Tips on how to program your garage door remote management
Up to date on May 22, 2009 Sweeps Luck moreContact Creator It’s best to have the ability to program your garage door distant after reading this!
I will likely be talking about Liftmaster and Craftsman storage door openers. The Chamberlain Corporation makes Craftsman, Chamberlain, and Sears Craftsman storage door openers. Whether or not you have got a chain drive, a screw drive, or, a belt drive opener, they all program the same. There’s a “be taught” button on the machine that holds the data from the distant management. The be taught button may be located on the side of the opener but, most fashions have them on the rear of the machine. How one can locate the button simply is to find the place all of the wires are operating into the machine. The study button is normally sq., however, it can be spherical. The colors of the buttons may be white, yellow, green, crimson, or the brand new frequency is purple.
Look on the photo above and you can see the sq. (purple) button located on the left side of the “Logic board”. The logic board is the pc that tells the opener whatto do and when to do it. Additionally it is usually the first thing that lightening will hit in a thunderstorm. I basically is a radio frequency receiver that picks up electrically transmitted signals. Lightening is an electrical signal, and a really highly effective one. The little wire on the underside proper facet of the logic board is the receivers antenna. Don’t Cut IT OFF! I have have been to homes that the homeowners complained concerning the distant management only working once they get really near the door. Once you lower the wire you alter the frequency of the remote management, and need to substitute the logic board. The logic board can cost anyplace from 85.00 as much as 100.00 relying in your space. Oh, the costs i simply quoted did not embrace labor.
Now, for the programing part you will have been ready for. Hold down the square or spherical study button that is in your opener for about 20 seconds. This clears some other distant controls which will have been within the machine. Be aware: Should you unfastened your distant management, or, if you’re going via a divorce, you need the clear the opener so that undesirable individuals can no longer have access to your home. One other tip….. if you go to have your automotive serviced make sure you keep your remote management with you!
The rationale i say this, is not as a result of i am saying automotive dealerships or repairmen are crooks, however, there are exceptions to each rule. If you go to get your automobile repaired you give the folks your title, address, and your distant management. I do know of 1 drawback the place a customer dropped off her Mercedes to be labored on and the mechanic had her address, and took her remote management, and went to her home that night and stole her automotive. Just stick it into your pocket until you get your car again.
Okay, once cleared, you are taking each remote management, and go to the again of the opener the place the be taught button is. Hold the remote management button down, and push and release the learn button. It’s best to hear a click, and the lights on the machine might come on for a cut up second. When this happens, the remote management is programmed. Continue this course of till all remotes are programmed. Note: The opener will only hold five remote controls, or, four remote controls and one keyless entry.
I hope this helped. Keep checking my hubs, my subsequent one will deal with programing your automotive distant management to the opener.
Remember: Its good luck to shake hands with a sweep!

Ellen, after 5 attempts to program a remote it begins to drop the others already programmed. Hold within the good button for about 15 seconds. This clears the board. Now push and launch the sensible button and the push and hold the remote. The lightbulb will flash once when accepted. Just repeat this step. Hope this helps

