The steps to program a Honda garage door opener depends on whether you have a rolling or fixed code garage door. We’ll walk you through how to figure out which you have in a little while.
Regardless of whether you have a rolling or fixed code door, the first few steps are the same:
  • Hold your garage door remote within 6-inches of your Honda’s HomeLink buttons
  • Press and hold both the HomeLink button you want to program and the “open” button on your garage door remote
  • Continue holding both buttons until the HomeLink button flashes
  • At this point, your HomeLink button will either turn solid or start flashing rapidly—this will determine whether you have a rolling code or fixed code garage door.
If your HomeLink light stays solid, it means you have a fixed code garage door, in which case you’ll need to:
  • Press the HomeLink button you are attempting to program twice
  • If the garage door opens or closes at this point, you have successfully programmed your Honda garage door opener
If your HomeLink light starts flashing rapidly, it means you have a rolling code garage door, in which case you’ll need to:
  • Press the HomeLink button you art attempting to program twice
  • Exit your vehicle and press your garage door motor’s “Learn/Smart” button once
  • Return to your vehicle within 30 seconds and press down on the HomeLink button you are attempting to program three times
  • If at this point the garage door opens or closes, you have successfully programmed your Honda garage door opener
