Take a deep breath. Now say to yourself, "I'm OK!" Replacing a garage door opener remote control is a common issue and programming an Intellicode remote control is easy. Please look at one of the scenarios below for the best solution for your situation:
My Remote Control was lost or stolen
I purchased an additional remote control and just need to program it to my opener.
1. My Remote Control was lost or stolen:
If your remote control has been lost or stolen, a person will have unabated access to your garage. You should erase all existing remote controls out of your receiver.
STEP 1: To erase all controls:
Press and hold the learn code button until the red LED stops blinking. This process will take approximately 10 seconds. This will render all remote controls and your optional external wireless keypad inoperative.
STEP 2: To reprogram your new and/or existing remote controls:
Press and release the learn code button on the receiver, while the red LED is blinking, press your transmitter button 3 times. This will lock in a new code and you will be able to use your remote controls normally. Repeat this process for each additional remote control you have.
To reprogram your existing Intellicode Wireless Keypad. Press and release the learn code button on the receiver, while the red LED is blinking, open the cover on your wireless keypad, press the same personal pin number that you originally programmed and press the SEND button 3 times. This will allow you to use your keypad normally.
2. I purchased an additional Remote Control:
If you have simply purchased an additional remote control and wish to program it and not delete any other device.
To program your new remote controls:
Simply, press and release the learn code button on the receiver, while the red LED is blinking, press your transmitter button 3 times. This will lock in a new code and you will be able to use your remote control normally. Repeat this process for each additional remote you have.
