qGate operator/Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time-out (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed to time-out in the same
manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
by using the Programming procedures
(regardless of where you live), replace
Programming HomeLink step 3 with
the following:
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device
during the cyclingprocess to prevent
possible overheating.
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
button while you press and release
every two seconds (cycle) your hand-
held transmitter until the frequency signal
has successfully been accepted by
HomeLink. (The indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly.)
Proceed with Programming step 4 to
complete.
qOperating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink button
to operate a programmed device. The
code will continue being transmitted for a
maximum of 20 seconds.
qReprogramming the HomeLink
system
To program a device to HomeLink using a
HomeLink button previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink button, proceed with
Programming - step 2.
qErasing Programmed HomeLink
Buttons
To erase the existing programming from
all three operating channels, press and
hold the two outside buttons (
, )

HomeLink indicator light begins to flash

Verif y that the programming has been
erased when you resell the vehicle.
