Default Key fob programing problems

I have been unable to program a new fob using the standard instructions because I have not been able to get the ready to program message on the DIC after turning the hatch key 5 times. I have retried numerous times. I have read about others having the same issue on U-tube; but no ideas on what’s wrong. Any ideas about what my problem might be?

Not sure if this helps, but feel free to use as a reference.

Getting into the programming mode, make sure you are FULLY turning the key 5x.
If anything gets in your way: ie: plate holder or camera, remove them and try again.

If export car, then key will not allow you to get into fob relearn RCDLR mode, and will have to use a tech2 tool to program in fobs.

Also, depending on where the car was planned to be exported to, may need the export fobs for the car as well (they and the TPMS in the tires are on different frequency that the usa models.
