Garage door opener on overhead console in front of sunglass case, trying to reset with new garage door openers..HELP PLEASE
1.
For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)
2.
Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface (located on your visor), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
3.
Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button. DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)
Note: Some garage door openers may require you to replace step 3 with the “cycling” procedure noted in the “View Canadian Instructions” section.
4.
Press and hold the trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.
5.
At the garage door opener receiver (motorhead unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the unit). If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the garage door opener’s manual or contact us.
6.
Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button (the name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer). NOTE: Once the button is pressed, there are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step.
7.
Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink button for two seconds and release. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence up to 3 times to complete the training process.
WARNING: A
garage door opening system that cannot stop or reverse itself after detecting an
object in its path does not meet current federal safety standards. To decrease
the risk of serious injury or death, do not use the universal transmitter with a
door opening system that lacks stop and reverse features as required by federal
standards. This includes any garage door opening system manufactured before
April 1, 1982. CAUTION: During
this procedure, the system that you are programming will be made to operate.
Make sure that people or objects are clear of the garage door or gate being
programmed.1,582 views

I have jus purchased a 1996 XJ6, typically missing the owners handbook. I am trying to progam my Homelink using the instructions provided, but I cannot find a transmitter on the visor. There is a little black plastic hemisphere on top of the dash near center of the windshield, so I guessed maybe it was that. I tried it, and the indicator light seemed to think the opener was programmed, but it won't operate the garage door. Am I looking in the right spot?
I tried this procedure when I was first searching, and I was able to get all the correct responses from the indicator light, but it wtill won't operate my garage door. There is nothing on my garage motor unit to suggest that it is a "smart" unit.
The primary issue I seem to be having is actually knowing where the transmitter is located. There doesn't appear to be a transmitter anywhere on the visor, is it located somewhere else? I thought maybe it was the small hemispherical platic nubbin in the center of the dash at the bottom of the windshield. Any clues?
