Programming Common HomeLink® Transmitter Codes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Dodge Caliber. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run the vehicle's exhaust while training the transceiver. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
WARNING: Your motorized door or gate may open and close while you are training the HomeLink® Transceiver if the vehicle is in range of the motorized device. Do not train the HomeLink® transceiver if people or pets are in the path of the door or gate. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
NOTE: When programming a garage door opener, it is advised to park outside the garage. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink® for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
NOTE: If programing the HomeLink® transceiver is unsuccessful using the following procedure, refer to the Owner's Manual for the current customer assistance phone number.
  1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons, and release only when the indicator light begins to flash (after 20 seconds). Do not  hold the buttons for longer than 30 seconds and do not  repeat Step 1 to program a second and/or third hand-held transmitter to the remaining two HomeLink® buttons.
  2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 3-8 cm (1-3 inches) away from the HomeLink® buttons while keeping the indicator light in view.
  3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink® buttons that you want to train and the hand-held transmitter button. Do not release the buttons until Step 4 has been completed. 
    NOTE: Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace this Programming Step 3 with procedures noted in the Canadian Programming information. See Canadian Programming/Gate Programming .
  4. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink® successfully receives the frequency signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator light changes from the slow to the rapid flash.
  5. Press and hold the just trained HomeLink® button and observe the indicator light. If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete  and your device should activate when the HomeLink® button is pressed and released.
    NOTE: To program the remaining two HomeLink® buttons, do not repeat Step 1.  Begin with Step  2.

    If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a constant light  , continue with Steps 6-8 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener).

  6. 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.
  7. Firmly press and release the "learn" or "smart" button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
    NOTE: There are 30 seconds in which to initiate Step 8.
  8. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the programmed HomeLink® button for two seconds, and then 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.

    HomeLink® should now activate your rolling code equipped device.

NOTE: To program the remaining two HomeLink® buttons, do not repeat Step 1.  Begin with Step  2.
