It can be done. When I got my Alty, I was smelling gas real strong, and it turned out the gas tank had a fracture and had to be replaced. So for the few days I was waiting, they gave me a new off the lot 01 Altima to drive and it had the homelink on it. You have to follow the directions exactly, but I got it to work....and I bought my house new on 5/00. Its possible it may not work on every single opener out there, but I know mine is pretty new and has the revolving security feature. I'll check and see what brand my opener is when I get home.c5hardtop said:I tried it on my last 00 Max and it never worked... and I'm positive I was following instructions. I have a newer door opener (late 1998) and think the secuity features on it will not allow you do it.
I only tried mine a couple of times, but I was sure I was doing it correctly. A dealer rep came to my house to try it and they couldn't get it. The dealer tried programing a different Maxima to my garage (to make sure the homelink was not defective) and it didn't work.kvou812 said:

Damn, sorry to hear that. Well, there isn't any guarantee that it'll work on all openers...kinda like a universal remote for your TV I guess. I checked my garage opener and its a Lift-Master professional line....a brand that I have seen in Home Depot, and one thats seems to be popular with builders around here as I have seen it in a lot of new houses when I was looking, but oh well, the thing isn't that critical anyway.c5hardtop said:
