Just purchased a 2003 jaguar xj8, but cant figure out how to program the integrated 4-channel garage door/entry gate opener to open my garage door? can you help?
Homelink Garage Door Opener Programming Procedure:
The procedure described below was successfully applied to a 2005 Jaguar S-Type.
To begin with, several attempts were made using the programming instructions contained in my Jaguarās ownerās manual. Though the procedure described in the ownerās manual was straight-forward and understandable, I was unsuccessful in getting the vehicleās remote to make my garage door opener function. The particular garage door openers I have are both made by Genie. Both openers utilize the āRolling Codeā feature.
To begin with, be sure to clear previous codes on your Jaguarās garage door opener by first turning (rotating) the ignition key to the āIā position (first notch). Next, simultaneously hold button 1 (left most button) and button 3 (right most button) down until the middle buttonās red light changes from continuous on to a rapid flash. This process takes approximately 20-25 seconds. What follows is a two part process. In the first part, get your Genie portable remote and hold it near (approximately 3 inches away from) your Jaguarās garage door opener console buttons. Choose which button on your Jaguarās remote you wish to dedicate to your Genie door opener and simultaneously press and hold your Genie opener button and your Jaguarās opener button. The red light on your Jaguarās center button (button #2) will light up and within 1-2 seconds will begin to flash rapidly. You have just completed part 1 of the two part process.
Part two: Now it is time to utilize the āLearnā function on your Genie garage door opener. Press the āLearnā button on your Genie garage door opener. The red LED adjacent to the āLearnā button will begin to flash. You now have 30 seconds in which to program your Jaguarās opener button. Using the same button you just used in the āpart 1ā procedure, press and hold the same button for several seconds. As before, your Jaguarās red light in the middle button will light up and within 1-2 seconds, it will flash rapidly. Release the button you are programming. Now, here is the key piece of information! Once again, press and hold that same button. Once again, the center buttonās red light will flash rapidly. Release your newly programmed button. This procedure proved successful in my application. Here is what has just happened. The first time you pressed your Jaguarās remote button tells the Genie opener that it exists and that it is a viable candidate for making your life easier (opening the damn door). The second time you press your Jaguarās remote button confirms to the Genieās rolling code that your Jaguarās signal is legitimate and is to be trusted from then on.
