2009 Subaru Impreza, won't respond to 6 presses after blue/red solid for programming

Question

After holding program button and connecting 6-wire main connector, the lights cycle. Let go of programmimg button when red and blue are solid. Connect all other plugs, okay. Press and release program button 6 times, no change - the red and blue lights stay on solid. No flashing 5 times each as expected.

Standard direct wire connection method,confirmed all are good to each location.

Answer 1

This would indicate you either have the wrong firmware in the module or (if connected in your car) the yellow wire on the 20 pin connector already has voltage before the key is turned on.
