How to set home link?

668 F10 · 02-24-2024, 11:58 AM

I have seen many videos and articles about how to set the homelink garage door opener to the mirror, but they all mention a light on the mirror which will turn on/off while setting the garage door. My mirror doesn’t have this light (image attached) so I’m unsure about how to set the homelink. I apologize in advance if I’m blatantly missing something but I need some help.

It's a light in the mirror, bottom center. You'll have to hold the outer two buttons for a really long time to enter pairing mode. Then, the rolling-code openers are a bear to do; get on the ladder, get back to the car, get back up on the ladder....

If no light illuminates when you press the HOMELINK buttons…check the fuse to see if it is blown. There should be a fuse chart tucked into a slot in the rear fuse box. Look for the HOMELINK icon to see which fuses power that feature.

In my case the light is inside the glass itself towards the left side. It blinks orange when I press the button.
