Programming the HomeLink System
The HomeLink system provides 3 buttons which can be individually selected and programmed using the transmitters for current, on-market devices as follows:
-
Press and release the HomeLink button you would like to program. The indicator light flashes slowly in amber when the button is pressed.
-
Hold the hand-held transmitter 2.5 to 7.5 cm (1 to 3 in) away from the HomeLink button you would like to program while keeping the indicator light in view.
Depending on the hand-held transmitter, it may be easier to do the programming by holding it 15 to 20 cm (6 to 7.8 in) away from the HomeLink button.
-
Press the hand-held transmitter button continuously until the indicator light changes from amber (flashing) to green (on/flashing).
Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace this Programming Step 3 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator/Canadian Programming” section.
-
Press the HomeLink button again to check if the programming has been completed.
-
If the indicator light remains on in green, the programming is complete and the device becomes operational.
-
If the indicator light flashes rapidly in green, firmly press and hold the Homelink button and release it after two seconds have passed. Repeat this process up to three times to complete the programming. The device becomes operational and programming is complete. If the device does not operate, go to the next step.

-
At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit.
-
Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
-
Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the Homelink button, and then release it after two seconds have passed. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process.
Press the programmed HomeLink button and make sure that the HomeLink System operates.
-
If the status indicator arrows are flashing, refer to Garage Door Two-Way Communication.
To program the remaining two HomeLink buttons, go back to Step 1 of Programming the HomeLink System and repeat the procedure.
