Need assistance programming new key fobs w/aftermarket alarm

Somehow, I knew I would be back here for part 2 needing help once more with my 2003 F350. I received great advice from so many here recently and got my truck started and back to my house after a friend tripped an alarm mode and the factory Key Fob was dead.

After I got it home, I replaced battery in Fob and was successful re-programming the (1) Fob {or maybe it just was working again and my programming made it seem that was the cause?}. It is just a two button that came with the vehicle. I ordered two 3 button Ford Fobs and went out of town to work. I came home today and tried to program those as well, no joy. The last grat advice I got on previous issue was this-

You deactivate the alarm, so the valet can lock/unlock car with key, or remote and not set off alarm..

My former alarm, the dash lite was actually the valet mode switch, you could push it even though it was also the status led.

Lastly, blinking pattern can also be a code to what set off alarm.
Battery, door, shock sensor, etc

Find the manual online...

Well, I'm not able to find the name of the alarm and thus download a manual. So I see the blinking light on the dash is flashing twice, pausing, and repeating over and over. This time, I cannot get it to go out. I noticed my alarm does not arm itself when I lock the vehicle in this mode. The button underneath does nothing, and lthe blinking LED is just a light, not also a reset button.

So I am certain it is still in valet mode and I cannot get it out. The factory Fob I got works, but not the two new ones. I even took out battery of old factory Fob, and tried programming, but no dice. I put battery back in expecting no remotes, but it was working once more. So I'm stumped, and need direction to get alarm working again, and I would really like to have the two new Ford 3 button key fobs programmed to my F350 and alarm of unknown origin. Suggestions much appreciated.
