Homelink Question?

[chris@penskeaudi]

what does it mean when you are trying to set the homelink up and after the lights flash three time to say it programed. then i get itside and it the button and the light starts flashing really fast and it doesnt work. and when you go to reprogram it when you push the button down the light flashes really fast then goes soild where it stays lit up for so long as you holding the button then it finally flashes slow to reprogram it but still wont work. what do i do

How do you know it didnt work in the first place? I thought I had mine programmed wrong then I found out you need the key in the ignition to make it work. Plus, you need to hold it down for a couple seconds, then my garage door opened. You cant just quickly press it and expect it to work.

i know you need the key in the ignition, i have programed it before on channel 2 but i put my gate on channel 3 and another grauge on channel 1 but for some reason it dosent work on channel 1

What type of device are you trying to program into Channel one? A garage door opener? Has it worked before? I have a garage door opener that changes its frequency automatically, I forget what it is called exactly. I had to teach the garage door opener to accept the signal from the homelink by pressing a button on the garage door opener and then pressing the homelink button, once it is programmed. Now it works.

it's the second time it stops working.
I have taken it 2 times to the dealer and they can't fix it.
