• If the device does not operate, continue with “Programming a New HomeLink”
steps 5-7 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device.
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 (see the Garage Door Opener manual to identify the “Learn Button”).

Note: A ladder and/or second person may simplify the following steps.
6. Firmly press and release the “Learn” or “Smart” button. (The name and color of the button
may vary by manufacturer.) There are typically 30 seconds to initiate step 7.
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 second time, and,
depending on the 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.
In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions, additional
HomeLink information and programming videos can be found online at

Gate Operator /
Canadian / European 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.
Also some European transmitters may behave in a similar manner. The indicator LED
on the hand-held transmitter will go off when the device times out indicating that it has
finished transmitting.
