1998 F150 Lariat Keyless entry

I just got this truck and order what is suposed to be the right Keyless entry remotes for it. When I try to program the truck, they are not excepting! I do the open door, close door, push lock, unlock, on, off x 8 and the doors lock on their own. But when I push the keyless button, nothing happens. What is going on? Am I doing something wrong?

My remotes are : 3B:213T-15K601-AB
three button....

Do I have the wrong ones?

I did buy new bat. for them both and still nothing is happening....

To reprogram the remote entry
transmitters:
1. Ensure the vehicle is
electronically unlocked.
2. Put the key in the ignition.
3. Turn the key from the 2 (LOCK)
position to 3 (OFF).
4. Cycle, eight times, rapidly (within
10 seconds) between the 3 (OFF)


position and 4 (ON).
Note: The
eighth turn must end in the 4 (ON) position.
5. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming
mode has been activated.
6. Within 20 seconds press any button on the remote entry transmitter.
Note:


If more than 20 seconds have passed you will need to start the
procedure over again.
7. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that this remote entry
transmitter has been programmed.
8. Repeat Step 6 to program each additional remote entry transmitter.
9. Turn the ignition to the 3 (OFF) position after you have finished
programming all of the remote entry transmitters.

Note: After 20
seconds have passed, you will automatically exit the programming mode.
10. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming
mode has been exited.

Thanks. Ok, New question:

How do I make sure that my truck has keyless entry on it?

While trying the above steps, on the 8th turn, the doors lock but do not unlock.....

Did all this with a new remote, worked for a day, now, no keyless remote action. Can lock with the key only. Both remotes don't work, radio and courtesy lights inside the doors stay on too. Now the starting batteries have gone flat.
So the question is, how does one sort this out

Cool

Been told now, that the $25 American keyless units don't work on Australian F series trucks, even though the numbers match up. Looks like I'll have to spend $380 for the Aussie style keyless remote from Ford, plus get reamed because the new unit has stuffed the system I can see me getting blistered at least $1k to replace some module in the system. What a load of BS.
