Programming A Rolling Code
For programming garage door openers that
were manufactured after 1995:
These garage door openers can be identified by
th

e “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where
the hanging antenna is attached to the garage
door opener. It is NOT the button that is
normally used to open and close the door.
The name and color of the button may vary by
m a

nufacturer.

1. P
lace the ignition in the ON/RUN position.

N
OTE:
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
p l

ace the ignition in the RUN position with the
engine ON. Make sure while programming
HomeLink® with the engine ON that your
vehicle is outside of your garage, or that the
garage door remains open at all times.
2. P lace the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3
inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
H o

meLink® button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink® indicator
light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you w
ant to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.

4. C ontinue to hold both buttons and observe
t
he indicator light. The HomeLink® indicator
will flash slowly and then rapidly after

CANADIAN/GATE OPERATOR
P
ROGRAMMING
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
t r

ansmitter signals to time-out (or quit) after
several seconds of transmission, 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
c
y

cling process to prevent possible overheating
of the garage door or gate motor.

1. P lace the ignition in the ON/RUN position.

N
OTE:
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
p l

ace the ignition in the ON/RUN position with
the engine on. Make sure while programming
HomeLink® with the engine on that your vehicle
is outside of your garage, or that the garage
door remains open at all times.
2. P lace the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3
inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
H o

meLink® button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink® indicator
light in view.

3. Continue to push and hold the HomeLink® b
utton while you push and release (“cycle”) your
hand-held transmitter every two seconds until
HomeLink® has successfully accepted the
frequency signal. The indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.

When parking on a hill, it is important to turn the
front wheels toward the curb on a downhill
grade and away from the curb on an uphill
grade. For vehicles equipped with an automatic
transmission, apply the parking brake before
placing the gear selector in PARK, otherwise the
load on the transmission locking mechanism
may make it difficult to move the gear selector
out of PARK. The parking brake should always
be applied whenever the driver is not in the
vehicle.
