Troubleshooting HomeLink
When programming a HomeLink device, the
touchscreen walks you through a two-part
programming process:
1.
Model S 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 S has
learned the remote and you can touch
Continue
on the touchscreen. If the
headlights do not flash, refer to the
following guidelines.
2.
The device's receiver learns Model S. The
touchscreen instructs you to press the
LEARN
button on the device's receiver. If
training the receiver does not work, refer
to the following guidelines.
Note:
Only devices that are equipped with
a “rolling code” remote need to learn
Model S. If you have an old device that is
not equipped with a "rolling code" remote,
the device does not need to learn Model S
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.
•
Hold the remote against the front bumper,
with the button pressed, approximately 6
in (15 cm) to the left of the Tesla emblem.
In some cases you must hold the button
on the remote for up to three minutes.
•
Check compatibility of the remote by
contacting the HomeLink manufacturer
(
).
After programming, the device does not
work
•
Park Model S with its front bumper as
close as possible to the HomeLink device
(garage door, gate, etc).
•
Make sure you haven’t reached the device
receiver's limit of learned remotes/cars.
Most receivers can learn up to five
remotes/cars. If the receiver's memory is
full, you must clear the memory and
restart the programming process. For
instructions on how to clear the receiver's
memory, refer to the owner
documentation provided with the
HomeLink device.
•
Make sure you are pressing the receiver's
LEARN
button. Most receivers have two
buttons and a LED. One button is a
RESET
button and the other is a
LEARN
button.
Pressing the
LEARN
button usually causes
the LED to flash. For instructions on how
to put the receiver into learning mode,
refer to the owner documentation
provided with the HomeLink device.
•
Most devices stay in learning mode for
only three to five minutes. Immediately
after pressing the device's
LEARN
button,
follow the instructions displayed on the
touchscreen.
