How do I program my in-car transmitter to an Genie Intellicode or
Chamberlain Security Plus system?
Homelink in-car programming instructions:
To program a built-in-car transmitter to a rolling code garage door opener
(Genie rolling code is called Intellicode, Liftmaster/Sears is called Security
plus), you should take the following steps.
Clear out anything previously programmed into the in-car system from the
factory by holding down on the 2-outside buttons simultaneously, until the
in-car red light starts flashing rapidly. This may take up to a
minute. (In a few cases, some make cars require the keys to be in the
ignition, or the car motor must be running, or the car door must be shut)
Decide which button you want to make to be your in-car garage door
transmitter. Hold your transmitter up near the selected button, pressing
both the garage door remote and the selected in-car transmitter button
simultaneously. Hold down on the buttons until the in-car, red light
flashes rapidly. this sets the in-car transmitter to be your garage door
openers make transmitter, but you are not done. You now need to make this
in-car transmitter your personal transmitter.
Go to the Learn Button on your garage door opener. The button is
usually right next to the area the floppy antenna is connected to the motor
head. With Genie it is most often behind the light lens, and flashes red
when pressed. With Sears or Liftmaster (Chamberlain) it is near, or part
of, the terminal screw board. Press this learn button momentarily. A
red light should start to flash or an amber light should turn on and
stay lit. Go back to the in-car transmitter button you programmed and
press this button 3 or 4 times, or until the door starts moving. This
should set your in-car transmitter to your garage door opener.
How do I program my Intellicode or Security Plus
Transmitter?
The code changes every single time you press the button. It is a
rolling code transmitter and there are 4.5 billion combinations, so it is never
on the same frequency twice! If you've lost a transmitter you can delete
out all of the transmitters programmed into you garage door opener by
holdingdown on the learn button, or smart button until the light
stops blinking. The learn, or smart button is behind the light lens
or on the back of the motor head and is close to the floppy antenna wire.
Some models require you to unscrew 2 bolts on the light lens to be able to
remove the lens and access the learn button. The smart button for
Chamberlain openers is usually on the terminal board.
To reprogram each transmitter, push the learn button momentarily and the red
or amber light will start blinking. It will blink for up to 30
seconds. In that time press one of your transmitters 3 or 4 times
until the garage door starts moving. Keep the transmitter at least 2 feet
away from the antenna.Perform the same process with each transmitter.
If you are in need of an Intellicode transmitter (GIT-1), you can find them
on our Web site in the Genie section. If you need a Chamberlain
(Liftmaster/Sears) Security Plus transmitter, go to the garage door transmitter
section of our Chamberlain store. Stanley and Linear have similar, rolling
code transmitters. To access our transmitters go to Transmitters
and Receivers and click onto the appropriate manufacturer.
