I think the problem is that Ford and other manufacturers didn’t think we would clear the first procedure after I didn’t work. Had I not kept clearing the first training method, it would have worked. Thanks for the help. I’m commenting multiple times and liking to get this more relevancy in the algorithm. Excellent video. This is why the KZread platform/community is fantastic: the PEOPLE!!!

FINALLY! SOMEONE ACTUALLY BROKE THE CODE!!! Our last three vehicles, I just gave up and assumed the opener just wasn't gonna marry yet another remote. Thank you thank you thank you for figuring out the right combination!!! So much misinformation on here about one step processes that do not work. We can put the clickers in a junk drawer now 🎉. My door opener is a Legacy btw, so this process works with it too. Thanks again!

Thank you internet man, youve been a huge help

Adding this text so people with the same problem find your answer, because it worked. This worked for pairing a Chamberlain 1/2hp garage door opener with red learning button (rolling code) to Homelink on a 2010 Toyota Venza. I did all of the above, plus I changed the CR2032 battery in the remote. I also did the first part (teaching Homelink the opener code) when I was out of range of the garage. When I came back, the Learn light was blinking orange. I pressed it, and the opener blinker once and then Homelink now works in my Venza.

Thanks for this video. As all the other comments have stated, this is what finally worked for me too. I first tried doing it without the remote control (using the learn button on the garage opener), since I didn’t have access to it at the time (it was in my wife’s car) but it didn’t work. Finally got the remote and it worked the first time.

Putting this here to help others in 2023+. I have a 2010 Land Rover and a 2013 Elantra. I installed a new Chamberlain side mounted garage door opener in 2020 and had to buy the Homelink Repeater to get the vehicle’s Homelink to work with the new garage door opener. It worked great. Then we moved in 2023. I brought my Homelink Repeater with me to the new house and installed a new side mounted garage. I setup my existing Homelink Repeater and no dice. I called Homelink and they said due to a lawsuit by Genie that Chamberlain lost they had to change the algorithm they were using in their new garage door openers in 2022. Any existing Homelink Repeaters do not support this new 2022+ algorithm. Homelink released a new version of their Homelink Repeater in 2022 that supports 2022+ garage door openers from Chamberlain. This new unit has a model number of RPTRMC. The “MC” suffix indicates this new version. I threw out my old version and purchased this new one and it worked perfectly first try. I hope that helps at least one other person from losing their mind. :)

I just used your proceedure to program my daughters Ford Escape Built in remote after we changed the openers to a Liftmaster door Opener. Your two step method worked. I thnk I know why we had to do this twice. Depending on the manufacture, the remotes will operate on different frequencies, commonly around 315 MHZ. The frequency is different on the new opener. I confirmed this using SDR Sharp a computer application that provides a very wide band RF spectrum analyzer. So, when we perform step one, the car built in remote recognizes the new frequency and remembers this as the frequency to transmit on. Now with this set, we now can push the learn button on the actual door opener, and it will communicate properly with car remote. Strange that this is not explained online anywhere that I could find. Thank you for posting this video.

Thank you for the advice of doing "two steps": First was simultaneously holding the Home Link button in the car and the button on the remote until the Home Link indicator light flashed rapidly to show that the Home Link button had been programmed: Second step of pressing the "Learn" button on the garage door opener, then pressing the programmed Home Link button in the car did the trick. My 2001 Chamberlain Garage door opener now "plays nicely" with my new 2022 Lincoln Corsair. - Your "trial and error" method, leading to this solution has been a "god-send" to all of us with older garage door openers.
