Exclamation Program Integrated Garage Door Buttons

Just bought my 2009 GL450 and can't program the integrated buttons.

I have the smart key and can't find out how to place the ignition in position 1. I can only start the engine for power but cannot get the rapid blinking to indicate learn mode is activated??

You can pull the "Start Button" right out by grabbing the outer edge of it. Once you have it off, you will be able to see where the head of the key inserts. Just turn it to the first click and you are in position 1.

Or you could just push the start button once (key fob in car, foot off the brake) - that has the same effect on my E550 and SL55.

Be sure to clear the old codes by holding down the outside 2 buttons at the same time.
