99 camry keyless programming hell

Hello Wisemen & Women out there,

My factory remote just died so I bought a used second one with matching fcc id and I tried to program it following these instructions.
I opened up the mirror control switch to short Black/White (GND Pin 10) and Violet (PRG Pin 2) pins; but to my amazement there is no wire in Pin 2. In fact there is no Violet wire at all.

Cars manual says it is equipped with Keyless entry system and I had a keyless entry.
Can anybody help me figure out what is going on?

Thanks a lot in advance. I see someone else had the same problem but he wasn't answered.

Try this (from the FAQ thread):

Remove key from switch
Disconnect electrical connector from door mirror adjustment switch
Jump pins 2&10 in connector
Door locks will cycle
Press a button on remote
Door locks will cycle
If you have another remote, press any button on it
door locks will cycle
Remove jumper

Entering programming mode erases all previously programmed remotes
A maximum of 2 remotes can be programmed to a car.
