Training a Garage Door Opener Equipped With "Rolling Codes"

  1. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the "learn" or "smart" button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit.
  2. Firmly press and release the "learn" or "smart" button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are 30 seconds to initiate step 3.
  3. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for 2 seconds and release the programmed universal transmitter button. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence a second time, and depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process.
