I just replaced the ECM in my 2005 Escape & I did have to have a Locksmith come out & REPROGRAM the Key Codes into the computer. When You turn on your ignition, the red THEFT light will probably start flashing fast & the engine will not turn over. This means it doesnt like your key. Time to call the Locksmith or drag it to the dealership to get it reprogrammed.

Does a 2003 ford escape have a timing belt or a chain?

The 2003 escape has a timing belt - but it is not the sort of belt that can cause havoc and internal damage to the engine if it breaks. If it breaks, the engine simply won't run until you replace the broken belt - but the engine won't slam into itself - as it were.
