Ford Focus 2017 No flashing blue light on initial step to program

0 votes
I was sent an EVO all that was preprogrammed.  During first attempt, something went wrong, and I think by whole unit had the programming erased.  I bought my own Flash Link updater, and loaded the settings based on standard questions.  I believe I have everything right, but when I take the module to the car and hold down the program button and plug in the data cable, I only get the solid red light.  No alternating blue, yellow, red. I did get them on my first attempt, but not after my reprogram.

 

Can anyone help?

this helped me. I did have an additional problem, at the end I had both blue and red flash 10x at the same time, so I thought I did something wrong, because my dash said No Key Detected.  So a couple times I restarted too early, when I found out I should let it go a few more seconds to finish the programming.  It worked, when the car started and turned off by itself.

 

Thank you so much for your comment and reply.  Good day Derek!
