In retrospect, the two-step process I went through for my Homelink, in the above post, is very much like the optional step shown in the manual for a rolling code system. I guess what was different is that I didn't get the same blinking light indication from the Homelink when I first tried to use it, that the manual says to expect if you need to do the optional rolling code steps. But I needed to do the extra steps anyway. Sorry if I caused confusion with my description.

I set my Homelink about two months ago. After failing a couple of times, I did it like you did it. It worked but it was a little tricky for me, too. The part where you hold your remote up to your 3-Homelink buttons and press button #1 (or whichever) was the tricky part. It was like you had to hold the remote JUST RIGHT - at a certain angle to the 3-Homelink buttons. It took a few trys and I finally got the quick blinking lights. I also then had to "reset" my garage door opener by pressing a button on the backside and then pressing the set Homelink button (a/k/a button #1).

Thks - I have the Volvo manual and I understand the HomeLink instructions. I too have a Sears craftmaster opener. It's that manual that I'm missing. I'm wondering what button you pressed on the Sears piece. There are a couple on the motor - one red, maybe two blue if I remember correctly.

johnh7,
 
Sorry - I misread your earlier e-mail. My Sears garage door opener sounds different than yours. Mine has a single green button (square shape) on the back of the unit. The instructions for the opener are actually printed on a small label next to the green button.

I have a Sears garage door opener, and I used the "rolling code" procedure in the Volvo manual, and it works fine. It was an effort to do it by myself, but I did it.
