How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Keep the door path clear while repeatedly testing vehicle transmitters.

  • Train with Skylink remote: Program the car’s system using a working Skylink remote as the source transmitter.
  • Sync to opener: Press the Skylink opener’s LEARN button, then press the programmed button in the car several times until the opener responds.
  • Use compatibility bridge if needed: If your vehicle is older or not directly compatible, install a HomeLink compatibility bridge kit as recommended by Skylink.
