Inside your Chevy Silverado, locate the HomeLink® buttons, typically found on the rearview mirror or overhead console. These buttons are usually labeled with the HomeLink® logo or the words “HomeLink® System.”

2. While holding the HomeLink® button, press and hold the button on your garage door remote control.
3. Continue holding both buttons until the indicator light on the HomeLink® button stops flashing and remains solid.

5. Test the Programmed Button:

Once you’ve programmed the HomeLink® button, test it by pressing the button. If the garage door opens or closes as expected, the programming was successful.

If you have multiple garage doors or gates, you can program additional HomeLink® buttons by repeating the programming process for each button.
