How you can program your storage door distant management
Updated on Might 22, 2009 Sweeps Luck moreContact Author It is best to have the ability to program your garage door distant after reading this!

I might be speaking about Liftmaster and Craftsman garage door openers. The Chamberlain Company makes Craftsman, Chamberlain, and Sears Craftsman storage door openers. Whether you have got a sequence drive, a screw drive, or, a belt drive opener, they all program the identical. There is a “study” button on the machine that holds the data from the distant management. The learn button could also be positioned on the facet of the opener however, most models have them on the rear of the machine. How one can find the button easily is to seek out the place the entire wires are operating into the machine. The study button is normally square, however, it may be spherical. The colors of the buttons might be white, yellow, inexperienced, purple, or the new frequency is purple.

Look on the photograph above and you can see the sq. (pink) button positioned on the left aspect of the “Logic board”. The logic board is the computer that tells the opener whatto do and when to do it. It is also often the very first thing that lightening will hit in a thunderstorm. I basically is a radio frequency receiver that picks up electrically transmitted alerts. Lightening is an electrical sign, and a very highly effective one. The little wire on the bottom right facet of the logic board is the receivers antenna. Do not Reduce IT OFF! I’ve have been to homes that the homeowners complained concerning the remote control solely working when they get really near the door. When you lower the wire you alter the frequency of the distant control, and should substitute the logic board. The logic board can cost wherever from 85.00 as much as 100.00 relying on your space. Oh, the prices i just quoted didn’t embrace labor.

Now, for the programing half you’ve gotten been waiting for. Hold down the square or spherical be taught button that is on your opener for about 20 seconds. This clears any other remote controls that may have been within the machine. Word: If you happen to free your remote management, or, if you’re going through a divorce, you want the clear the opener in order that unwanted folks can no longer have access to your house. Another tip….. when you go to have your car serviced make sure you keep your remote management with you!

The reason i say this, isn’t because i’m saying automotive dealerships or repairmen are crooks, but, there are exceptions to every rule. Once you go to get your automobile repaired you give the folks your identify, deal with, and your remote control. I do know of one problem the place a customer dropped off her Mercedes to be worked on and the mechanic had her deal with, and took her remote control, and went to her home that evening and stole her automobile. Just stick it into your pocket until you get your car back.

Okay, once cleared, you’re taking each remote management, and go to the again of the opener where the be taught button is. Hold the remote control button down, and push and release the learn button. You should hear a click on, and the lights on the machine might come on for a split second. When this occurs, the distant control is programmed. Proceed this course of till all remotes are programmed. Notice: The opener will only hold 5 remote controls, or, four remote controls and one keyless entry.

I hope this helped. Keep checking my hubs, my next one will deal with programing your car distant control to the opener.

Remember: Its good luck to shake palms with a sweep!

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

I just purchased a 2017 Subaru Outback and I was capable of successfully program the Starlink mirror/opener to open my storage however now neither of my hand held openers work for my other cars. Can you please help me?

I have 2 remotes 139.53681B and the batteries died, I changed the batteries and they’re not reprogramming. I have a craftsman motor 41A5021-3H and it is nonetheless working. I have adopted the foundations on the motor and looked for the manual and adopted the instructions to the better of my skills. The instructions are greek to me so I do not know if I’m doing proper, can someone clarify in the only and stupidest of terms? 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 answers. I’m lost and confused please assist ASAP.

I figured it out. To assist others, that is what I did. The 315 receiver WILL settle for the 371LM remote. Couldn’t believe it!

First time doing it and now have second distant. I ordered the 371LM from a website and the man told me to pop of receiver entrance panel. Press the one button in front on receiver, mild comes on then press 371LM distant. It was that straightforward. My husband couldn’t imagine it when he came home in the automobile and was able to use older 315 remote too in opening storage door. Now we’ve got 2 working remotes for and OLDER storage door opener.

