Default c6 will not enter accessory mode

HELP! First post. Please help as I'm getting ready to shoot my lovely c6.

I have the dreaded no fobs problem just after driving it on saturday. Please trust i've spent hours researching the no fobs problem, and like everything with my car, my problem is different compared to everybody else it seems. My last attempt to fix the no fobs problem is to reprogram them both. but alas, my car then gives me a new problem I need to weather before doing that.

I cannot enter accessory mode now. So now I need to fix the issue where I cannot get into accessory mode. button stays green. never red light. no radio. cannot roll down window. just clicks when I hit the button. yes, I've held it down for 10 seconds, still nothing. quick push, nothing. fobs have all new batteries now TWICE. I wasted 200 on a diehard battery that ended up not being needed but kept it. NOTHING. i've spent hours researching and changing batteries and i only fall farther and farther behind in my issues with this car. it's infuriating to say the least and i'm moments from cashing it all in on this car.

i've searched all over for the many ways to fix this issue but I cannot find anybody with this problem. Any ideas? I've had so many electrical demons in the 6 months I've owned this car that i may need to be talked out of selling it for somebody else to get the high blood pressure this things causes me.

Any help is so greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I see that i'm not in the right place. Apologies. I've struggled to figure out how to use the forum. If i could move this I would, but not sure how to do that either. Trying to figure out my car is becoming an overwhelming task.
