The HomeLink has 3 buttons and can be programmed to operate 3 separate devices. Prepare the HomeLink for programming by erasing all codes or the memorized data programmed by the former owner.

Push and hold down the 2 outside buttons for about 20 seconds until the indicator light flashes. All memorizeddata will be erased.

1. Decide which one of the 3 buttons you want to program. Push and hold down the button for about 20 seconds until the indicator light begins to flash. While holding this button, follow steps ”2” and ”3”.

2. Bring the hand held garage door opener within about 25 mm (1 in.) of the button being programmed and push the button on the hand held garage door opener. The signal from the hand held garage door opener is sent to the vehicle’s opener.

3. When the frequency and code is registered, the indicator light flashes rapidly. At this point, you can release both buttons.

4. To program the remaining buttons, repeat steps ”1” through ”3”.

If you want to replace an existing program with a new program, select the button you want to program. Follow the procedure from step 1.

If the transmitter has a ”rolling code feature”, it is necessary to program the in–garage receiver after programming HomeLink.

1. Locate the ”training” or ”learning” button on the in–garage receiver and push and release this button. Location of the button may vary by the garage door opener manufacturer.

2. Firmly push and release the trained HomeLink button 2 times (some garage door manufacturer may require you to push the HomeLink button up to 3 times) to complete the process.

The garage door should now operate when the HomeLink button is pushed.

Good luck.

You need to know if it is a rolling code door opener. If it is you have to do the second set of steps 1 and 2 above within about 30 seconds. It would help if you had 2 people do this. One at the garage door opener pushing the button and the other in the car within range pushing the homelink. You might also try to hold up a working remote to the homelink pressing both buttons and then try the second set of steps 1 and 2.

make sure you have your garage remote with you. I suggest that don't do in your garage because it can cause some mix up with the main overhead. With garage door remote in your hand. <press the garage remote and decided which remote on your car to use (1,2,3)> 2nd <make sure you press both (garage remote and on the car) at the same time and hold for aprx 20 second untill the light to start to flash really fast then it should flash normal. Then release the remote. What I do is pointing the garage remote at the to the remote on the car (interior light). It seem to be working fine. I will take some pic later and post on here probably tonight, so you all can see how it done. I hope this will help a bit.
