4. Firmly press and hold the programmed
HomeLink button for five seconds, and
then release it. Perform this operation
two times to activate the door. If the
door does not activate, press and hold
the just-trained HomeLink button and
observe the indicator light.
If the indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and your
device should activate when the
HomeLink button is pressed and released.
NOTE
To program the remaining two HomeLink
buttons, begin with "Programming" ― step 1.
If the indicator light blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to a
constant light, continue with
Programming steps 5 7 to complete
the programming of a rolling code
equipped device (most commonly a
garage door opener).
5. At the garage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate
the learn or smart button. This can
usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the motor-
head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the learn or
smart button. (The name and color of
the button may vary by manufacturer.)
NOTE
There are 30 seconds in which to initiate step

7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press,
hold for two seconds and release the
programmed HomeLink button. Repeat
the press/hold/release sequence a

brand of the garage door opener (or
other rolling code equipped device),
repeat this sequence a third time to
complete the programming process.
HomeLink should now activate your
rolling code equipped device.

qGate 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
Programming HomeLink step 2 with
the following:
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device
during the "cycling" process to prevent
possible overheating.
