could be that all the key slots in the truck are used up?

Also could be that the truck is locked against programming a new key?

can you remote start the car with the key in barrell with ignition off?

You do release the button AFTER the 2nd connector is plugged in right?

 

Also you can try the "manual transmission" style of programming, I have found in the past that there is too much of a delay after step 7 and the remote starter starting the vehicle, so just push the programming button and power up the ignition of the vehicle with a jumper.
