Programming the GDO for Rolling Code Receivers
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 GMC Acadia, 2011 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2011 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
If the programming procedure is unsuccessful, it may be necessary to perform the Erasing Channels procedure first.
This procedure will learn a rolling code garage door opener to the GDO transmitter. The learn process must be completed within 30 seconds.
- Press the two outside buttons of the GDO for one to two seconds, then immediately release them.
- Locate the "Learn" or "Smart" button on the garage door opener receiver (located on the garage door opener motor-head unit). It is often found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit and may be a colored button. Refer to the garage door opener operator's manual or call 1-866-572-2728 for assistance. Press the "Learn" or "Smart" button. The garage door opener operator's manual may provide assistance in determining when the unit is in learn mode.
- Immediately return to the GDO transmitter in the vehicle. Press and hold the button that is to be learned; the LED above the button will begin to flash slowly. When the garage door moves, immediately release the button. The LED will flash rapidly until programming is complete.
- Press the button used during the learn operation again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.
The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types of garage door openers. If the GDO LED does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the garage door opener. Call 1-866-572-2728 to address compatibility concerns.
