Eduardo831 Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hello My question is my journey did not come with the drivers side visor with homelink capability(pg.78 owners manual). I was wondering if I were to purchase a oem Journey visor with homelink integrated would it work on mine? like plug n play or would there be some necessary splicing or dealer programming to have it work completely. Yes I have a garage door opener remote, but would be nice to just have it integrated. Some input would be nice. My 2015 Journey is 8.4 unconnect 3.6L SXT trim model just in case it matters. Thanks in advance for some input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Homelink modules tend to be stand-alone, so it SHOULD be as simple as replacing the sun visor, though I have no idea whether the wiring harness has the connector to plug it in there - certainly there is power to run the makeup light, but is it the SAME power feed? Does it have the same connector? Worst case? You resell it. Eduardo831 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo831 Posted August 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Thanks for the info bramfrank I'll definitely look into it and report back in my findings. And what you said makes sense I do know that the Homelink uses direct power from the cars battery so only issue would be making sure the wires or plugs are the same or spliced. 2late4u and OhareFred 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justinmh Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Another thing to confirm is that the power source is switched. I have the home link on my sunvisor which does not get power with the vehicle off and the antitheft armed Eduardo831 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
