If your old key broke and from what you've said you've changed the locks over to a replacement set? If so.....
You need to take the little electronic chip out of your old key (under the plastic part) and put it into the key you are using now (the replacement key).
Your ECU/Immobilizer will only let the engine start if the correct chip is in the key. This is whats used to disable the immobilizer.
Hope this helps.
