Default Homelink Problem?

Have two separate garage door openers at two separate locations. At the home location I programmed button one to open the ga4age with no problems. Traveled to our o5her location this past week and programmed button 3 to open that door. Worked flawlessly. Until we came home and found out that when we programmed button 3 it evidently wiped out the info on button 1. Had to reprogram button 1 to open the garage at home again. Won’t be going back to the other location again for a few weeks but I’m betting that now that I’ve reprogrammed button 1 again that it probably wiped out button 3 again! Anyone else have this happen and was able to get it working properly?

I have buttons programmed at two different locations with no problem. I am working from memory here, but I believe the manual tells you to hold 1 and 3 in as a first step. This erases programming for all three buttons. After you program your first location, do not do that step at your 2nd location or that will erase everything.

Wished this was the problem but not in this case. Programmed button one when we first bought the vehicle. Programmed button 3 just last week. Shouldn’t have had any effect on button 1 since it wasn’t part of the programming process for button 3.

I have not had that issue. In my case, button #1 opens my entry gate, button #2 opens my "single" car garage and button #3 open my "dual" car garage. I just programmed each one and it has been working fine. No issues at all.
