Universal Remote System
Programming
On vehicles with this feature there
are three round Light Emitting
Diode (LED) indicator lights above
the Universal Home Remote
buttons, follow the instructions
below.
This system provides a way to
replace up to three remote control
transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door
openers, security systems, and
home automation devices. Do not use this system with any
garage door opener that does not
have the stop and reverse feature.
This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before
April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program the
transmitter. Because of the steps
involved, it may be helpful to
have another person assist with
programming the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original
remote control transmitter for
use in other vehicles, as well as,
for future programming. Only the
original remote control transmitter
is needed for Fixed Code
programming. The programmed
buttons should be erased when the
vehicle is sold or the lease ends.

“Erasing Universal Home
Remote Buttons” in this section.

the Universal Home Remote
System, call 1-866-572-2728
or go to learcar2u.com.
Most garage door openers sold

in accessory mode. See Ignition
Positions on page 9‑20 for
additional information.
Programming can only occur
when the vehicle is running or
in accessory mode.
2. From inside the vehicle, press the two outside buttons
at the same time for one to
two seconds, and immediately
release them.
3. Locate in the garage, thegarage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit). Locate
the “Learn” or“Smart” button.
It can usually be found where
the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit
and may be a colored button.
Press this button. After pressing
this button, complete the
following steps in less than
30 seconds.

2. To verify that the garage dooropener is a Fixed Code unit,
remove the battery cover on the
hand held transmitter supplied
by the manufacturer of the
garage door opener motor.
If there are a row of dip switches
similar to the graphic above,
the garage door opener is a
Fixed Code unit. If you do not
see a row of dip switches, return
to the previous section for

Remote –Rolling Code. The hand held transmitter
can have between eight to
12 dip switches depending on
the brand of transmitter.
The garage door opener receiver
(motor head unit) could also
have a row of dip switches that
can be used when programming
the Universal Home Remote.
If the total number of switches
on the motor head and hand
held transmitter are different,
or if the dip switch settings are
different, use the dip switch
settings on the motor head unit
to program the Universal Home
Remote. The motor head dip
switch settings can also be used
when the original hand held
transmitter is not available.
