Default Keyless entry

I have a 97 c5. I have been trying to synchronize my keyless entry fob to my car, I go in to options scroll through to blank page and then hold reset button for 3 sec but nothing comes up on display . What am I doing wrong?

Did you try holding the Lock and unlock buttons down at the same time for 5 -10 seconds?
I have had to reprogram mine on my 97 a few times it loses its mind not sure why.
