Default Homelink not working

Yesterday I pulled out of the garage and closed the garage with my Homelink with no issues. Upon my return home, the homelink did not work. It seems like there is no power, as the LED did not light up (or the LED is not working). The only most recent thing I did was replace the LIM gasket, but after putting everything back together, homelink worked fine. I picked up groceries on the way home (as I noticed someone mentions a Splice Pack in the trunk??). I do recall hearing a small "beep" once or twice while driving home, a beep like if you switch from driver 1 to driver 2 on the driver settings.

I think my first step will be to check for power in the homelink module, is the module easy to remove?

Thanks!

Check the fuse first. It'* in the fuse block under the seat.

Along with checking the fuse, did you try the other buttons on it. In case one is gunked up or broken.

I did try the other buttons, no LED light. As for the fuse, I looked in the manual for which fuse it is connected to and did not see anything related to the Homelink, do you know what fuse it may coincide with?

Cool, thanks for the fuse location...

I just returned from a quick look at it and was going to check the power and found the connector was disconnected...not sure how in the hell that would have happened...must have been a large pothole! I feel stupid, but oh well, it is fixed!

Nothing to feel stupid about anything. Sometimes you need someone who'* not close to the problem to see the solution. Glad you got it fixed!
