HomeLink DIY install

[nate704]

I am so confused, I thought everyone said that model is compatible with 2023 model Y. But it's not working on my car.

Do you trust the used items that was sold on eBay 100% working condition? Those units are all come from wrecked cars.

Well, if it not working, system wouldn't let me unlocked it and add to the car. It's show under Additional Vehicle Info, Garage Door Opener: Homelink 5 (Opt2)

Did you reset the car during installation / activation? I had to do it multiple times to get the HL module to work on my 2023 MYLR. Mine was built on Austin in December 2022

 

[irobot2090]

Yes, I did multiple times. Weird thing is my right headlight is ON when the module is plugged in. Left side is fine.

I just bought a used one from eBay same model (1114984-00-B) for my 2023 Model Y LR picked up on December 2022. Installed seems fine and I'm able to added it on my car, however I noticed the right headlight is ON when the Homelink module is plugged in. Left headlight is off and whatever I try to do it's still not On. So I unplug the module and both headlights are ok. I try to setup the homelink but somehow I can't get pass the screen where you holding down the remote and link to the car. I'm on the latest software version 2023.12.5. I'm not sure what's going on, i checked the Service Alerts and got these:

VCFront_a096_OCS1P_MIA
VCRight_a238_lumbarValveMIA
EPBR_a096_OCS1P_MIA

Does anyone know what's happened?

Try reinstalling software? I can't explain why it's causing the issue with right headlight and the errors, but my understanding is that reinstalling software causes modules to be interrogated and their local software updated as well. It's worth a try.

Are those units being sold on eBay genuine/OE? Wondering as it's slightly cheaper and the seller has MANY units on hand.

 

[irobot2090]

Yes, It’s OEM. Oct 2018 model.

Have you tried redeploying the software to the car through the service menu after the homelink module is installed?

 

[irobot2090]

Uninstalled the software on the car?

"Reinstall", not "uninstall". Go to Service mode and select "Software Reinstall".

My question is does this model (1114984_00_B) is compatible with 2023 Model Y LR that picked up in Dec 2022?

From what I have been researched, that is the correct part. Maybe it's defective?

Firmware for newly connected components are installed after a firmware re-install. It will ignore it until you either do that or wait for a new firmware update.

 

[irobot2090]

So do you recommend, remove the HL module, reinstall the software and plug in the HL module back in?

 

[irobot2090]

Well, tried everything still not working. I think module is toasted.

After you install the module. Re-install the firmware to trigger the modules firmware update. Then check again. If it doesn't recognize it, restart with the steering niples

I was able to get the parts from my local service center and they did not have the bracket so I had to wait for a couple days. The service center told me that they can sell the parts but they won't do anything if the parts don't work. I installed and added it in about 25 minutes. I had to move the Wyze Camera away from the wire hanging from the garage door opener to get better range for the homelink to work further away from my garage. It works well after all. I have options of auto folding, auto open when getting home and auto close garage door leaving my house. 230.06 before tax and I got 2 screws.

Have you done the "HomeLink Retrofit" before the Test? The retrofit button is supposed to enable the module.
You shouldn't need a software reinstall....

 

[irobot2090]

Yeah, I did that and car recognized but won’t let me do the setup. Have me bunch of errors.

I've considered doing this to my newly acquired Model 3... went on ebay to look at homelink module prices and just laughed. Some of these crackheads want $400 for a used module (and multiple posts for $350+). The cheapest is $150 though, not sure I'm ready for this potential headache, but I got so used to Homelink in my MY that I feel like an animal pressing a button on the remote.

My car is still new so I'm still debating what to do.
