Hi all, I tried to program a new key fob today but could not get the hazard lights to blink when inserting the key6 times or more after locking the doors. I would start the car drive forward and then shut it off, unlock doors, and open car door to start the process over to give it another try. However, on the 4th attempt the car appears dead to the world. Is there a security function that puts the car into lockdown? Not sure what to do, can someone provide some guidance? Thanks,
much appreciated.
 
Turns out the battery terminal was loose, solved that. But back to programming the remote, I cant get the hazards to flash. Does the blank key in the fob need to be programmed or something first?
