How to Program Garage Door Openers to HomeLink^®

First, you’ll need to identify the model of your garage door opener before using these instructions to program it to HomeLink®. To identify the serial number (shown as S/N), look on the back or front of the opener, depending on the model, to find the first five digits of the serial number rs. To program, it should be 11291 or greater. For any serial number smaller than 11291, please visit these HomeLink® programming instructions.

• Clear the garage door area.
• Use fresh remote batteries.
• Some steps are time-sensitive.

Step 1: Garage Door Remote Programming

• If it’s green, proceed to the next step.
• Hold down your chosen button until both red and green lights show up.
• Let go of the button.
• Quickly press and release the button twice.
• The light should turn red, indicating readiness for programming.
• Now your remote is ready to connect to your HomeLink system.

Step 2: Garage Door Opener Programming

• Press and hold the square program button on the garage door opener until the blue LED light appears, then release.
• The long LED light will flash purple.
• Press your desired HomeLink button for one second and then release.
• Press the same button again for one second and release.
• Both the long LED and round LED lights on the opener will turn blue and off.
• Press the HomeLink button again to test, which should activate the garage door.
• Your HomeLink is now programmed for your Overhead Door garage door opener.

Note: If you can’t locate the program button, refer to the operation manual.

Step 3: HomeLink Programming

• Turn on your vehicle ignition and position your remote transmitter 2 inches away from your HomeLink buttons.
• Choose the HomeLink button you want to use.
• Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and the garage door opener remote until the HomeLink indicator light changes from flashing slowly to either solid or flashing rapidly. (10 seconds)
