I finally got around to getting another key (thought it was a chipped key, but ended up not being chipped) and fob, but the car won't go into remote programming mode. I follow all the instructions but the car never cycles the locks to notify that it is in programming mode. Is there something wrong with the ECU that would do this but have no other side effects? The car runs great and everything works like new, but I just want my darn keyless entry.
 in advance for the help
