Resetting the Location of the
HomeLink Device
If you experience situations in which you
sometimes drive up to your HomeLink device
and it doesn't open, or the HomeLink icon on
the touchscreen's status bar does not display
the dropdown when you approach the device,
you may need to reset the device's location.
To do so, park as close as possible to the
HomeLink device (garage door, gate, etc.) and
display the HomeLink settings page by
touching the HomeLink icon on the top of the
touchscreen. Touch the name of the device
you want to reset, then Reset Location.
Deleting a Device
To delete a HomeLink device, touch the
HomeLink icon on the top of the touchscreen.
Touch the name of the device you want to
delete, then touch Delete.
Note: You can also perform a factory reset to
erase your HomeLink settings, along with all
other personal data (saved addresses, music
favorites, imported contacts, etc.). See
on page 133.
Note: For security reasons, delete your
HomeLink devices if you sell your Model X.
Troubleshooting HomeLink
When programming a HomeLink device, the
touchscreen walks you through a two-part
programming process:
1.
Model X records the signal from the
remote. The touchscreen instructs you to
stand in front of the vehicle, point the
remote at the front bumper and press and
hold the button until the headlights flash.
When the headlights flash, Model X has
learned the remote and you can touch
Continue on the touchscreen. If the
headlights do not flash, refer to the
guidelines in
on
page 158.
2. The device's receiver learns Model X. The
touchscreen instructs you to press the
LEARN button on the device's receiver. If
training the receiver does not work, refer
Note: Only devices that are equipped with
a “rolling code” remote need to learn
Model X. If you have an old device that is
not equipped with a "rolling code" remote,
the device does not need to learn Model X
and you can skip this part of the process.
You can also skip this part if your receiver
is "Quick-Train" compatible.
Headlights do not flash
•
Check the batteries in the remote. It is a
good idea to replace the batteries before
you start programming.
•
Standing in front of the vehicle, press and
hold the button on your device's remote
with the remote approximately 5 cm in
front of the Tesla emblem. In some cases
you must hold the button on the remote
for up to three minutes.
•
If you see a screen called “Train the
receiver” while programming the device,
remember that this is a time-sensitive
step. After pressing the Learn/Program/
Smart button on the device's remote, you
only have approximately 30 seconds to
return to your vehicle, press Continue, and
then press the trained HomeLink device
name twice. Consider having an assistant
help with this step.

questions, contact HomeLink

After programming, the device does not work
•
Park Model X with its front bumper as
close as possible to the garage door, gate,
etc. that you are trying to program.
•
Make sure you are pressing the receiver's
Learn/Program/Smart button. For
instructions on how to put the receiver
into learning mode, refer to the owner
documentation provided with the garage
door, gate, etc. that you are trying to
program.
•
Most devices stay in learning mode for
only three to five minutes. Immediately
after pressing the device's Learn/
Program/Smart button, follow the
instructions displayed on the vehicle's
touchscreen.
