Q: Why is HomeLink® not programming?
Why is HomeLink® not programming?
The HomeLink® system in your car is a handy convenience tool, but it’s not completely foolproof. If you’re experiencing problems programming the buttons, try these steps:
Replace the batteries in your remote (the one for the garage door, security system or other system you’re attempting to program HomeLink to operate).
Turn the remote around (make sure the batteries are facing away from HomeLink).
Move the remote closer to HomeLink (no less than three inches away).
