Default Re: programming garage door opener ???

it works in tandem with the newer openers and has its own remote to allow you to “train” your car.
you plug it into a power outlet, sync the remote for the repeater with your opener and then take that remote to the car and sync it

its an extra 2 steps and an additional $25 for the part. It’s been plugged in for the fast 4 years and has worked fine
Hi, thanks.

That is the problem so often, old information isn't updated when doing a search. Which of course, I wouldn't expect users forums to be updated.

But, you would think Homelink would have something about this in their instructions!

I have the repeater in hand and will be attempting the setup.
