort of theft deterrent system built into the thick part of the key which will cut the engine after a few seconds if it's not coded correctly.

Here's a write up for my 2001 PT ....

*“QUICK - ORDER PKG - inc: assist handles, cargo net, deep tint glass, rear seat outboard head restraints, remote keyless entry, light group, pwr central locking system, pwr / heated fold - away mirrors, fold - flat front passenger seat, alarm system, sentry - key theft deterrent system GROSS”
