Here's the Homelink site--they have directions (pretty much same as owner's manual, but a bit more manufacturer specific
Http://www.homelink.com/home/global.taf If you have an older opener (rolling codes or fixed codes) like I do, you need to follow the below instructions carefully Check the frequency of the deviceâÃÂÃÂs handheld transmitter (usually found on the back). HomeLink is compatible with radio-frequency devices operating between 288-433MHz. Put a brand new battery in the handheld transmitter. During the programming process the battery's energy tends to drain (more so with an older battery). A new battery will increase the speed and accuracy in which the handheld transmitter sends its signal to HomeLink. Retrain HomeLink holding the handheld transmitter at different lengths and angles from the HomeLink button you are trying to program. Try 4-6 inches away at a different angle. Cycle the handheld transmitter during programming: Press and hold the HomeLink button while you press and release the handheld transmitter every 2 seconds until the indicator light changes from a slow blink to a rapid flash. To verify HomeLink has programmed, press and hold the HomeLink button and observe the indicator light: If the indicator light remains solid, it has picked up the signal and should operate the device. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and turns solid, HomeLink has successfully picked up the rolling code signal. Please follow the rolling code instructions outlined in the "Programming a garage door opener" section to complete the process. If the indicator light remains a slow blink, HomeLink has not picked up the signal from the handheld remote. Try programming the button again or choose another button to program.

just FYI to add a little more detail - "Programming a garage door opener" simply says to press the "learn" button on the door opener itself and then within 30 seconds press the home-link in the car to sync them up. [u2b]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6AR0x5Yl2Y[/u2b] |
