How to Program a Toyota HomelinkV Console Button to Open a Garage Door (Because my Owners Manual was Wrong)

After an hour of nearly pulling my hair out following the Toyota owners manual directions, I finally figured out how to do it correctly.  Here's what you do:

1. Prep work: Locate the Learn button on the garage door motor mounted to the ceiling or support beam.  The Learn button always seem to be near or next to the light bulb if it has one.  Grab the garage door remote and choose which HomelinkV button you would like to configure.

2. Push and hold both the HomelinkV button and the garage door remote button at the same time until the Home icon starts to blink. 

3. Let go of both and quickly push only the HomelinkV again until the lights under the Home icon blink fast.

4. Immediately get out of your vehicle and push the Learn button on the garage door motor.  I believe you have up to 30 seconds so don't kill yourself rushing over to it.  I nearly did but that's because I'm a klutz. Luckily the ground broke my fall.

5. Go back to your vehicle and push the HomelinkV button 2 times slowly and then the overhead motor light should blink twice. 

6. It should work now.  If not, mutter copious amounts of profanity and repeat steps 1 through 5.
