HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
pg. 186 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
HomeLink® is an  advanced system that can be  programmed to learn the codes of three different  remote controlled-
devices (e.g., garage door openers, remote lighting, entry door lock). HomeLink®'s sun visor-mounted transceiver,
powered  by your car's electrical system, may then be  used in place of your hand -held remote controls.
NOTE: For your security, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is designed to not  function if you lock your car
from  the outside .
Programming the transceiver
1. The ignition switch must  be  turned to the "accessory" position (II) before programming  the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver.
2. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two outside buttons  (buttons 1 and  3 in the
illustration) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink®'s indicator light begins
to flash.  Then release the buttons.
3. Hold your hand -held transmitter (garage door opener, for example) 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from  the
HomeLink® surface,  keeping the indicator light in view.  For placement questions, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1-
800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
4. Using two hands, push and  hold both your hand -held transmitter's button and  the transceiver  button you wish to
program. The indicator light will flash  first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashing tells you the HomeLink® button has
ProCarManuals.com 
Page 125 of 139

been successfully programmed. Release both buttons.
5. If you are programming  a  rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage door opener or entry door lock), refer  to
"Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the programming  process.
Repeat steps 3 and  4 to program the other two transceiver  buttons.
If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver to learn your
hand -held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
WARNING!
If you use HomeLink® to open  a  garage door or gate, be  sure no one  is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any  garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any  garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982) A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an  object,  signalling  the door to
"stop" and  "reverse" does not meet  current federal safety standards. Using a  garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death. For more information on this  matter, call  toll-free 1-800-355-
3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
pg. 187 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
NOTE - Canadian residents:
During programming,  your hand -held transmitter may automatically  stop transmitting. To successfully train
HomeLink®, continue  to hold the HomeLink® button. At the same time, repeatedly press and  hold your hand -held
transmitter's button at two -second intervals until HomeLink® has learned  your transmitter's code. The HomeLink®
indicator light will flash  first slowly, and  then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully programmed.
Determining if your garage door uses a rolling code
Determine, in one  of the following ways, if your garage door uses a  rolling code system and  is manufactured after
1996:
Refer to the garage door opener owner's  manual  for verification.
If your hand -held transmitter appears to program the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver but the programmed button
does not activate the garage door, your garage door opener may have a  rolling code.
Press the programmed HomeLink® button. If the garage door opener has the rolling code feature, the HomeLink®
indicator light flashes rapidly and  then glows steadily after approximately 2 seconds.
To train a rolling code  garage door opener,  follow these instructions after programming  the desired transceiver
button according  to "Programming the transceiver." The help of a  second person may make training easier.
1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener motor head  unit . The location and  color of the training button
may vary. If you encounter  difficulty, refer  to the garage door opener owner's  manual  or call  toll-free 1-800-355-3515
(Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
2. Press the "training" button on the garage door opener motor head unit until the "training" light comes on.
3. Press and  release the programmed HomeLink® button. Press and  release the programmed HomeLink® button a
second  time to complete the training process. Some garage door openers may require you to do this  procedure a  third
time  to complete the training.
The programmed button on your HomeLink® Universal Transceiver should now operate  your garage door opener. The
ProCarManuals.com 
Page 126 of 139

original hand -held transmitter can also be  used, as desired, to operate  the garage door.
The remaining two HomeLink® buttons  can be  programmed in the same way. In the event of any  problems in
programming  the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, call  toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
Operating the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can be  used in place of your hand -held transmitters.
To operate,  the key  must  be  turned to the "accessory" position (II) or the engine must  be  running. Press the
programmed HomeLink® button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lighting, home security system,
etc.
Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be  used at any  time.
Erasing programmed buttons
Individual buttons  cannot be  erased. To erase all three programmed buttons:
1. Turn  the ignition key  to the "accessory" position (II).
2. Hold down the two outside buttons  on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until
HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash.
3. Release both buttons.
The HomeLink® buttons  can be  reprogrammed  using the procedures  described on the previous  page.
(HomeLink® information continues on the next page) 
pg. 188 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
Reprogramming a single  HomeLink® button
1. Press and  hold the desired HomeLink® button. Do not release  the button until step 3 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash  slowly (after approximately 20 seconds), position your hand -held
transmitter 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from  the HomeLink® surface.
3. Press and  hold the hand -held transmitter button. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash  first slowly, then rapidly.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly, release both buttons.
The previously programmed device has now been erased and  the new device can be  activated by pressing the
HomeLink® button that has just  been programmed. This procedure will not affect any  other programmed HomeLink®
buttons.
NOTE:
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming  procedures  (e.g., if you purchase a  new car).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons  on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver when you sell your
car.
Metallic sun protection films should not be  used on any  windows in a  car equipped with HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere  with the transceiver's function.
