I had trouble getting mine programmed as well but now I'm set to go. I went to the Homelink website and the site suggested putting the key in the ACC position while programming. I did that and positioned my truck facing the garage opener. After I did this everything worked fine. I think the main problem I had at first, which the instructions don't point out, is when you want to open your garage door you have to hold the Homelink button down for about a millisecond. If you just quickly press the button an activity light flashes and nothing happens. I always just hit the button until the light came on then let go and therefor it wouldn't open. The light confused me into thinking that I had pressed the button long enough to open the door.Atlas said:Has anyone had issues programming their Homelink to open their garage door? I have one of the newer Genie systems that uses the rolling codes. I have tried resetting both the Titan's Homelink and the Genie itself to no avail. Am able to get my wifes Homelink in her Suburban to work with no problems.
Now that I have the Homelink programmed, I love it. It has a longer range than my old handheld remote that always seemed to fall somewhere where I couldn't find it. Now I don't have to fiddle with changing out dead batteries either.
I programmed one of the other buttons to open my in-laws garage door since they live down the block and I take their trash to the dumpster a couple of times a week. It is a lot easier using the Homelink to do this rather than pulling out a key to go through the house to get to the garage.
