If it doesn't call 800 355-3515 and then press 4 for a tech. If the door does not activate, repeat this step 1 or 2 more times till it does. Within 30 seconds go to the Prius mirror and hold button 2 in for 2 seconds and release.
Now go to the garage door opener head for the other stall and press but do not hold in it's learn button.ĩ. If the door does not activate, repeat this step 1 or 2 more times till it does.Ĩ. Within 30 seconds go to the Prius mirror and hold button 1 in for 2 seconds and release. (Holding it in will clear all the codes causing other problems).ħ. Now go to the garage door opener head for the Prius stall and press but do not hold in the learn button. The garage door in front of the other stall will activate.Ħ. Using the garage door opener remote for the other stall, press mirror button #2 and the big button on the remote for the other stall together until the red mirror lite starts to blink quickly. The garage door in front of you will activate.ĥ. Using the garage door opener remote for the Prius stall, press mirror button #1 and the big button on the remote together until the red mirror lite starts to blink quickly. In the Prius, hold buttons 1 and 3 for 20 seconds till the red light starts to blink fast. So here are the programming steps for two garage door openers.ģ. Two separate remotes have codes that are numerically very different from each other so the doors do not interpret the codes the Prius as the same if the Prius mirror buttons are programmed by separate remotes. It seems that there is a significant digit issue and if the codes are close together as they are on the same remote one button can open both doors. Well, after speaking with Tracy at Homelink I was told not to use two buttons on the same remote, but to use the large buttons on both remotes. I have Raynor Pilot units with rolling codes and after programming both doors would open when I pressed the first button. I just got off the phone with Homelink and my programming problems are now solved. Toyota engineers that design the actual cars are amazing but the ones that put together the options have the brains of a spice rack. In retrospect, I should have bought a Prius II, added my own top of the line nav/sat/stereo and saved 10K. I'm disgusted with the disregard that Toyota has for its customers whe it comes to things like this. Toyota makes a FORTUNE on options and they should at least work. But those of us who spend 5K on a V and another 5K on the ATP shouldn't have to put up with dumb USB searching, navigation systems that put our homes in the middle of fields and now Homelink systems that open both garage doors.
I agree that the Prius is one of the most reliable and the most efficient cars around as far as gas mileage is concerned. At least I can get in and out of the garage without getting soaked in the rain. I'm tempted to go off on a rant about this but what's the point.
I also have a 2006 Sienna XLE that works flawlessly and has never needed reprogramming. Pressed the 2 outer buttons for reset, then redid the programming per the steps above all worked well for a few days and now both doors are opening together again. Then all of a sudden both garage doors started to open together. The only explanation I could see for this was that there was something blocking the "learn" signal between the Prius and the opener when the car was outside of the garage.Ĭlick to expand.I had mine working perfectly using the above method. I had to leave the drivers door open and stand on the door still in order to reach the "learn" button on the opener, but when I went to do the last step, it worked right away. I pulled the Prius into the garage and repeated the instructions. I tried following the instructions several times, and it seemed to be working, but then when I got to the last step of pushing the desired homelink button for 2 seconds up to 3 times, the opener would never respond. I had my Prius parked so that instead of the front of the car facing the open garage door (as if I was going to pull into the garage in drive) the drivers door was facing the open garage door (I did this because I live in an appartment and didn't want to block the road entirely). This one took a long time for me to figure out, especially since the instructions belabor the fact that cars emit CO2 and the programing should be performed with the car oustide of the garage. In order to get the homelink to read the signal from the opener after the "learn" button was pressed, the car had to be inside of my garage. After reading the info at it was clear to me that you actually have to do both.Ģ. Click to expand.The first time I tried programing homelink I used the manual and read it to imply that if you have a non-rolling codes opener, use the first section of instructions and if you have a rolling codes opener, use the second section of instructions.