I have 2 remotes 139.53681B and the batteries died, I replaced the batteries and they don’t seem to be reprogramming. I have a craftsman motor 41A5021-3H and it is still working. I’ve adopted the principles on the motor and searched for the guide and followed the directions to the best of my skills. The instructions are greek to me so I do not know if I’m doing right, can someone clarify in the simplest and stupidest of phrases? Which is the transmitter, and which is the receiver? Do i hold the opener button or simply press it, as a result of I’ve heard both solutions. I’m lost and confused please help ASAP.
I figured it out. To assist others, this is what I did. The 315 receiver WILL settle for the 371LM remote. Could not imagine it!
First time doing it and now have second distant. I ordered the 371LM from a website and the man advised me to pop of receiver entrance panel. Press the only button in entrance on receiver, gentle comes on then press 371LM remote. It was that easy. My husband could not imagine it when he came house within the automobile and was ready to use older 315 remote too in opening storage door. Now we now have 2 working remotes for and OLDER garage door opener.
What shade is the study button on the machine.?
kathleen hoover
I would like so as to add second distant to GDO Sears #139.655. The primary distant is a Sears 315. There is a 3x three receiver plugged into outlet. I ordered a 371LM remote and the guy on-line said I should pop cover off receiver box ,press small button, crimson light will come on , then press button on remote. So I don’t should stand up on a ladder and press purple sq. button at the motor in any respect? On the skin of storage a key is required to open storage door and i want to open door with second remote from inside house. Thanks for you assist.
John hold down the learn button for about 20 seconds. This clears the board. Then try to reprogram the remotes. Push and launch the study button dont hold it down when programming. If the machine will nonetheless solely accept one or two you could have a nasty board and needs to be changed
John Chitty
We have now a Craftman’s 315. We need to program two remotes. When one is programmed the other stops working. What can we do?
A universal distant could be programmed to your machine the identical approach . Its somewhat difficult however if you happen to read the directions it walks you thru it
Mindy
I have a dumb query. If automotive visor remotes could be programmed just by holding down the button after which pressing the button on the unique distant control, why do not they make universal remotes that work this manner? (or do they work that means but just do not tell you in the manual?)
3 years ago from Fountain Inn
in case you have the proper remote control…it would be the logic board. The distant could also be not working either. what colour is the be taught button in your machine?

My cell is ok to ship 864 979-9965
I took a pic. However I don’t know the right way to ship it to u. However to reply your remark above. No red inexperienced or purple square button.
The be taught button is sq.. May very well be crimson green or purple. It’s located where the wires come into the machine
Roger
Went to the unit. Looked all over the place for the learn button. Nothing. Took off the rear panel to see if it is within the rear of the unit. Nothing however an enormous circuit board and never one button on there to press or something that says be taught? Took okay the light cowl and nothing.. I’m lost
4 years in the past from Fountain Inn
Roger. Go to the machine and press and launch the square be taught button then go to the keypad and enter your 4 digit number and press and hold the enter button down. It is best to hesr a click on on the machine and the lightbulb should flash. Let me know when you have problems

Hey Luck,
Not having much luck myself in search of data on an previous Craftman 1/2 HP opener, mannequin: HBW0777 and discovering out how my remotes it’ll handle. I’m attempting to implement 5 Clicker brand KLIK1u s and a remote keypad. Can ya point me in the suitable path for data on that or persuade me outright of what number of it may possibly handle?

Jonathan, you will need to change the distant. Marantec is a good machine but, the remote controls and keypads arent as good as i feel they should. Sorry but something is unfastened on the inside..Joe
Jonathan bowden
Hello, I’ve a marantec system with a 2 button m3-2312 remote. The wall management all the time works, but Some days the distant works and a few days it would not. Marantech troubleshooting says that if the led mild does not mild up while you push the distant button, that I should change the battery. The issue is that there are two buttons, a large and small. The led lights up when i press the small bottom button, however no led gentle up after i press the big button. Additionally, I tried to reprogram per the instructions, to no avail. Please help!
Bj…you in all probability have a machine that has dip switches..they’re small switches which can be positioned where the wires go into the machine. Let me know…if it does..you’ll need an 61LM remote..Joe

Yes I can. The door open from the inside button only. It could open with one contact . I hear the clicking after i re-plug the machine. I do not hear it when I try to program the remote. I stood on a ladder urgent on holding the distant then urgent on the sq. button but did not hear a click on.

Serial # 45575c00277. Help me please. I am bored with waking back and forth since my storage would not have an entry to the home.
Thank you

Kevin
Thanks for all of your help.
Having hassle with a chamberlain distant. The distant that I’ve will function a second opener high quality however I am unable to it to recognize my first opener. I do have a homelink opener in my automotive that works fine with the first opener. I tried clearing the codes and it didn’t appear to help. Any recommendations?
Angela…the mschine will solely settle for 5 remotes total..Four remotes and one keypad in different phrases..or visa versa..first clear the codes by holding the crimson study button in for about 20 seconds..then press and launch the study button and enter your 4 door access control kit digit quantity into the keypad..press the enter key down and hold it down til you see the lightbulb on the machine flash and you hear a click on. The keypad is in there now.

