Home link button died...
When I replace the visor, will I need to recode the buttons or does the button information store in one of the billion computers in the car?

Well fudge. Ok, get the new visor and code the buttons, sigh.

I'd just as soon replace the darn thing if a button failed. I believe I have a 3 year warranty on this stuff.

Flashing where? Sometimes my garage door doesn't open on the first push of the HomeLink button, but the light in the door opener drive unit will flash. When that happens, it just means the transmitter and receiver are out of sync (rolling code), but the next push of the HomeLink button makes the door open.

Mine broke also, button got stuck. They had to replace the visor. I think it was a $250 part
. It was covered under warranty . New one acts like it will get stuck also. Nothing new to program

Car goes to the dealer on Monday. I'll probably have to make a 2nd trip if they don't have one in stock.
