Homelink programming issue 2014 IS350
Just drove my new IS 350 F Sport home today. In the near future I'll post a comparison between a '14 328is with the M suspension package, which I drove for a day before settling on my new Lexus, and my F-Sport (you probably know that the F-Sport has much better steering).
For now, I've been frustrated trying to program my homelink with my rolling code garage door opener. It took me all of a minute to program two other vehicles, but the Lexus is problematic. Followed the manual's instructions, but nothing happened.
The instructions say that I need to press the button on the opener console, and then press the homelink button on the car for two seconds then repeat. Tried that and a dozen variations, and nothing worked.
Anybody with a '14 IS have better luck? Again, my opener is the rolling code type. BTW, couldn't find anything in search that addressed my specific problem.
TIA

VBX, after you pressed the learn button on your opener, what did you do on the car to learn the code? That's the part that hasn't worked for me.

I ran back to the car and pressed the homelink button until it blinked.
I followed this youtube video actually. Worked in first try.

hey, i had a similar problem with my garage opener when i got my car too. i fixed it by changing the brand of the remote for the garage opener.
seemed like Lexus didn't work with the brand i had. ones i changed the it, its paired with the garage door in 2min.
hopefully you have it fixed by now though
