Homelink

[Mateo83]

Also, the Homelink icon is always available in the Tesla mobile app under the Controls section.

Its frustrating the app reverts to the last selection in the car. I have a gate and garage door programmed.

Anybody run into issues with setup? I’m trying to set mine up but it doesn’t move past the getting ready to program screen. Any help would be appreciated. I called Tesla and Homelink. So far, nothing.

Not that issue, but i did have to do the programming about 3 times each for them to actually work on the screen.

The myQ is great. Use a raspberry pi with homebridge to control it.

Or just install homebridge on a docker container on your synology NAS if you have one.

Doesn't a Tesla technician need to code for getting past that step? I remember my TT telling me a lot of people try to do it themselves and he laughs...

You would think, because it adds the homelink icon to the screen and in the app.

I just did this and it’s freaking great! I also have it set up to open the garage door automatically when I pull up.

Can the home link be set up to multiple gate/door. For example I have a community gate and my garage door that I want to set up. Don't want to purchase if it can not do both.

You can program three devices… Automatic Garage Opener - HomeLink

Auto open is great since it'll open both the community gate and garage once you come within a programmed distance. However, it does open the community gate on the way out too. Haven't figured out a way to prevent that other than manually skipping it on the screen.

In the spirit of safety and neighborlyness probably best to leave the community gate to manual operation. The button will appear on screen easily enough when you’re within range and then you don’t have to remember to manually skip it on the way out.

Yes, i have a gate and garage.

How does the app know which garage door to activate? I have 2 and I don’t see any way to select a particular door.

I believe its the last one you activated on your screen. Otherwise, wish the app could select one or the other.

Mine works on the community gate, and I set it to auto-activate when entering but not to do anything when leaving. Works great for me.
