Hi Fred, I know this is an older post, but just as pertinent for my 2022 DCT Tour. Took me a little longer than you, but that's probably because I putz around cleaning a lot of things you don't usually see whenever everything's together. And you can add another 10 minutes or so just just for the cursing I did when it came to squeezing that rubber grommet though the hole. Nonetheless, great video. It saved me a lot of time and money... that's more than worth a few minutes of cursing out the grommet.
Fred's instructions were so good. I watched the video a couple of times while I was waiting for my Homelink kit to arrive. I thought the front would have been the hard part but I completed it in 20 minutes. I mounted the Homelink in the saddle bag and then tried to pull the cable. I could not get the cable into the saddle bag so I taped a thin ribbon on the back side of the plug and fed the ribbon into the saddle bag. When I pulled on the ribbon the plug turned in through the hole in the bag. Once I had the rubber plug to the hole I took a long screw driver and massaged it from the back side and it popped in. Even with the trouble I had getting the wire in the bag it only took 90 minutes to complete and program. This is on a 2024 DCT Touring that I got last weekend Thank you Fred
Fred, you are incredibly talented. I just installed the homelink on my 2024 GW DCT. It took me about 2 hours. And best of all it works. Saved myself over 900.00 that the dealer wanted.
This video was super helpful. I was able to complete the installation in a little over an hour without unscrewing the antenna on my 2022 DCT bagger. The hardest part was fishing the wiring harness through the hole. A tip: pre-bend the plug on the harness 90 degrees and shine a light through the hole in the saddle bag. Then feed the harness down to the hole. It will feed straight into the hole.
Just installed my homelink garage door opener on my 2018 GW. I really appreciate your video because you were so right. They were wanting me to disassemble the whole motorcycle to do this job. So very grateful. Thanks again for this awesome video.
Your TH-cam and instructions were VERY helpful. The extra detail regarding how things come apart and go back together were spot on. I never could have taken this project on without your instructions. Many thanks!!!!
Wow, great video! How many dealers use that same method, but still charge the labor suggested in the Honda authorized installation. Thanks for this video.
These instructions are a gold mine! Simple, to the point, and delivers what he promises. Fred saved me several hours not to mention countless risks associated with taking so many other components off the bike. Awesome!
Thanks for the great video Fred. It took about an hour total to install on our 2018 Honda Goldwing DCT Tour CSC Encore Trike. If installing on a trike, you mount the module under the seat where you have some room. Use double sided tape to hold the module in place.
Again. You make the best instructional videos I've seen for the 2018+ goldwing. I own a 2022 tour model, and other than replacing the windshield with a Puig, I'm just now considering upgrades. I'm sure these videos will save me a great deal of time. Cheers 🇨🇦
@Bags2723 I had installed a Puig windshield as well and came back recently from a trip to (almost) the east coast & back to the midwest. I like the extra width and all, but I wish it wasn't quite so tall, the lowest position can't be use as it distorts the view at my sitting height as you're looking thru the very top of it back and forth over and thru the shield. I may just look into a stock height but wider width shield if it gets too annoying, haha!
Fantastic!!! Was not sure if I wanted to take on this job but the vid here shows how easy it is to do and I definitely want home link. Thanks so much for the video!
This was the best instructional video I have ever seen. First, Fred provided a faster and efficient way to install the homelink to the GW. Second, he was very detailed with the process making it easy to follow. I saved 6+ hours in doing this. Thank you so much Fred. You rock!!!
Glad it helped you! Fred is amazing when it comes to this stuff. Such a wealth of knowledge and experience. Which is why we asked him to team up with us to make these install videos. We really appreciate your thoughtful and encouraging comments...ride safe!
Very helpful. Thank you. I like how you show how & why the parts snap together…. Makes the disassembly easier once I know how all of these Origami/Tetris pieces snap together
Hi Fred just installed my Homelink on the 22 goldwing spent about an hr or so. The programing of the two doors was so Ez. Thanks for the the video it made it look simple that why I decided to but it in the first place...Mike
Thanks for the great video. NOTE on my 2021, the harness was in a slightly different location. If you can't find it it's about 6 inches closer to the front of the bike just under 2 plugs that have the quick releases. Again thank you!
Thank you Fred for producing such a clear, professional video and best of all, a short cut to not take apart half the bike to make a simple modification to the control panel. Your timing in walking us through the video is perfect as well as including the details of how not break things or mark up the paint are so valuable. I gave it the thumbs up and I have also subscribed to your channel. Cheers !
Are there any Aussies here who have done this install? How did it go and how do we program for our various ‘Roller Door’ makes? Thanks for any advice, and Fred, you’ve some of the absolute best videos re DCT Gold Wings. Thank you! (And I will be subscribing to your video series.). All the best from Australia.
Very good work Fred. I removed all my panels as the instructions dictated. This also accommodated the install of the XM radio antenna and some new lights in the front. I really like the Homelink function, a must have for me.
An excellent instructive video. However, the cost of the homelink kit, plus the fiddly installation made me ask myself the question as to why is this a better option than having my small garage remote in my jacket pocket and simply pushing the remote button through the material of the pocket as I approach my garage? I couldn't think of any reasonable answer to this question so I shall just keep my small button remote in my pocket and activate the garage door that way and save the money and hassle of a Honda homelink kit to cover the annual cost of gasoline. 😊
These instructions are excellent - thank you! Now, if Honda would release some more HL kits we could all install them. Thanks again for your excellent video!
@@WingStuffTV I wanted to let you know that I finally had received mine (Amazon selling them...finally), after watching your video I was able to get mine installed in about an hour as well, much easier than taking the rear fender, right bag off etc. The hardest part get the cable end through the grommet hole, but patience and some smaller fingers got it so I could grab it with a pair of needle nose, other than that it went perfectly, finally I don't have to carry my opener any longer! Why Honda can't install these in the bikes new is beyond me, all the new cars for many years have had HomeLink, including Honda Automobiles!
