First, locate the programming button on your Subaru garage door opener. This button is typically found on the garage door opener unit itself or on the remote control. Once you’ve found the programming button, follow these steps:

If the garage door does not respond, double-check that you’ve followed the steps correctly and that the power to the opener has been turned off and on before attempting to program it again.
In some cases, you may need to reset the garage door opener to its factory settings before programming it. To do this, locate the reset button on the garage door opener unit or remote control and press it for about 5 seconds. The indicator light should turn off, indicating that the opener has been reset.
