I really think you should step back and ramp yourself up slowly until all of this is second nature. The road you're on is going to end in tears.
Well I didn't see anything on the car to indicate diag, so perhaps that is my problem. I pressed the start stop button three times in rapid succession. I mean I can count to 3 .

As for starting off slowly, I was under the impression that ASS memory was as basic as it gets, so I'm not sure what I'm stepping back to at this point. Thanks for all of your advice!
ASS coding is very basic with Bimmercode (where you still have to read and follow their instructions). It is only slightly more complex in ESys, so yes, still basic. But all coding has a baseline and doing it slowly, reading forums, and fighting through the baseline confusion and chaos causes some things to become second nature.

My observation is that it seems you might be missing that "hard earned baseline understanding". Apologies if wrong, I am just going by the fundamental nature of the questions. Even if I am wrong, this observation ought to be valuable to others getting into coding.
