Homelink LED Broken?

I was messing around with my homelink trying to program my girlfriends garage with it and the LED won't come on at all, not even when I just push 1 button. I tried holding the outer 2 buttons in and clearing it out but the LED still won't lite. I have never used it before (well back when I got the car in DEC 01, the LED at least lit up, I never programmed the buttons for anything).

Any ideas???

Thanks

Already did that. It is tied to the #11 fuse on the passenger side fuse panel. I'm going to check the wiring to it this weekend. I emailed Homelink and they told me to go to my dealer. Go figure.

Try pulling it out of the ceiling and see if you have power with a multimeter; at least it's a start. You may be lucky and find a bad connector...

Just did that too. There is only one connector for the maplights and homelink. The lights work and there is 12V on the wires so it looks like a bad homelink transmitter. I got a quote and I can replace the whole console with Homelink for ~$200. A little too much. I might try and get one from a junk yard or eBay.