What colour is the learn button on the machine.?

kathleen hoover

I would like so as to add second distant to GDO Sears #139.655. The first distant is a Sears 315. There is a 3x three receiver plugged into outlet. I ordered a 371LM remote and the man on-line mentioned I ought to pop cowl off receiver field ,press small button, red gentle will come on , then press button on distant. So I don’t need to stand up on a ladder and press crimson square button at the motor at all? On the skin of storage a key is required to open garage door and i wish to open door with second distant from inside home. Thanks for you help.

John hold down the be taught button for about 20 seconds. This clears the board. Then try to reprogram the remotes. Push and release the be taught button dont hold it down when programming. If the machine will still solely settle for one or two you may have a foul board and needs to be changed

John Chitty

We have a Craftman’s 315. We need to program two remotes. When one is programmed the opposite stops working. What can we do?

A common remote might be programmed to your machine the identical method . Its a little bit tough but when you learn the directions it walks you via it

Mindy

I have a dumb question. If automobile visor remotes may be programmed simply by holding down the button and then urgent the button on the unique distant control, why don’t they make universal remotes that work this manner? (or do they work that way however simply do not inform you within the guide?)

Three years ago from Fountain Inn

if in case you have the right remote control…it stands out as the logic board. The distant could also be not working both. what coloration is the study button in your machine?

fady

good day i’ve a elevate grasp the clicker is just not working so i tried to reset it and nonetheless not working its not recognizing the raise grasp what’s the following step thanks

My cell is okay to ship 864 979-9965

I took a pic. However I don’t know the right way to send it to u. However to answer your remark above. No purple green or purple square button.

The learn button is sq.. Could be crimson inexperienced or purple. It is situated where the wires come into the machine

Roger

Went to the unit. Regarded in all places for the study button. Nothing. Took off the rear panel to see if it is in the rear of the unit. Nothing however a large circuit board and not one button on there to press or anything that says be taught? Took ok the sunshine cowl and nothing.. I am lost

four years ago from Fountain Inn

Roger. Go to the machine and press and launch the sq. be taught button then go to the keypad and enter your four digit number and press and hold the enter button down. You should hesr a click on on the machine and the lightbulb ought to flash. Let me know when you’ve got problems

RogerM

I have the previous liftmaster 1055 model and it has a wireless keypad that is attached to the door. I remover the wireless key pad, cleaned it and changed the battery. It seems brand new and it lights up. It has the numbers 1 thru 9 and the number zero next to the enter button. So how in the world do I program this keypad to open and close the door? Please assist

Trish

I wish to program my remote to open the gate to our neighborhood. How is that this done.

Jack

This helped me massive time. Thanks.

Bob Schmo

Hey Luck,

Not having a lot luck myself searching for info on an previous Craftman 1/2 HP opener, mannequin: HBW0777 and discovering out how my remotes it will handle. I am trying to implement 5 Clicker model KLIK1u s and a remote keypad. Can ya level me in the suitable route for data on that or persuade me outright of what number of it could handle?

Thanks,

-Bob

Jonathan, you will need to change the distant. Marantec is a good machine however, the distant controls and keypads arent nearly as good as i believe they need to. Sorry but something is loose on the inside..Joe

Jonathan bowden

Hey, I have a marantec system with a 2 button m3-2312 remote. The wall management at all times works, but Some days the remote works and a few days it does not. Marantech troubleshooting says that if the led gentle would not gentle up while you push the remote 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 backside button, however no led light up when i press the large button. Additionally, I tried to reprogram per the directions, to no avail. Please help!

Bj…you probably have a machine that has dip switches..they’re small switches which might be positioned the place the wires go into the machine. Let me know…if it does..you will have an 61LM remote..Joe

bj10

I’ve a very outdated Sears Craftsman garage door; the management panel on the wall has two buttons that it’s important to push at same time to either open or close. I checked the overheard and it is mannequin 139.664300. it doesn’t appear to have a be taught button. how can I program two new remotes? I do not need the directions. Please assist. Thanks

Yes I can. The door open from the inside button solely. It can open with one contact . I hear the clicking after i re-plug the machine. I don’t hear it when I try to program the distant. I stood on a ladder pressing on holding the distant then pressing on the square button but did not hear a click.

