Canadian/Gate Operator Programming

For programming transmitters in Canada/United States
that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after
several seconds of transmission.

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.

It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling
process to prevent possible overheating of the garage door
or gate motor.

1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.

2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm)

away from the HomeLink button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.

3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button, while

you press and release (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-
mitter every two seconds until HomeLink has success-
fully accepted the frequency signal. The indicator light
will flash slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.

4. Watch for the HomeLink indicator to change flash rates.

When it changes, it is programmed. It may take up to 30
seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage door may
open and close while you are programming.

5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink button and

observe the indicator light.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:

• If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming

is complete and the garage door/device should acti-
vate when the HomeLink button is pressed.

• To program the two remaining HomeLink buttons,

repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT
erase the channels.

If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for
programming, plug it back in at this time.

Reprogramming A Single HomeLink Button (Canadian/
Gate Operator)

To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:

1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.

2. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button until the

indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. Do not
release the button.

3. Without releasing the button, proceed with “Canadian/

Gate Operator Programming” step 2 and follow all
remaining steps.

Using HomeLink

To operate, push and release the programmed HomeLink
button. Activation will now occur for the programmed
device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator, security
system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.). The
hand-held transmitter of the device may also be used at
any time.

Security

It is advised to erase all channels before you sell or turn in
your vehicle.

To do this, push and hold the two outside buttons for 20
seconds until the orange indicator flashes. Note that all
channels will be erased. Individual channels cannot be
erased.

The HomeLink Universal Transceiver is disabled when the
Vehicle Security Alarm is active.
