Toyota Venza: Programming HomeLink® (for U.S.A. owners)

To ensure correct programming into the HomeLink®, install a new battery in the hand-held transmitter prior to programming. Failure to install a new battery into the hand-held transmitter will affect both the range and accuracy of the HomeLink® in your vehicle.

The battery side of the hand-held transmitter must be pointed away from the HomeLink® during the programming process.

The HomeLink® compatible transceiver in your vehicle has 3 buttons which can be programmed to operate 3 different devices. Refer to the programming method below appropriate for the device.

1. Indicator
2. Buttons

 - Programming HomeLink®

Point the remote control transmitter for the device 1 to 3 in. (25 to 75 mm) from the HomeLink® buttons.

Keep the HomeLink® indicator light in view while programming.

Press and hold one of the HomeLink® buttons and the transmitter button. When the HomeLink® indicator light changes from a slow to a rapid flash within 20 seconds, you can release both buttons.

Test the HomeLink® operation by pressing the newly programmed button.

If a HomeLink® button has been programmed for a garage door, check to see if the garage door opens and closes. If the garage door does not operate, see if your remote control transmitter is of the rolling code type. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink® button. The remote control transmitter is of the rolling code type if the HomeLink® indicator light flashes rapidly for 2 seconds and then remains lit. If your transmitter is of the rolling code type, proceed to the heading “Programming a rolling code system”.

Repeat the steps above to program
another device for each of the remaining HomeLink® buttons.

 - Programming a rolling code system

If your device is rolling code equipped, follow the steps under the heading “Programming HomeLink®” before proceeding with the steps listed below.

Locate the learn button on the ceiling
mounted garage door opener motor. The exact location and color of the button may vary by brand of garage door opener motor.

Press the learn button.

Following this step, you have 30 seconds in which to initiate step 3 below.

Press and hold the vehicle’s programmed
HomeLink® button for 2 seconds and release it. Repeat this step once again. The garage door may open.