5 years in the past from Fountain Inn

Hena..do you’ve to hold the wall button all the way down to get the door to go up or down? Oe, are you able to press and release the button and the door will work?

hena

5 years in the past

My storage door opener works only from the interior button. It stopped working from a distant management nor the automobiles. I don’t see a clear button to reprogram the machine. It is Craftsman Model 139.53648SRT1

Serial # 45575c00277. Help me please. I’m uninterested in waking again and forth since my storage doesn’t have an access to the house.

Thank you

Okay its a new machine.. does each of the remotes work? If so, the logic board is dangerous and must be replaced.

It’s purple

Kevin if the machine is only recognizing one distant or the opposite..you’ve gotten a foul logic board..what shade be taught button does it have?

Kevin

Thanks for all of your assist.

Having bother with a chamberlain distant. The distant that I have will operate a second opener advantageous but I can’t it to acknowledge my first opener. I do have a homelink opener in my automotive that works superb with the primary opener. I tried clearing the codes and it didn’t appear to help. Any options?

Angela…the mschine will solely settle for 5 remotes complete..Four remotes and one keypad in different phrases..or visa versa..first clear the codes by holding the purple learn button in for about 20 seconds..then press and release the study button and enter your 4 digit number 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. The keypad is in there now. Now the remotes..the remotes should be learned by the automotive first..program the distant to the car..after the automotive has accepted the code..press and launch the red learn button after which press and hold the vehicles homelink button. You should see the lightbulb flash again and listen to the click. If you can get just one or two remotes to program or they are going to program one and never the opposite..it has a foul logic board and needs replacing..hope this helps..Joe

Angela

Now we have a craftsman overhead opener with the pink sq. button. Our keypad went unhealthy so we purchased a new one. Once we programmed the key pad we had to reset all of the codes so the cars remotes then wouldn’t work. How can we get all of them to work collectively. We tried resetting all of the codes and programming the vehicles remotes first then we will not get the keypad to program. We also tried the opposite means round. Can at all times get one to program but not the second. PLEASE Help Tremendous Pissed off!!

Joanne..the yellow button is the study button..ok now that i know that…press the yellow be taught button for about 15 to 20 seconds…this erases All the remote controls. Subsequent ensure that all remotes hoe the dip switches in the same place…then take one of the remote controls…and press and hold down the button on the remote…then press and launch the be taught button..it needs to be programmed then…then do the identical for the other remotes if in case you have more

Hello. Thanks for the speedy reply. No, no be taught button in any respect. After reading by way of the internet ….I’ve come to that conclusion. I imagine I have a hard and fast Code Setting. After removing the sunshine 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 speed/pressure of the door, there’s one small yellow push button with an L.E.D. beside it………that’s all.

It’s a 1/2 HP Steelcraft Model 1160SC . Might possibly the code be underneath some panel I must unscrew on the housing of the motor unit????

I know the unit works as a result of I held that yellow button down while holding down the remote control in the other hand with the L.E.D. even lighting up.

Joanne..yours could have a be taught button on the machine…if it does..all you must do is set the dip switches the place you need them after which press and hold the distant management button down and then press and launch the study button. If the machine has dip switches they will be located where the wires are going into the machine..let me know if in case you have questions…Joe

joanne

Hello….it’s so good to see you serving to so many people.

Are you able to assist me. We’ve a 1993 Steelcraft Distant….somebody has knocked change the pin settings in the remote (when all they need to have accomplished was just put in a brand new battery lol)I’ve appeared all over the place on the ceiling mounted motor unit, and on the small manual controller (mounted on the wall)….and that i can not find the switch settings so I can change the remote back to what it must be. They won’t appear like the same switches within the remote I assume….are they written in code perhaps….I can’t discover any switches on this unit…Are you able to help please????

Marie..no sorry the frequencies are different

marie

is it doable to program an older eight dip change chamberlain remote to work with a newer genie screw drive garage door operator system?

Niloo..you have got a nasty logic board..it has taken a power surge..you will need to change the board or the whole opener.

