That’s because you must have tested the mapping in a buffer containing the help file, which is non-modifiable by default (and you probably don’t want to modify it). Try it with an ordinary buffer. Anyway the answer to your original request was probably John’s reply: you’re looking for an insert mode mapping and you have defined a normal mode one instead.
