Default Homelink

Hey,

Does anyone have experience with how homelink works? I've got homelink from factory but it doesn't work any more. When I press any of the 3 program buttons nothing happens (a red light should light up but it doesn't). Audi dealership told me that some module has stopped working and replacing it costs something like 770€, which is rather outrageous. On ebay I found some homelink modules designed for audi a8 that cost from 120€ to 250€.
Does anyone know where the homelink module is and how much replacing it would cost? Is there anything else that might need changing?

Thanks for any info

Other than the overhead components, the manual says the "Garage Door Module" is located behind the left front bumper.
