HOW TO: Add Homelink garage remote from Lux Package

[Nickyweg]

For this to be a plug and play installation, your Bronco needs to be equipped with the lighted mirror.



Visor Assembly W/Garage Opener - part number : M2DZ-7804105-CA

What was the cost of the part?

Here are the install instructions from the FSM (thanks @D2dhanover)

I used a trim tool to pop the cover off. The bolt is 7mm





For informational purposes, here is how the visor is wired (thanks @D2dhanover)

Edit to add remote programming instructions:


From HomeLinks website:
Programming Instructions

For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)

1. Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface (usually located on your visor, overhead console, or mirror), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button. DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)
3. Press and hold the trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.
   • If the indicator light is solid/continuous, training is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released.
   • If the indicator light blinks rapidly for 2 seconds and then turns a solid/continuous light, proceed with the following training instructions for a rolling code device. A second person may make the following steps quicker and easier. Please use a ladder or other device. Do not stand on your vehicle to perform the next steps.
4. At the receiver (motor head unit), locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the unit). If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the device owner’s manual.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button (the name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer). NOTE: Once the button is pressed, there are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink button for two seconds and release. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence up to 3 times to complete the training process.

Retain the original hand-held transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles, as well as for future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. To erase the programmed buttons, perform the procedure shown in step number 1.



This took maybe 15 mins to install and program.

Couple hundred bucks.

So if I’m wanting to do this on a Bronco I’m picking up, is it just plug and play with the existing visor wiring ?

If the bronco has lighted mirrors, yes. In that case, it’ll be PNP

I ordered a 2025 BL,with the base package. I didn't realize it didn't come with this. I just priced out the part at Tasca...its almost $400 now.

Which is why I’ll continue to use the garage door remote that comes with the opener.

Look on LQKonline. They do have some bronco stuff. They are a salvage company. But I have not look specifically for home link visors. I got the home link visor for my F250 for 60 bucks. It works just like it should.​

Old thread revival, but LKQ and other pickers have these available. I decided to give it a go for a $40 visor. Check car-part.com, as well. May want to confirm shipping prior to purchase, though, some of these places can charge quite a bit for shipping.

Word of warning, I did snap the trim cover that covers the bolt when i popped it off. My junkyard part came with a similar crack in the cover, but otherwise functions perfectly.
