Dodge Charger: UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HOMELINK®) / 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 (RF) 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 US
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 Home- Link® 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.
Programming HomeLink® To A Miscellaneous Device
Follow the procedure on programming HomeLink® to a garage door opener. Be sure
