NOTE- this work's on 2010's with halogen(from the factory)

Special note - factory HID 2010's illuminate the turn signal instead of the headlight. (my buddy has one)
I followed these steps, and the horn made a short beep incidicating it had been disabled. However, when I unlock my car at night the headlights still come on. My headlight switch is in the AUTO position. What am I missing?

I discovered my error. When I heard the first chirp I thought I was done, but that was only indicating it was in Programming Mode. I went through the steps again when I got to work, except this time I hit unlock twice after entering the programming mode. It chirped again. Then chirped when exiting program mode. I should be all set, thanks!