You should see the lightbulb flash again and hear the click. If you will get only one or two remotes to program or they’ll program one and not the other..it has a bad logic board and needs replacing..hope this helps..Joe
Angela
We now have a craftsman overhead opener with the purple sq. button. Our keypad went dangerous so we bought a new one. Once we programmed the key pad we needed to reset all the codes so the vehicles remotes then wouldn’t work. How can we get all of them to work together. We tried resetting all the codes and programming the automobiles remotes first then we can’t get the keypad to program. We also tried the opposite approach around. Can at all times get one to program however not the second. PLEASE Assist Tremendous Frustrated!!
Joanne..the yellow button is the be taught button..ok now that i do know that…press the yellow learn button for about 15 to 20 seconds…this erases The entire remote controls. Next be sure all remotes hoe the dip switches in the identical place…then take one of many remote controls…and press and hold down the button on the remote…then press and launch the study button..it needs to be programmed then…then do the same for the opposite remotes when you’ve got extra
Hello. Thanks for the speedy reply. No, no learn button in any respect. After studying via the web ….I have come to that conclusion. I consider I have a fixed Code Setting. After removing the light cover on the entrance and the again of the motor unit on the ceiling, all I can see is the antenna, the 2 knobs for regulating the pace/drive of the door, there is one small yellow push button with an L.E.D. beside it………that is all.
It is a 1/2 HP Steelcraft Mannequin 1160SC . Could possibly the code be underneath some panel I should unscrew on the housing of the motor unit????
I do know the unit works as a result of I held that yellow button down whereas holding down the distant control in the opposite hand with the L.E.D. even lighting up.
Joanne..yours may have a learn button on the machine…if it does..all it’s a must to do is set the dip switches the place you want them after which press and hold the distant management button down and then press and release the be taught button. If the machine has dip switches they are going to be located the place the wires are going into the machine..let me know if in case you have questions…Joe
joanne

