Here are the simple instructions to get your HomeLink to work with your Toyota.

This applies for a Toyota Sienna 2005-2010 this is how I finally figured out how to program my HomeLink revolving code garage door opener.

1. you have to wipe out your old codes. Hold HomeLink 1 & 3 for 20 seconds.

2. you have to set the HomeLink into revolving code mode by "trying to teach it" using your remote for your garage door hold remote 1 inch from the HomeLink unit in your Toyota. Press and hold the HomeLink button you want to program and your remote garage door openner at the same time for 20 seconds. Now pressing the HomeLink button should blink very fast which means its in Revolving Code mode.

3. Only now that the HomeLink is in revolving code mode can you really teach it. You now set your Garage Opener into Learning/Training mode by pressing the button inside your garage door opener. Now you have 30 seconds to get back to your Toyota and Hold the same HomeLink button for two seconds until it goes from fast blinking to solid, then do this once more for 2 seconds and again it will flash fast for the first two seconds then go solid.

4. Your HomeLink in your Toyota should now be programmed correctly to open/close your garage door but you must hold it for the two seconds each time as it goes from fast flashing to a solid color in order to open/close your garage door.

It took me 30 minutes to figure out the trick but now I can program all 3 of my home links in about 1 minute each following the steps above (except for #1 which clears all the old codes initially :)

One thing to add for Canadian users (such as me). In step 2 where you are "trying to teach", the instructions are slightly different for Canadian users. Canadian law limits the signal sent out to a maximum 2 second burst (US has no limitation). So once you are holding the desired HomeLink button down, instead of also holding the garage door opener remote button down, you have to click madly like a maniac sending out burst after burst. Position the garage door opener close enough to the HomeLink receiver in your Sienna so that they are actually touching. Then hold down the desired HomeLink button, and start clicking your garage remote like a madman while moving it around against the HomeLink receiver. The HomeLink light on your Sienna will start to blink quickly when it accepts the signal (should only take about 3-4 seconds). Release both buttons. Then when you push and hold the HomeLink button, you should see it flash very quickly as Charles described. Proceed to step 3. The second push of step 3 when you hold in the HomeLink button for 2 seconds will actually open (or close) your garage door.
