canmax400 will not program 2009 f150

Cannot get the Canmax400 to program following install of it and Viper 5901.  LED remains solid red, have reset module, still wont program using the instructions included with unit:  insert 1st key, turn to on until security dash light goes out, within 5 secs, insert 2nd key and repeat, within 5 seconds hold programming button and press remote start.  Will work if one of the keys is in the ignition when the remote start is activated.  I get no diagnostic codes afterwards, just a failed remote start on the fob.  Have reversed the TX and RX leads, still the same.   Any input would be appreciated.  Anyone have directech instructions for hookup of Canmax400 to 5901 in a new Ford?

Besides the rx tx... what else have you gotten wired to the bypass?

Specifically.... how are you turning on the bypass during remote start!?

Ok - new info.  Went thru and checked all wiring connections, end to end with ohm meter.  Found one of the RX/TX wires with intermittent connection, fixed it, and now the module acts like it is programming, but still won't remote start the car.  Reset the module several times, responds as it should with orange led, then solid red.  Go thru the key sequence, and red led turns green on 2nd key for a few seconds, then goes out.  Once I hold the prog button and hit the remote start, it flashes green at about 1 sec intervals during the entire remote start sequence (3 attempts).  Each attempt, the PATS security light in cluster flashes rapidly, indicating invalid key.  Did this many times, consistently does the same thing.  Also, no longer will actually remote start when I insert key in ignition like it would before (not that that was going to do me any good, but at least I was able to verify the rest of the wiring was working properly - ign, starter, brake kill, etc.)

According to the instructions, the led should not go green until I remove 2nd key, hold programming button, and remote start.... 

Going nuts, any ideas?

Now that makes more sense than any info I was getting from xpresskit tech support.  The truck is a company fleet vehicle, what does 'fleet mode' mean/do, and how do I get it out of that mode?  Something the dealer has to do, or what?

thanks, hopefully this is the right track, I have all but given up and am in the process of buying an idatalink module.

Finally solved the problem - yanked out the Canmax and installed an Idatalink ADS-TB module - took all of 30 minutes for the swap out, and within 2-3 tries at the programming sequence - SUCCESS!

Don't know about the Canmax and other vehicles, but it does not work on the 2009 F150, cannot recommend it unless you are into pure frustration.