Are you able to assist me. We have a 1993 Steelcraft Remote….somebody has knocked change the pin settings within the distant (when all they need to have executed was just put in a new battery lol)I’ve appeared everywhere on the ceiling mounted motor unit, and on the small guide controller (mounted on the wall)….and i cannot discover the change settings so I can change the distant back to what it ought to be. They won’t appear to be the identical switches in the remote I assume….are they written in code perhaps….I can’t find any switches on this unit…Can you assist please????
Marie..no sorry the frequencies are completely different
marie
is it attainable to program an older 8 dip switch chamberlain remote to work with a newer genie screw drive garage door operator system?
Niloo..you could have a foul logic board..it has taken a energy surge..you might want to exchange the board or the complete opener.
Niloo
Thx. Very helpful, but after i program one remote, the 2nd remote stops working! The cycle goes on regardless of what number of occasions I do it. What do I do? One of many /2 remotes don’t work?
You want another logic board..it has taken a energy surge..sorry
Spencestan..sure it sounds like it has taken a power surge…as soon as they take a surge, the machine will do crazy issues. How previous is the machine? What coloration be taught button does it have?
spencestan
I’ve the Liftmaster 1265 security+ unit on my rental. Solely 1 (of the original 2) remote works, I reset the unit and likewise cannot program the renter’s new Jeep to the working distant. Studying the various posts above implies the management board is dangerous, time for a brand new one.
However my question is the working remote previously would cease the garage door from opening/closing if I pressed the distant button once more, now I need to look forward to it to fully open/shut before changing the route.
Is that this another symptom of a failing control board?
Sure, the exhausting-wired unit works normally to alter course.
Jair..a inexperienced be taught button makes use of a 81LM distant..sorry the 97LM is for a red button..Completely different frequencys.
jair
can i open the garage with a 971LM management in a garage with green mild learn button?, is there someway?
Thanks rather a lot. A lot appreciated!
Brenda you want the 61LM remote is what i used to be informed at the moment..hope this helps..they are about to be phased out soon
Alexis…you will need to get a 61LM remote..which is a dipswitch remote..take the again of the remote off where the battery goes, and you will note the dipswitches..match the dipswithes on the reeiver and it should work for ya
we don’t have any learn button. There is barely a dipswitch within the receiver and never the motor.
Alexis..some of them work and some dont..i personally dont counsel people getting them..what coloration is your study button, and i’ll let you recognize which remote you should utilize
alexis
hello I have an old craftsman 139664020. I simply purchased a chamberlain klik1u and am having hassle programming it. Does this distant not work with this previous storage door opener?
Thx lots to your trouble!
Brenda..i’ll examine tomorrow andmake certain which remote works that one..i think its a 61lm and you will have to purchase that one from a door distributor….of whick i also am..but in addition they will be purchased on ebay
Ok….in the sunshine of day, I appeared at the machine and see that there is a yellow be taught button. I held it down for 20 secs and heard a click. I then pressed the button on the remote and held it down while I pushed and released the be taught button. If I’ve performed all that correctly then I am going to assume that the remotes do not work on my opener. As I mentioned….they were freebies so it was a shot at nighttime! Let me know if I’ve accomplished something incorrectly in any other case I assume I’ll have to see if I can find a compatible remote for my opener. I don’t see the model quantity on the opener however it’s 1/2 HP and the model# on the again for the circuit board is 41A3493-1. Do you know if it’s attainable to nonetheless get suitable remotes for such an outdated mannequin? I’m promoting the home which is why I want to get at the least one distant but don’t wish to invest in a brand new opener! thx again!
Brenda..in case your machine has dip switches..they are going to be on the motor on the ceiling. Look at the machine and where you see the wires coming into it..look and see when you see dip switches or a be taught button…let me know and i might help ya..Joe
Brenda
I’ve a outdated craftsman storage door opener (circa 1983). It really works with the keypad that is screwed into the garage wall but I lost the remotes ages ago. Someone gave me 2 craftsman remotes from the same time interval. I opened one of many remotes and it has the dip switches so I assumed I just needed to open the stationary keypad and match the remote switches to what was inside. Now…bear in thoughts I do not know of what I’m doing beyond that! I unscrewed the cowl of the box on the wall (sure I disconnected the ability) and i can see the circuit board but no dip switches. I don’t need to interrupt it so fairly than do something additional I determined to google. Can you steer me in the right route? Superior thread right here btw. thx!
Don..it could have been a close lightening strike or power surge.
Thanks. I think the logic board must be dangerous
Godsgirl..sure you’ll need a distant that works with the Legacy
The remote was for another storage door opener I do not suppose I’ll be able to get it to work, its an RCS 318T and the storage opener is an Overhead Door Legacy. I could have to simply go purchase a new distant.
Mig..look to see if the wall button is flashing..whether it is..it is in vacation mode..or locked out..if the wall button is flashing the remotes won’t work. Let me know..Joe
Don..this may match or might not..unplug the machine for a couple of minutes..then plug it back in and clear the machine and then attempt to reprogram the remotes..if it wont settle for them after this..the logic board is unhealthy
Don C
Hi, I’ve a 99 lift master security + w/ a pink learn button. I recently got a key chain garage door distant. After my child misplaced 1 of our remotes. So I cleared out all of the outdated codes. I can get 1 distant or the other to program however not both. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Mig
Hi, I have two Chamberlain Liftmaster Professionals. I have not used the remotes in just a few years. I just changed the batteries in every (3) remotes and cleared all outdated remotes. I followed the directions to reprogram the remotes. Once i press the buttons on the remotes , this system light subsequent to the study button blinks indicating it is receiving a sign (I think) but the door will not be opening. They solely open and close with the wall mounted switches. Any concept what’s improper?
Viral..you have to erase all of the doorways and begin over..Go to every machine and hold the learn button in about 15 seconds..then release the be taught button and pick up the distant you want to program to the door. Press and relase the learn button, and then press and hold the distant button down until you hear a click on..its programmed..do the remainder the same manner.. Let me know you probably have issues….Joe

