Reprogramming Basic HomeLink® Transceiver Codes (Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) Equipped Vehicles)

To program a device to the HomeLink® transceiver using a button previously trained, follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® transceiver button. DO NOT  release the button. The EVIC will display CHANNEL X TRANSMIT for 20 seconds and then change to CHANNEL X TRAINING. Without releasing the HomeLink® transceiver button, proceed to step  2.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 3-8 cm (1-3 inches) away from the HomeLink® transceiver button while keeping the EVIC display in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink® transceiver button that you want to train and the hand-held transmitter buttons. Do not release the buttons until step 4 has been completed.  The EVIC will display CHANNEL X TRAINING once the HomeLink® transceiver is programmed the EVIC will display CHANNEL X TRAINED. X refers to the desired channel being trained (1,2 or 3).
   NOTE:

   Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace this Reprogramming Step 3 with procedures noted in the "Gate Operator/Canadian Programming" service information.

4. Once CHANNEL X TRAINED is displayed on the EVIC, release both buttons. Programming is now complete. When the HomeLink® transceiver button is subsequently pressed, CHANNEL X TRANSMIT is displayed on the EVIC and your device should be activated, (garage door should open).
   NOTE:

   If the EVIC display shows CHANNEL X TRANSMIT (where X is channel 1,2 or 3) but your device does not activate, the device may be equipped with a rolling code system. Continue with the following steps 5 through 7 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener manufactured after 1995). The assistance of a second person may make the following programming steps quicker and easier.

5. 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.
6. 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 7.

7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release  the reprogrammed HomeLink® transceiver 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 reprogramming.

   The HomeLink® transceiver should now activate your rolling code equipped device.
