I just bought a 2007 Tahoe and I'm having problems programming my universal home remote to open my garage door, I have a genie garage door opener. Has anyone else had this problem??

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt K

If your garage door opener uses the rolling code, then you have to use the learn button on the back of the motor and not the button you can carry with you. Other than that I was able to successfully program my Genie door.

Read the 2nd page in the book. I believe it is steps 7 and 8 that you really need to read close. Get a partner to help you out, it is hard to get out of the car run up the latter and press the learn button and then press the remote and the button in the car within 30 seconds.

I had problems with my Chamberlin programing too. I had to clear the codes in the Tahoe and use my handheld remote to reprogram the tahoe first. I then used the learn button on the back of the opener to finish the programing. There are two sections in the owners manual on this, and you need to use the second section that describes this process. I am not sure how different the Genie is from the Chamberlin but this worked for me after an hour of screwing around.

I had some trouble figuring it out as well. Luckily, my son is an engineering physicist and got it working pretty quickly. He's sometimes handy to have around.