Niloo

Thx. Very helpful, but when 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 need one other logic board..it has taken a power surge..sorry

Spencestan..sure it sounds prefer it has taken a energy surge…as soon as they take a surge, the machine will do loopy things. How old is the machine? What coloration learn button does it have?

spencestan

I have the Liftmaster 1265 security+ unit on my rental. Only 1 (of the unique 2) distant works, I reset the unit and in addition cannot program the renter’s new Jeep to the working distant. Studying the numerous posts above implies the management board is dangerous, time for a new one.

However my query is the working distant beforehand would stop the garage door from opening/closing if I pressed the distant button once more, now I should wait for it to fully open/close before changing the direction.

Is that this another symptom of a failing control board?

Yes, the hard-wired unit works normally to alter path.

Jair..a inexperienced learn button uses a 81LM distant..sorry the 97LM is for a red button..Completely completely different frequencys.

jair

can i open the storage with a 971LM management in a storage with inexperienced gentle be taught button?, is there someway?

Thanks so much. Much appreciated!

Brenda you need the 61LM remote is what i was advised at this time..hope this helps..they’re about to be phased out quickly

Alexis…you will need to get a 61LM remote..which is a dipswitch distant..take the back of the remote off the place the battery goes, and you will notice the dipswitches..match the dipswithes on the reeiver and it should work for ya

we haven’t any learn button. There is simply a dipswitch in the receiver and not the motor.

Alexis..some of them work and a few dont..i personally dont recommend individuals getting them..what color is your be taught button, and i’ll let you recognize which distant you should use

alexis

hello I have an outdated craftsman 139664020. I just purchased a chamberlain klik1u and am having trouble programming it. Does this distant not work with this outdated storage door opener?

Thx lots on your trouble!

Brenda..i’ll examine tomorrow andmake certain which distant works that one..i feel its a 61lm and you will have to purchase that one from a door distributor….of whick i also am..however additionally they can be bought on ebay

Okay….in the sunshine of day, I regarded at the machine and see that there’s a yellow study button. I held it down for 20 secs and heard a click. I then pressed the button on the remote and held it down whereas I pushed and released the be taught button. If I’ve finished all that correctly then I’m going to assume that the remotes don’t work on my opener. As I said….they were freebies so it was a shot at midnight! Let me know if I’ve completed something incorrectly otherwise I assume I’ll need to see if I can find a compatible distant for my opener. I don’t see the mannequin quantity on the opener but it’s 1/2 HP and the model# on the back for the circuit board is 41A3493-1. Are you aware if it’s possible to nonetheless get suitable remotes for such an old mannequin? I’m promoting the house which is why I need to get at the very least one distant however don’t wish to spend money on a new opener! thx again!

Brenda..if your machine has dip switches..they are going to be on the motor on the ceiling. Look at the machine and the place you see the wires coming into it..look and see if you see dip switches or a study button…let me know and i may help ya..Joe

Brenda

I have a old craftsman storage door opener (circa 1983). It works with the keypad that is screwed into the storage wall however I lost the remotes ages ago. Somebody gave me 2 craftsman remotes from the identical time interval. I opened one of the remotes and it has the dip switches so I assumed I simply needed to open the stationary keypad and match the distant switches to what was inside. Now…bear in thoughts I have no idea of what I’m doing past that! I unscrewed the cover of the field on the wall (sure I disconnected the facility) and that i can see the circuit board however no dip switches. I don’t want to break it so reasonably than do anything further I decided to google. Are you able to steer me in the precise path? Awesome thread right here btw. thx!

Don..it could have been a detailed lightening strike or power surge.

Thanks. I feel the logic board must be bad

Godsgirl..yes you have to a distant that works with the Legacy

The distant was for another storage door opener I don’t think I’ll be capable of get it to work, its an RCS 318T and the storage opener is an Overhead Door Legacy. I may have to simply go purchase a new remote.

