Subaru Garage Door Opener: Effortless Home Entry

Learn how to program your Subaru garage door opener with ease in this comprehensive how-to guide.

HomeLink® Programming Instructions

Let’s unravel the mystery of getting your Subaru’s HomeLink system to play nicely with your garage door. It’s not as daunting as it sounds—promise!

First, clear out any old codes in your HomeLink system. Think of it as letting go of bad habits before learning new ones. Simply hold the two outer buttons until the indicator light changes from a solid glow to a slow blinky, usually under 20 seconds.

Next, it’s time to introduce the HomeLink to your garage door opener. Press and hold the button you want to train and your garage remote button—together like you’re shaking hands. Wait for the HomeLink light to change from a slow blink to a rapid flash. Mission (half) accomplished!

Now, if your garage door opener has a rolling code feature—because everything rolls these days—you’ll need an extra step. Climb up to press the “learn” button on your garage door unit. Within 30 seconds, hustle back to your Subaru and press the desired HomeLink button thrice (not too fast, or your car might get dizzy).

And there you go. You’ve just set up your HomeLink. Your garage now obeys your Subaru like a loyal sidekick. Feel the power!

How to Set Up Subaru HomeLink

First, have your garage door remote handy. It’s the magic wand you’ll need.

Turn on your Subaru’s ignition. We want to ensure there is some life in the system.

Press and release the two outer HomeLink buttons. This clears the slate, and we wouldn’t want to accidentally open your neighbor’s garage!

Hold the garage door remote close to the Subaru mirror. About an inch apart. They need their space, but not too much.

Press and hold both the remote button and the selected HomeLink button. Wait for the HomeLink indicator light to switch from slow to rapid blinking. This is the equivalent of your garage door remote saying, “Alright, alright, we’re synced!”

Test your wizardry. Press the HomeLink button and watch the garage door dance to its tune. If it doesn’t work, don’t fret. Just repeat the last step.

Remember, a little patience and the right touch can have you opening that garage while still grooving to your favorite tune.

Subaru HomeLink Garage Door Pairing: Step By Step

First things first, grab your Subaru owner’s manual, it’s not just for propping up wobbly tables! You’ll want to have it nearby, just in case.

Next up, make sure your vehicle is parked outside. Nobody wants to test their love for Subarus by accidentally redecorating the inside of the garage with their bumper.

Start by locating the HomeLink buttons in your Subaru. They usually hang out near your rearview mirror like tiny, high-tech gargoyles.

Press and hold the first and third HomeLink buttons simultaneously until the subtle indicator light starts flashing. This resets the system.

Now, take your garage door remote (preferably the one that actually opens the garage) and hold it close to the chosen HomeLink button. Press and hold your remote’s button while simultaneously pressing the chosen HomeLink button. Release both buttons when the HomeLink indicator flashes rapidly.

Finally, test your work. Hit that HomeLink button again! If your garage door graciously opens (or closes), congratulations, you’re a magician. If not, repeat the previous steps, maybe it was just playing hard to get.

技术无法阻挡。不可能的家伙已经变成了可能。 Wait, did you get that? Sorry, pocket keyboard typo. Carry on!

New Subaru Vehicles With HomeLink

If you’re on the hunt for a new Subaru and fancy some garage-opening magic, you’re in luck. Subaru has been rolling out vehicles equipped with the HomeLink system, turning your car into a multi-tasking wizard.

Here’s what you get with these Subaru models:

First, it’s like having a universal remote for your garage door. No more dangling remotes.

Second, besides the garage opener, HomeLink can operate security gates, home lighting, and even that funky fish tank you never knew needed controlling from your car.

Third, newer Subaru models bring the HomeLink embedded in the mirror. Look up and voila – instant control center.

Lastly, for those feeling futuristic, an added bonus is the Subaru STARLINK infotainment system. Imagine the HomeLink and some glitzy infotainment combining powers. Feels like the Jetsons, doesn’t it?

So next time you’re in the market, remember, your future Subaru might just be the key to unlocking, well, just about everything.

Subaru Owners: Start Here

You’ll first need to check whether your Subaru comes with HomeLink or a similar built-in system. If it does, you’re already halfway to seamless garage access!

Grab your garage door remote. This little buddy is essential for programming, like having a cheat code in a video game.

Familiarize yourself with the buttons on your Subaru’s mirror or console. You’ll be using these to sync with your garage door opener. It’s about as complex as trying to choose a playlist while driving, but less dangerous.

Some patience is required. Your Subaru and garage door opener need to establish a connection, akin to meeting someone new at a party—sometimes a little awkward, but worth it.

Have the owner’s manual within arm’s reach. It’s like having a treasure map, but for your garage and sanity.
