Default 1996 318ti 1 button key programming?

Hi, Just purchased my 318ti and I have a 1 button bmw key. When I press the button, the orange light lights up but it doesnt activate my central locking.

Is there anyway to program the key to make it work? Ive seen guides for the 2 button and 3 button keys but none for the 1 button.

Any help would be appreciated.

thats all that key is supposed to do. the two and three button remotes that you read about is a seperate unit completely. so basically the button is only supposed to sign that orange light. guess you can use that when its dark and you cant see your door lock cylinder or the ignition lock ;-)
