NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink®for the first
time. Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or,

Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995. These Garage
Door Openers can be identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where the
hanging antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener. It is NOT the button that is
normally used to open and close the door. The name and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink®button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The HomeLink®
indicator will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink®has received the fre-
quency signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator
light changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener motor. Firmly push and release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
button.

button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink®button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The HomeLink®
indicator will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink®has received the fre-
quency signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator
light changes from slow to rapid.
5. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink®button and observe the indicator light. If
the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the garage door
