I am putting it in the ignition as it says to. I have done it several times, several different ways. But once you insert the key for the last time, the instructions say that you turn the ignition to the on position and you should get the emerg flashers twice, indicating that you are in the programming mode- then push any button on the new remote. It never flashes the flasher lights, and if I push a button on the remote, the remote never programs.
