The Lear Car2U® Home Automation System is compatible with the majority of private gate entry systems. To program your gate you must first determine if you have a fixed or rolling code gate. To learn which kind of gate you have use the transmitter lookup feature located on the left side of this web page.
If you reside in a gated community, please use the Need Help? feature located near the top of the page to be contacted by a representative for further programming information, or contact the Car2U® call center at 866-572-2728.
