HomeLink Universal Transmitter
1. This step erases all previously learned
codes. Perform this step before
training the transmitter for the very
first time. Press and hold the two
outside buttons until the red light
in the transmitter flashes
(approximately 20 seconds).
Release the buttons.
2. Hold the end of the garage door
opener remote control 1 to 3
inches from the HomeLink
transmitter. Make sure you are
not blocking your view of the red
light in the transmitter.
3. Select the transmitter button you
want to train.
4. Press the button on the remote
control and the button on the
transmitter at the same time. Hold
down both buttons.
Instruments and Controls
5. The red light in the transmitter
should begin flashing. It will flash
slowly at first, then rapidly.
6. When the red light flashes rapidly,
release both buttons. The
transmitter should have learned
the code from the remote control.
7. Test the transmitter button by
pushing it. It should operate the
garage door.
8. Repeat these steps to train the
other two transmitter buttons to
operate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate,
security system, etc.).
Canadian Owners:
The remote control you are training
from may stop transmitting after two
seconds. This is not long enough for
the HomeLink transmitter to learn
the code. Release and press the
button on the remote control every
two seconds until the transmitter has
learned the code.
If you are programming the
transmitter to operate a garage door
or gate, it is recommended that you
unplug the motor for that device
during programming. Repeatedly
pressing the remote control button
could burn out the motor.
The HomeLink transmitter stores
the code in a permanent memory.
There should be no need to retrain
the transmitter if your vehicle's
battery goes dead or is disconnected.
