Got my '05 RX330 last Saturday and trying to program the garage dr opener with no success. Tried the remote and the reset buttom with no success. Its a Craftsman dr. opener. Any suggesstion??

 

After you program the button, go to the garage door opener (actual unit on the ceiling) and click "Learn Remote" (its a button, usually red on the back with all the other adjustments) and then go click and hold your new programmed button in your lexus. The light should blink on off on off, that is to tell you that you successfully programmed it. Make sure nothing is in the way as it may close.

Hmm wonder if this would work with my apartment complex garage.....

 

It will probably work, and you probably don't even have to hit program on the back of the actual garage unit as I doubt they use a rolling code system seeing as though they probably have a TON of openers out there. Just try programming it to your car and see if it works.

I have a Craftsman opener as well. Put a new one in about 3-4 years ago. Followed the instructions in the Owner's Manual and it worked first time. Try, try... try, again.

 

Read your manual. That's how I figured it out. I programmed my garage door, my mother in law's gate and sister is law's apt. gate.

 

Do you press both buttom simtaneously? If so, how?

 

No need. You press the button on the Craftsman first to put it into learn mode, then you have a few seconds to press the button in the Lexus.

 

Make sure the old owners codes are deleted or it will never work.

 

Ahhh! That must be the problem. Now how do I erase those old codes?

 

Read the RX manual but from memory you have to hold the outside buttons (together) down for about 5 seconds.
tips:

as suggested: clear our any programmed information.
Teach RX the send frequency and code by driving out of range. [garge-door-opener ---> RX]
Drive either inside the garage or park outside of the garage when teaching the opener to register the rolling code [RX ----> opener]

Yes, when the light blinks rapidly the codes are clear (per my memory from last March!)

 

After I had cleared my old codes out of my car (described above) and pushed the learning button on the actual garage door opener, I went back to the car and pushed the No. 1 opener button 3 times holding it for 2 seconds each time. It worked the very first time. That was for a rolling code opener.....

 

Got around to clearing the codes from the car and resetting the codes and now it works!! Thanks again to everyone for your input.

 

No button to see anywhere on the lot garage door opener so I am just gonna try it as if it's on lol!