Mig..look to see if the wall button is flashing..if it is..it’s in trip mode..or locked out..if the wall button is flashing the remotes won’t work. Let me know..Joe

Don..this may fit or could not..unplug the machine for a few minutes..then plug it again in and clear the machine and then try to reprogram the remotes..if it wont settle for them after this..the logic board is unhealthy

Don C

Hello, I have a ninety nine lift grasp safety + w/ a crimson be taught button. I recently obtained a key chain storage door distant. After my child misplaced 1 of our remotes. So I cleared out all of the previous codes. I can get 1 distant or the other to program however not each. Thanks for any make it easier to can give.

Mig

Hello, I’ve two Chamberlain Liftmaster Professionals. I haven’t used the remotes in a couple of years. I simply replaced the batteries in every (3) remotes and cleared all old remotes. I followed the instructions to reprogram the remotes. Once i press the buttons on the remotes , the program light next to the study button blinks indicating it is receiving a sign (I feel) but the door just isn’t opening. They solely open and close with the wall mounted switches. Any thought what’s wrong?

Viral..that you must erase the entire doors and start over..Go to each machine and hold the learn button in about 15 seconds..then release the learn button and choose up the distant you wish to program to the door. Press and relase the learn button, and then press and hold the distant button down till you hear a click..its programmed..do the remainder the same means.. Let me know if in case you have issues….Joe

Hi, i have 3 storage doors. My garage remotes and keypad (craftsman) stopped working out of the blue. I hit the be taught button on the primary two doorways and one way or the other programmed all of the remotes to open both doorways without delay. HOw do i get them to open every one individually (one remote for one door). all the remotes open two doorways at once. It is vitally irritating. i tried your recommendation about resetting and pressing the be taught button and distant button but they continue to open and close each doors together. What can i do?

Cliff..you will have to loosen the chain on the machine. Where you loosen the chain in on the traveler..where the pink launch cord is. Once you loosen the chain just a little..take the bolt out of the rail that the traveler is jammed towards. Now, earlier than you turn the machine back on..turn your up limit screw to open less. Id say flip it at least a full flip..thentighten the chain back up put the bolt again in after which reset your limits. If it continues to hit the cease bolt..you both have an issue with the restrict meeting r logic board..verify the limit meeting first tho..hope this helps..Joe

Cliff

Good day…

I hav the liftmaster (chamberlain) professiona 41A5021-1H-315 and i cant use it anymore.

First it can simply have clicking noise and u will see solely 5 flashing lights, then the holder for the storage door hit the bolt that stopping it. Its so tight and that i cant move it or do anything.

What im doing now could be simply manually decrease garage door.

What do you suppose is the problem and how can i restore it?

Thanks and god bless…

Godsgirl..did this remote work on this door access control installation previously?

Godsgirl

Hello, First off thank you for this site, you’re very variety. I’ve Overhead Door Legacy garage door opener and a remote that doesn’t say what model it’s. I adopted your instructions and held the button in on the remote, it only stayed lit for about 10 seconds while it was blinking I hit the learn button on the Legacy and it blinked for about 25 seconds however nothing. Any solutions?

Steve will probably be on the machine where all the wires are coming in..take a look at the image at the highest right here and the study button is the pink square button..what kind of machine do you could have?

steve connolly

I cant get my Clicker keyless entry to work. I enter the passcose,, and i D AND IT ASK ME TO HIT THE Good / Be taught button which i simply cannot appear to seek out anywhere …any ideas ???

Desperate..strive unplugging the machine..wait about 15 seconds after which plug it again in. Erase the board again, and try to reprogram..if it wont accept the remotes…you’ve a foul logic board..maybe a energy surge or lightening strike

wmtancre..i’m sorry i’m not accustomed to that machine,,never heard of it

Desperate

Each my automotive storage opener and my hand held opener stopped working at the identical time. I programmed them both earlier than with ease and now after they both stopped working no matter what I do they don’t seem to be working. What should I do?

wmtancre

I’ve a Merik Safety Plus 511M-FS2 1/2hp storage door opener. I need to program a new distant however the problem is that there is no such thing as a be taught button. The only button on the back of the opener says “Erase”. The remote that got here with the opener is a “973-315MK”. I reside in Playa del Carmen, Mexico and that i purchased the only remote available he which is a “950-315CB” Will this remote work? The best way to I program and not using a “study button” Thanks on your help. Neil

I get lucky generally lol..Glad it worked out for ya!

