HomeLink stores the code in a
permanent memory. There should
be no need to retrain HomeLink if
your vehicle’s battery goes dead or is
disconnected.
If your garage door opener was
manuf actured bef ore April 1982, you
may not be able to program
HomeLink Universal Transceiver to
operate it. They do not have a saf ety
feature that causes the motor to stop
and reverse if an obstacle is detected
during closing, increasing the risk of
injury.Always ref er to the opening
instructions and saf ety inf ormation
that came with your garage door
opener or other equipment you
intend to operate with HomeLink. If
you do not have this inf ormation,
contact the manuf acturer of the
equipment.
The HomeLinkUniversal
Transceiver built into your vehicle
canbeprogrammedtooperateupto
three remote controlled devices
around your home, such as garage
doors, lighting, or home security
systems.
If you are training HomeLink to
operate a garage door or gate, you
should unplug the motor f or that
device during training. Repeatedly
pressing the remote control button
could burn out the motor.

µPress and hold the remote control
button and one of the HomeLink
buttons at the same time.
If you just

any previously learned codes bef ore
training the f irst button. To do this,
press and hold the two outside
buttons on the HomeLink
Transceiver for about 20 seconds, or
until the red indicator f lashes.
Release the buttons, then go to step
1. If you are training the second or
third buttons, go directly to step 1.
Unplug the garage door opener
motor f rom the house current.

If the button does not work, repeat
this procedure to train it again. If it
still does not work, you may have a
variable or rolling code garage
door opener. See if you do by
pressing and holding the
HomeLink button you just trained.
If the red indicator blinks for 2
seconds,thenstayson,youhavea
rolling code garage door opener.
Go to ‘‘Training With a Rolling
Code System’’.
Repeat these steps to train the
other two HomeLink buttons to
operate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate,
security system, etc.).The ‘‘Training HomeLink’’
procedure trains HomeLink to the
proper garage door opener code.
The f ollowing procedure
synchronizes HomeLink to the
garage door opener so it sends and
receives the correct codes. For security purposes, newer garage
door opening systems use a ‘‘rolling’’
or variable code. Inf ormation f rom
the remote control and the garage
door opener are needed bef ore
HomeLink can operate the garage
door opener.
Plug in the garage door opener
motor, then test the HomeLink
button by pushing it. When the red indicator f lashes
rapidly, release both buttons.
HomeLink should have learned
the code f rom the remote control. The red indicator in HomeLink
should begin f lashing. It will f lash
slowly at first, then rapidly.