If "C" was not going on.. and you were within 100 miles of me.. I'd take you out for your beverage of choice.. EXCELLENT Dude.. The only mistake one could make following your vid is snapping the plastic getting to the panel allen screws.. Perfect.. Subscribed.
The allen screws might be more easily removed/reinstalled, and the panel above them flexed to a lesser amount, by using a "ball end" allen wrench which allows the fastener to be turned at an angle. That's what I will do when I install mine.
Great video. Your method is a huge time saver. I did notice you created much of the reassembly portion of your video prior to adding the Homelink buttons. Oops, someone noticed. ;)
Hi Fred, could you give us an Hill Start Assist video, my 2018is flashing amber while riding and not sure what to do. I have your MX Video but can’t find anything on HSA. Thanks Franklin
Hi Johnny, thank you for your question. If you give our helpful customer service guys a call or email they should be able to help you out. You can reach them at 949-454-2199 or customerservice@wingstuff.com Monday-Friday 8am-4pm (PST)
Great video, but am I missing something? Why would throwing a garage door remote in your top compartment be inferior to spending 200 dollars on Homelink and installing it?
Hey Rick, it's all about convenience with the Homelink. For some riders, it's worth it to be able to open both their gate and/or garage door right from their bike controls. Thanks for your your question!
Hello again I come back to you because I realized that the frequency of my goldwing homlink is not compatible with beninca I ask you the question being an expert in this kind of technology is there a solution to synchronize my homelink with beninca thank you for your help
Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. We looked and couldn't find anything regarding Honda Homelink and beninca. Perhaps you can contact them (beninca) and see if they have a solution?
Is there any special ? To use external hard drive to play music, on my 2019 Goldwing? There is “SOMETHING “ that must be done to drive, so the bike can recognize. My phone gets too hot in box . A lot of people say they use thumb drive, but I can not get them to work. I do know you must first FORMAT, but then???
Jay I got the thumb drive to work. Just convert your music to MP3 on your computer and copy to the thumb drive or you can just buy a small iPod and it will work perfect because I do both
Thanks for the video I have just a question dose it work with all the remote control I have just both one homelink I want to be sur that will work with all frequencies thanks for unswer
I know this video is a little dated .. but couldnt you just use a long zip tie to snake the module harness through the frame ? .. painters tape and a tools list would be helpful.
I could not program my homelink following installation: when programming the homelink icon on dash flashes rapidly when I press the home link button on the motorcycle while pressing my garage door remote, but my home link on motorcycle will not program! Where could I have gone wrong? Installation was a piece of cake!
Hi do you know if this connector under the seat is available on all 2018+ Goldwing. The reason I ask is I fitted the Homelink but the connection plug is not there. ????
Again an excellent video, Fred. I did it all according the instructions with removing almost every panel. But it doesn't work, because my Dutch Goldwing doesn't have the main cable harness for the homelink. There is no connector hidden under my seat. Do you know if it is possible to get or make a connection?
I don't think you'll be able to add it if it didn't come from the factory. The bike needs both the firmware and wire harness for it to work, as well as a light in the dash panel.
@@FredH37 I'm afraid that's the case, although I think/hope Honda used the same firmware. I don't know if the European Tour version has the wiring and the Standard version does not, but, if that is the case, the firmware must be there.
Hi Ruud and Fred. The same issue here in the UK installed it but no connection under the seat full tour version dct with air bag. What did you do Ruud?
@@buddyrijders Thats what I was going to look at however did not think about a micro under the Homelink button. I sent my unit back and refitted the dummy switches so would be interested in how you plan to do the switch side. I was looking at a switch mounted on the fairing or even a handle bar switch.
Fred, Help!!! Everything was going great right up to the connecting the sub harness to the bike. I got everything installed just like you said and I found the booted connector right where you said it would be, but the connector is black not gray and it does NOT fit. Has something changed? Is there more than one booted blank connector? What do I need to do? Any additional help would be greatly appreciated. Everything I got was just like what you showed and the bike is a 2019. Please advise. Sincerely, Barney
Hi Fred from South Africa. I purchased the homelink from Wingstuff, did the entire installation and when I came to the end, connecting the grey plug, I am stuck. I cannot locate it. I have looked all over that area, even removed the left saddlebag, and still can't find that grey plug to connect to. Is there a way to find out, if South African bikes, comes with the plug? Maybe some code using vin numbers to see if there is a change in the build? Any advise will be highly appreciated sir.
I'm afraid I don't know the answer about this, I'm not familiar with all the different export models Honda made. I can tell you that some of those connectors are buried down deep inside of large black rubber boots, so make sure you aren't overlooking it. It may be hiding down deep in the bottom of a large black weather boot.
I'll just use a remote. For the price we paid, it should have been a standard just like the fog lights, which they made standard in 2020. It's not like Honda would have lost any money.
For the price of the bike, that should be in !!!!!To do this whole job just to open the garage door, really !!! For fog lights, I say sure. Listen all......Go on Amazon and order the MYQ for $45.00 a kit, set up the APP on any phone and in 1/2 and hour you are set to open your door even from Europe as long as you have strong cell or wifi connection from anywhere. I have the APP on my Iphone on the main screen and one click and the door is open for me. Makes no sense...LOL

Took me about an hour to do the entire installation!! No scratched plastic, no leftover screws or pins!!! Thank you !
Glad to hear it!
Whenever my Homelink order gets fulfilled I’ll have my iPad in the garage and be referencing Fred’s video.