Programmed the keypad exactly the way in which you stated. Perfecto! Purchased a brand new opener for my car and it is working, too. Yay!

San Antonio…you could have the latest frequency logic board out there. The distant yon need is the 371LM. I think the remote you might be using now is for the purple button logic board..Im not conversant in craftsman codes. Examine with a sears close by..sorry

San Antonio… to program the keypad.. press and release the square leanr button in your machine..then walk over to the keypad push the four digit number you want and press and hold the enter button on the kepyad..you will notice the sunshine bulb on the machine turn on and then go off,,,its performed!

I also seem to have de-programmed the wall-mounted keypad that is on the outside of the garage, by way of all my punching of the learn button. I hope you could have some concepts to assist me…thanks a lot!

San Antonio

I have an previous Sears Craftsman 1/2 horse opener. It has a purple be taught button, with a yellow gentle that comes on whenever you push the learn button. I’ve a grey craftsman 315 controller, with one black button. I tried to push the learn button for 20 seconds to clear, then push my black button and the be taught button again. No click…and it does not work to manage the door. Are you able to assist me? Thanks!

Brandon, the stanley remotes won’t work on the craftsman opener..completely completely 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 method I could program those remotes to work with the garsge opener? Thanks!

Micheal if the smart button is crimson..you need to make use of the 971,,,if its green..you utilize the 81lm..a new logic board is about 90.00..so a distant is a cheaper fix..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 sensible learning remotes on the market which might be universal to all modules? we are solely renting the property and don’t wish to spend to a lot with a view to have two remotes,logic board sounds expensive.

– Michael

Micheal..Sure the 971lm is for the purple smart button. Im shocked the 61lm is working in any respect on that machine. If you have issues programming both the 971lms..you may have an issue with the logic board…..Joe

Michael

Hello Sweeps,

We now have simply moved into our new house and only recieved on distant for our elevate master unit. After following the steps on the web I bought the 971LM resulting from the truth that I had Purple programming button on the unit, in saying that the original distant was a 81LM (in line with the sticker on the again) I’m now having difficulties programming both remotes, I can get them to work one at a time but not collectively, is that this a frequency subject? should I’ve each remotes with the same model quantity? I think it was unusual that the 81LM was capable of work with the crimson programming button, the place the remote must be for the green button.

Hi What color is the be taught button in your machine red, green or purple?

chrispy

Hey Sweeps. I have been going loopy trying to syn my wireless keypad to my opener. I can never get the learn gentle to blink. My keypad# is 139.18795 and my opener is a Craftsman 139.1847D. Any ideas?? Thx

Jason, i hate to say this but you have a foul logic board. For those who replace the board you might be about half of the cost of a new machine…You need to just substitute the unit. Sorry but oneremote is all you’ll get it to program..Joe

Jason

I’ve tried all of the tactics I might find all over on-line. I have 2 remotes one stopped working when i washed it. Additionally I’ve 2 model new remotes. All are 64LM remotes. I can not get the new remotes to program in any respect. I did set the 9 dip switches. On my 2 existing remotes, I did get the washed one to program once more. However no mater what procedure I try I can solely get one remote to program to the door. I wiped the opener clear by urgent button for six seconds. All remotes have been cleared. I then held transmitter, noticed led in opener blinking, hit study button for 1 second. That one works. When i add the second remote in the same method door open or door closed it’ll erase the primary distant. So no mater what the one distant that works is the last one programed. I’ve 2 doorways and it is similar on both. I am at the point of buying new models. These are somewhat older but I consider they’re more current than the 1997 that everyone refers to.

Kewon..no sorry they wont work with one another..Each have completely different frequencys..if it has a crimson square button..it uses a 971LM remote..the new machines have a purple sq. button and it uses a 371LM

kewon

Hey Joe is it possible to program outdated remotes to a newer opener? I tried to program without any success the weird thing is that after programming the old one, once i strive to use it the light blinks as if its getting the signal however the door does not transfer…

Sam..no sorry..it has to make use of the 315 mhz distant.