Hello, i have three storage doorways. My storage remotes and keypad (craftsman) stopped understanding of the blue. I hit the study button on the primary two doorways and by some means programmed all of the remotes to open both doorways without delay. HOw do i get them to open each separately (one remote for one door). all the remotes open two doorways without delay. It is rather irritating. i tried your recommendation about resetting and pressing the learn button and distant button however they continue to open and close each doorways together. What can i do?
Cliff..you’ll have to loosen the chain on the machine. The place you loosen the chain in on the traveler..where the purple release cord is. When you loosen the chain just a little..take the bolt out of the rail that the traveler is jammed in opposition to. Now, before you turn the machine again on..flip your up limit screw to open much less. Id say flip it at the least a full flip..thentighten the chain back up put the bolt again in and then reset your limits. If it continues to hit the cease bolt..you both have an issue with the limit assembly r logic board..check the limit meeting first tho..hope this helps..Joe
Cliff

I have an old Sears Craftsman 1/2 horse opener. It has a purple be taught button, with a yellow gentle that comes on once you push the be taught button. I have a grey craftsman 315 controller, with one black button. I tried to push the be taught button for 20 seconds to clear, then push my black button and the be taught button once more.

Brandon, the stanley remotes won’t work on the craftsman opener..totally different frequencys..sorry
Brandon
I have a safe ode stanley garsge door opener and two sears/craftsman remotes which are 139.53778. Is there a way I might program those remotes to work with the garsge opener? Thank you!
Micheal if the sensible button is crimson..you want to use the 971,,,if its inexperienced..you employ the 81lm..a new logic board is about 90.00..so a distant is a less expensive repair..hope this helps..Joe
Joe – ought to i return the 971LM and purchas one other 81LM so they’re each workning the freq? is there any good learning remotes in the marketplace which are universal to all modules? we’re solely renting the property and don’t wish to spend to much in order to have two remotes,logic board sounds expensive.
– Michael
Micheal..Sure the 971lm is for the pink sensible button. Im surprised the 61lm is working at all on that machine. If you have problems programming both the 971lms..you’ve got an issue with the logic board…..Joe
Michael
Hello Sweeps,
We’ve simply moved into our new home and solely recieved on distant for our elevate grasp unit. After following the steps on the net I purchased the 971LM due to the fact that I had Pink programming button on the unit, in saying that the unique remote was a 81LM (in line with the sticker on the back) I am now having difficulties programming each remotes, I can get them to work one at a time but not together, is this a frequency subject? ought to I have both remotes with the same model quantity? I think it was unusual that the 81LM was in a position to work with the pink programming button, the place the remote needs to be for the inexperienced button.
Hi What coloration is the study button on your machine red, green or purple?
chrispy
Hey Sweeps. I’ve been going crazy trying to syn my wireless keypad to my opener. I can by no means get the learn light to blink. My keypad# is 139.18795 and my opener is a Craftsman 139.1847D. Any concepts?? Thx
Jason, i hate to say this but you may have a bad logic board. In case you change the board you’re about half of the price of a brand new machine…It’s best to simply exchange the unit. Sorry but oneremote is all you will get it to program..Joe
Jason
I have tried all of the ways I may discover all over online. I have 2 remotes one stopped working after i washed it. Additionally I have 2 brand new remotes. All are 64LM remotes. I cannot get the brand new remotes to program in any respect. I did set the 9 dip switches. On my 2 present remotes, I did get the washed one to program once more. However no mater what procedure I try I can only get one distant to program to the door. I wiped the opener clear by urgent button for 6 seconds. All remotes were cleared. I then held transmitter, saw led in opener blinking, hit study button for 1 second. That one works. When i add the second remote in the identical way door open or door closed it should erase the first distant. So no mater what the only remote that works is the final one programed. I have 2 doors and it is identical on each. I’m at the purpose of buying new items. These are slightly older but I consider they’re extra current than the 1997 that everyone refers to.
Kewon..no sorry they wont work with one another..Each have totally different frequencys..if it has a purple square button..it uses a 971LM remote..the new machines have a purple square button and it uses a 371LM
kewon
Hey Joe is it doable to program previous remotes to a newer opener? I tried to program with none success the bizarre thing is that after programming the old one, after i strive to make use of it the sunshine blinks as if its getting the signal but the door doesn’t transfer…
Sam..no sorry..it has to make use of the 315 mhz remote.
