NOTE:HomeLink® is disabled when the Vehicle Secu-
rity Alarm is active.
Before You Begin Programming HomeLink®
Ensure your vehicle is parked outside of the garage
before you begin programming.
For efficient programming and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal it is recommended that a new bat-
tery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device
that is being programmed to the HomeLink® system.
Erase all channels before you begin programming. To
erase the channels place the ignition in the ON/RUN
position and press and hold the two outside HomeLink®
buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds. The Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will display “CLEAR-
ING CHANNELS.” Release the buttons when the EVIC
displays “CHANNELS CLEARED.”
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, on the Internet at
www.HomeLink.com for information or assistance.

2. Place the hand - held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8cm) away from the HomeLink® button you wish to
program.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink® button you want to program and the hand - held
transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHAN-
NEL # TRAINED,” then release both buttons.
NOTE: •It may take up to 30 seconds or longer in some cases
for the channel to train.
• If the EVIC displays “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat from
Step 2.
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/device motor.
Firmly press and release the “LEARN” or “TRAIN-
ING” button. On some garage door openers/devices
there may be a light that blinks when the garage door
opener/device is in the LEARN/TRAIN mode.
NOTE: You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next
step after the LEARN button has been pressed.
6. Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLink® button twice (holding the button for two
seconds each time). The EVIC will display “CHAN-
NEL # TRANSMIT.” If the garage door opener/device
activates, programming is complete.
NOTE: If the garage door opener/device does not acti-
vate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to
complete the training.
To program the remaining two HomeLink® buttons,
repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT
erase the channels.

cm) away from the HomeLink® button you wish to
program.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink® button you want to program and the hand - held
transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHAN-

ming A Non-Rolling Code” step 2 and follow all
remaining steps.
Canadian/Gate Operator Programming
For programming transmitters in Canada/United States
that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after
several seconds of transmission.
Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to time-out (or quit) after several seconds of trans-
mission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink®
to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to
time-out in the same manner.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling
process to prevent possible overheating of the garage
door or gate motor.
1. Turn the ignition switch to 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.

3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink®button while you press and release (“cycle”), your
hand - held transmitter every two seconds.
4. Continue to hold buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHAN-
NEL # TRAINED,” then release both buttons.
NOTE: •It may take up to 30 seconds or longer in some cases
for the channel to train.
• If the EVIC displays “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat from
Step 2.
5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink® button. The EVIC will display “CHANNEL # TRANSMIT.” If
the device is plugged in and activates, programming is
complete.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for
programming, plug it back in at this time.Reprogramming A Single HomeLink® Button
To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button until the EVIC displays “CHANNEL # TRAINING” Do not
release the button.
3. Without releasing the button proceed with
“Canadian/Gate Operator Programming” Step 2 and
follow all remaining steps.
Using HomeLink®
To operate, press and release the programmed
HomeLink® button. Activation will now occur for the
programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate opera-
tor, security system, entry door lock, home/office light-
ing, etc.,). The hand-held transmitter of the device may
also be used at any time.

Security
It is advised to erase all channels before you sell or turn
in your vehicle.
To erase the channels press and hold the two outside
HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up 20 seconds. The
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will display
“CLEARING CHANNELS.” Release the buttons when
the EVIC displays “CHANNELS CLEARED.”
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is disabled when
the Vehicle Security Alarm is active.
Troubleshooting Tips
If you are having trouble programming HomeLink®,
here are some of the most common solutions:
•
Replace the battery in the original hand-held transmitter.
•Press the LEARN button on the Garage Door Opener
to complete the training for a Rolling Code. •
Did you unplug the device for programming and
remember to plug it back in?
