3. Press and hold the newly programmed
Universal Remote system button for
five seconds while watching the indicator
light and garage door activation.
If the indicator light stays on
continuously or the garage door
moves when the button is pressed,
then programming is complete. There
is no need to complete Steps 4 6.
If the indicator light does not come
on or the garage door does not
move, a second button press may be
required. For a second time, press
and hold the newly programmed
button for five seconds. If the
indicator light is continuously lit,
or the garage door moves,
programming is complete.
If the indicator light flashes rapidly
and the garage door does not move,
continue with programming
Steps 4 6.

button. Step 6 must be completed within
30 seconds of pressing this button.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press
and hold the trained Universal Remote
system button for two seconds and
release. Repeat the press/hold/release
sequence up to three times to complete
the training process.
The Universal Remote system should now

Repeat the process for programming the
two remaining buttons.
Radio Signals for Some Gate Operators
For questions or programming help, see
www.homelink.com/gm or call
1-800-355-3515. For calls placed outside the
U.S., Canada, or Puerto Rico, international
rates will apply and may differ based on
landline or mobile phone.
Some radio-frequency laws and gate
operators require transmitter signals to time
out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough
for the Universal Remote system to pick up
the signal during programming.
If the programming did not work, replace
Step 2 under Programming the Universal
Remote System with the following:
Press and hold the Universal Remote system
button while pressing and releasing the
hand-held transmitter button every
two seconds until the signal has been
successfully accepted by the Universal
Remote system. The Universal Remote
system indicator light will flash slowly at
first and then change to a rapid flash or
continuous solid-light. Proceed with Step 3
under Programming the Universal Remote
System to complete.
