I have been able to program my garage door to open but not the automatic security gates (there are two) coming into our community. Has anyone programmed either the left or right button to operate their security gate?

If those gates use a Skylink brand receiver it probably isn't going to work.  I have a Skylink replacement receiver on my garage door and no way will the Homelink controller in the car learn from the Skylink transmitter.  Two emails to Homelink support have been ignored so it's obvious (to me) that they don't have a solution.

Yeah, I gave up trying to program our security gates and the button on the visor for the garage door works poorly so I will probably go back to the visor clip on buttons I used in the past.

I think this is one of the features where YMMV... I have been able to program my Homelink to open the security gate in my community on all the cars I have had that included it (I had a 2009 Yukon Hybrid that had the Lear Car2U universal remote and it never worked). The brand of the system in my community is Door King if I remember correctly. I followed the procedure in the manual to program it, but I think I had to press the button in the remote at least a couple of times while holding the Homelink button down to get it to program.

 

Hope this helps!
