If you have done the procedure correctly, the door lock will activate on the 8th time you turn it to on. Just a note, my F150, my DW's Explorer and DGD's Mustang all activate on five cycles. Second note if the lock activates, the current code in the original fob will be erased and need to be reprogranmmed.
You must go from the off position to the on position, not from accessory to start or any variation. Door lock possition and door open or closed nor brake on or off has any effect that I know of.
Use the fob, open door, insert key, turn fron lock to ignition on and then repete 7 more times. If that doesn't work try more cycles. The lock has to cycle and the code will be sent out and the fobs will have to be activated.
Any length of time mentioned is critical.
All numbers on the back of the fobs must match. This is absolutely essential.
If it doesn't work try a qualified tech or locksmith.
