HOME LINK QUESTION
This isn't an Explorer question but I hope someone might give me some guidance.
We just traded our 15 Explorer XLT in for an 18 Edge Titanium. The Edge has homelink built in garage door opener and I cant seem to get it to program to my Genie Intellicode opener. I have followed the instructions in the manual and it doesn't work. Anyone have any tips or tricks i can try?
Thanks in advance

Opener is 2-5 years old I don't remember exactly with out getting on a ladder.
No the Explorer did not have it, but i was hoping someone with a higher end Explorer might have had some experience.
I have printed some instructions from Genies website and I will give them a whirl this weekend
Thanks

On my garage door opener, I've always had to remove the back cover of garage door opener. I have a red button I press on the opener. From that point you have 30 sec to go to car and hold down the HomeLink button you wish to use. Watch the led on the HomeLink and it will blink differently when programmed. They mention a few different ways in the owners manual.

Well as an update. We have been batting a 1000 here, I have tried the instructions from Genies web site, i have tried all the the instructions out of the manual with no luck. So we are using the oem remote. Thanks for the input i will keep messing with it as time allows and if i get it working i will update this thread.

Found these instructions on another site that worked for my 2018 F250 with the Universal Garage Door Opener and a 2002 Chamberlain unit.
This process is much easier to accomplish with two people. However, I will give directions taking into account the movements in and out of the garage that must be undertaken by a single person.

- Test your remote. Make sure it’s programmed and operates the door.
- Make sure the button in your car is cleared/reset if required.
- Set-up a ladder, if required; for easy access to the learn button on your garage door opener.
- Locate the learn button. Refer to our article on programming garage door remotes for more info.
- Pull your car into the driveway, directly in front of the garage door.
- Close the garage door.
- Press button on remote and hold (if door doesn’t go up, press the button again and hold). Do NOT let go of the remote button, keep it depressed through steps 8, 9 & 10.
- Hold the remote next to your car’s transmitter (the location you previously found in your owner’s manual).
- Depress the button on your vehicle’s visor or mirror that’s to operate the door. Remember, you’re still holding the remote button too.
- Watch the indicator light. In most vehicles, when the light either blinks rapidly or turns off, the vehicle has matched the remote’s frequency. This may take up to 45 seconds. You can now let go of both buttons.
- Go inside your garage, up the ladder, and press your opener’s learn button (release immediately). You now have approximately 30 seconds to get back to your car and perform step 12.
- Press the button, on your visor or mirror, that you want to have open the door. Unlike regular door remotes you may have to depress the button for a second or more before the opener reads the signal.
- On Chamberlain, Liftmaster, Raynor and Sears models you will see the opener light flash. On Genie models, press the button in your car one more time.
- Press the button in your vehicle once again. If you were successful in your programming the door will close
- If you got to step 14 and the transmitter in your vehicle is still not working; I encourage you to go back to your vehicle owner’s manual and begin again. Multiple attempts at this process will be required in most cases. Don’t get discouraged.
