FORD 2006 Explorer v.1 - Manual (Page 66)

Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLink
௡ equipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelink
௡ buttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programming in this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLink
௡ with the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note: Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
second (or “ACC”) position for programming and/or operation of the
HomeLink
௡. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the
hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
௡ for
quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outside
buttons releasing only when the
indicator light begins to flash after
20 seconds. Do not repeat Step 1
to program additional hand-held
transmitters to the remaining two
HomeLink
௡ buttons. This will erase
previously programmed hand-held
transmitter signals into HomeLink
௡.
2. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches
(2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink
௡ button you wish to program
(located on your overhead console) while keeping the indicator light in
view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLink
௡ and hand-held
transmitter button. Do not release
the buttons until Step 4 has
been completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
Step 3 with procedures noted in the
“Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming” section for Canadian
residents.
