Jeep Wrangler: UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HOMELINK®) — IF EQUIPPED / Canadian/Gate Operator Programming
For programming transmitters in Canada/
United States that require the transmitter
signals to “time-out” after several seconds of
transmission.
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.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the
cycling process to prevent possible overheating
of the garage door or gate motor.
- Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
- Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink® indicator
light in view.
- Continue to press and hold the HomeLink®
button, while you press and release
(“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter every two seconds until HomeLink® has
successfully accepted the frequency signal.
The indicator light will flash slowly and then
rapidly when fully trained.
- Watch for the HomeLink® indicator to
change flash rates. When it changes, it is
programmed. It may take up to 30 seconds
or longer in rare cases. The garage door
may open and close while you are
programming.
- Press and hold the programmed
HomeLink® button and observe the
indicator light.
NOTE:
- If the indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and the garage
door/device should activate when the
HomeLink® button is pressed.
- To program the two remaining
HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step
for each remaining button. DO NOT erase
the channels.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/
device for programming, plug it back in at this
time.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLink® Button (Canadian/Gate Operator)
To reprogram a channel that has been
previously trained, follow these steps:
- Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
- Press and hold the desired HomeLink®
button until the indicator light begins to
flash after 20 seconds. Do not release the
button.
- Without releasing the button, proceed with
“Canadian/Gate Operator Programming”
step 2 and follow all remaining steps.
To reprogram a single HomeLink® button that
has been previously trained, without erasing all
the channels, follow the procedure below. Be
sure to determine if the new device you want to
program the HomeLink® button to has a rolling
code or a non-rolling code...
