8. Return to the vehicle. Firmly press and hold the
programmed HomeLink
®
button for two seconds,
then release. Repeat the press/hold/release
sequence a second time, and depending on the
brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling
code device), repeat this sequence a third time
to complete the programming.
HomeLink
®
should now activate your rolling-code
equipped device.
To program the remaining two HomeLink
®
buttons, begin
with Step 2 of “Programming HomeLink
®
.” You do not
want to repeat Step 1, as this will erase all previous
programming.
Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter
signals to “time out” or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for
HomeLink
®
to pick up the signal during programming.
Similarly, some U.S. gate operators are manufactured
to “time out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada, or you are having difficulty
programming a gate operator by using the “Programming
HomeLink
®
” procedures (regardless of where you live),
replace Step 3 under “Programming HomeLink
®
” with
the following:
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
®
button while
you press and release every two seconds (cycle) your
hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has been
successfully accepted by HomeLink
®
. The indicator light
will flash slowly at first and then rapidly. Proceed with
Step 4 under “Programming HomeLink
®
” to complete.
Using HomeLink
®
Press and hold the appropriate HomeLink
®
button for at
least half of a second. The indicator light will come
on while the signal is being transmitted.
