Chevy Truck Garage Door Opener Troubleshooting

After attempting the steps to set your Chevy garage door opener, if the Homelink indicator light is quickly flashing, you have a rolling code system stored in the memory of your garage door opener and the remote device. With these simple additional steps, you can program your Chevy truck garage door opener: 

  1. Leave the car and find the garage door opener motor inside your garage. 
  2. Search for the “Smart” or “Learn” button, generally beside the antenna wire hanging on the back of the motor. 
  3. Push the “Smart” or “Learn” button once, and you’ll have a 30-second window to finish the next step. 
  4. Return to the vehicle and press your programmed Homelink control button three times. This will finish the activation process. 
  5. For the two Homelink buttons remaining, repeat the previous four steps. This should activate your garage door. 
  6. The original remote control transmitter and the Homelink wireless control system, once programmed, can be used with your Chevy garage door opener.
