Programming the HomeLink Transmitter
Do not use the HomeLink Transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the ªstop and reverseº
safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Your vehicle's engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the HomeLink
Transmitter until the indicator light begins to flash
rapidly (after 20 seconds). Then release the buttons.
This procedure initializes the memory and erases any
previous settings for all three channels.
2. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Hold the end of the hand
-held transmitter
about 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13) away from the surface
of the HomeLink Transmitter so that you can still see
the indicator light.

2-59
3. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter
button and the desired button on the HomeLink
Transmitter. Continue to press both buttons
through Step 4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the indicator
light on the HomeLink Transmitter flash slowly and
then rapidly. The rapid flashing indicates that the
HomeLink Transmitter has been programmed.
Release both buttons once the indicator light starts to
flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the HomeLink
Transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described. The HomeLink
Transmitter may not work with older garage
door openers that do not meet current Federal
Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot program
the transmitter after repeated attempts, refer to
ªRolling Code Programmingº later in this section
or contact the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer
at 1
-800-355-3515.
Be sure to keep the original hand
-held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
HomeLink Transmitter.Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand
-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case, you
should press and re
-press the button on the hand-held
transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the
button on the HomeLink Transmitter. Release both
buttons when the indicator light on the HomeLink
Transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
Operating the HomeLink Transmitter
Press and release the appropriate button on the
HomeLink Transmitter. The indicator light comes on
while the signal is being transmitted.
The HomeLink Transmitter is disabled when the
VALET lockout button inside the glove box is activated.
For more information, see ªValet Lockout Buttonº
in the Index.
If the hand
-held transmitter appears to program the
HomeLink Transmitter but does not open your garage
door, and if the garage door opener was manufactured
after 1996, the garage door opener may have a ªrolling
codeº system. A rolling code system changes the code
of the garage door opener every time you open or close
the garage door.

2-61
The garage door opener should now recognize the
HomeLink Transmitter. You may either use the
HomeLink Transmitter or the hand
-held transmitter to
open the garage door.
If after following these instructions, you still
have problems training the garage door opener,
contact the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer
at 1
-800-355-3515.
Erasing Channels
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash (after 20 seconds). Release both buttons.
Accessories
Accessories for the HomeLink Transmitter are available
from the manufacturer of the unit. If you would like

2-78 DIC Messages
These messages will appear if there is a problem sensed
in one of your vehicle's systems. Vehicles that are first
sold in Canada will have a number after each message.
This number helps to identify the message which is only
displayed in English.
Pressing the INFO or INFO RESET button(s) will
remove most of the following messages from the
DIC display:
APPLY BRAKE TO SHIFT
- 46: This message will
appear if your vehicle is in PARK (P) for about
15 seconds and the brake is not pressed. On the climate
control panel, press the OFF button (next to the MODE
button) and the down arrow on the PASS TEMP button
for about five seconds. Hold the same two buttons to
display the message again.
BATTERY NOT CHARGING
- 7: This message will
appear if the battery is not being charged. Have the
electrical system checked by your dealership at your
earliest convenience.BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH
- 8: This message
shows that the electrical charging system is
overcharging (more than 16 volts). To avoid being
stranded, have the electrical system checked by your
dealership. You can reduce the charging overload by
using the accessories. Turn on the lamps and radio, set
the climate control on AUTO and the fan speed on HI,
and turn the rear window defogger on. You can monitor
battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO (SKIP)
button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts when the
engine is running.
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW
- 6: This message will
appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this
message appears immediately after starting, it is possible
that the generator can still recharge the battery. The
battery should recharge and may take a few hours to do
so. Consider using an auxiliary charger to boost the
battery after returning home or to a final destination.
(Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions when
using a battery charger.)

2-85
TRACTION SUSPENDED - 56: This message
displays when the traction control system has been
temporarily shut off because your vehicle's brakes have
overheated. This message does not indicate a problem
with your vehicle's traction control system. After a
few minutes, the traction control system will be
available again and the TRACTION READY message
will appear.
TRANS FLUID RESET
- 48: With the engine not
running and the ignition on, press and hold the OFF
and rear defog buttons until the TRANS FLUID
RESET message appears on the DIC (between five
and 20 seconds).
TRANS HOT IDLE ENG

indicates that the transaxle fluid in your vehicle is too
hot. Stop and allow your vehicle to idle until it cools
down or until this message is removed.TRUNK OPEN
- 24: This message indicates that the
trunk is open when your vehicle's ignition is in RUN.
TURN SIGNAL ON

after driving about 1 mile (1.6 km/h), that you have the
turn signal on. A multiple chime will also sound when
this message is displayed.
VEHICLE OVERSPEED
- 52: This message is
displayed when the vehicle speed exceeds a certain limit
as required by some export countries. A continuous
chime will also sound when this message is displayed.
VEHICLE SPEED LIMITED TO XXX MPH
(KM/H)
- 113: A failure in the suspension control
system has occurred when this message appears. The
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) determines the speed
your vehicle is limited to. Have your vehicle serviced if
this message appears. (The XXX indicates the speed
your vehicle is limited to.)
