Key Programming
I lost my car key with transponder and the reserve transponder is not programmed properly.
So I called my vendor and he told me to open the trunk 5 times in a row in five seconds and than press "off" than it takes 10 minutes (this appears on the display) for programming.
You have to do this procedure 3 times....
But no succes...
Any advice?

Here is the procedure. It will not work for you since you have lost your "recognized" transmitter. The only way to program your one remaining transmitter is by use of the Tech 2 scan tool.
To match a new transmitter to your vehicle when
you have a recognized transmitter (two recognized
transmitters are required for Canadian owners),
do the following:
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Have the recognized and new, unrecognized
transmitters on your person.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the vehicle
key into the key cylinder located above the license
plate. See Hatch/Trunk on page 2-14 for more
information on the key cylinder.
4. Open the trunk.
5. Turn the key five times within five seconds.
6. The DIC will display READY FOR FOB #X, where
X can be 2, 3 or 4.
7. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in the
glove box transmitter pocket with the buttons
facing towards the passenger’s side.
8. Once the transmitter is programmed, a beep will
sound. The DIC will display READY FOR #X,
where X can be 3 or 4, or MAX # FOBS LEARNED.
9. Press the ACC button (ignition switch).
