▼Gate operator/Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter 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.

If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
by using the “Programming” procedures
(regardless of where you live), replace

▼Garage Door Two-Way
Communication
The garage door two-way communication
is a function that communicates with the
garage door opener and indicates whether
the garages door is open or closed using
the indicator lights in the rear view mirror.
It can indicate the status of the garage door
within a range up-to 250 m (820 ft).
NOTE
The communication range may shorten
depending on obstructions.
Programming two-way communication
Within five seconds after programming a
new HomeLink button, both of the garage
door status indicator lights will flash
rapidly in green indicating that the garage
door two-way communication has been
established. If the garage door status
indicator lights flash, the two-way
communication programming is complete.

If the garage door status indicator lights do
not flash, the two-
way communication
programming is not completed. For
