arghhh... mine is still flashing... let me recap to make sure i'm not screwing this up

1. press start/stop button twice to put it in pre-ignition mode
2. wait a short duration for solid airbag light to go dark, indicating it will soon flash
3. instantly press start/stop to turn off completely before it has a chance to flash
4. wait 5 full seconds
5. repeat steps 1-4
6. repeat steps 1-4
7. press start/stop twice
8. let it run through for a while now, should be in diagnostic mode and blinking more slowly than usual
9. press start/stop to turn it off
10. wait 5 full seconds
11. turn on, and good to go

Mine never gets to step 8!

Sounds like you've got it understood alright! Mine worked the first time I did it.

QUICK NOTE: When you do this, you will lose any "chimes" associated with keys/doorlocks. For example, when I get out of the car with the engine running now, the car doesn't make those 3 annoying beeps (to let me know the keys are not in the vehicle). Same goes for the lock button next to the (door)handle. Pressing the "lock" button on the key fob still yields a "honk" however.

Just an FYI.
