garage door opener
I finally fixed the garage door opener and now I'm trying to program the buttons in the car.
I can get the red light to flash, but it doesn't seem to get programmed - I'm following the owners manual but no luck so far. Anybody else have problems with this? Any clues where I'm going wrong? TIA

Re: garage door opener
what year do you have. The early models don't have the ability to learn code hopping remotes.

Re: garage door opener
In that case I doubt that there is a compatability problem. Are you following the instructions in the owners manual?
Sorry I can't help you more. |

Re: garage door opener
I don't know how that could work unless the RS is a very low quality unit or something's wrong with it. Some of the cheaper RS units have a very sloppy processor and will accept just about anything to get it to start.
Also, with my remote starters, I CAN shut off the code hopping feature. In addition, there are some garage door openers that ARE code hoppers. |

Re: garage door opener
I finally figured it out - the procedures in Canada are different to how you do it in the US - FCC rules I guess. Canadians have a separate paragraph in the manual for the extra instructions and I missed it first time round. Works great now.

I had the same problem until I followed the instruction in the manual for Canada. Wierd but it worked.
