Step 1: Locate the programming button on your garage door opener.
The programming button is typically located on the side of the garage door opener unit. It may be labeled “Learn,” “Program,” or “Programming.” Take note of its location for the next steps.
Step 2: Position your remote control.
Hold your Liftmaster remote control within a few inches of the garage door opener unit. Make sure the remote is in a stable position and that you can easily press the buttons.
Step 3: Press and hold the programming button on the garage door opener.
Press and hold the programming button on the garage door opener unit. You should see a light indicator or hear a beep, indicating that the opener is ready to learn a new code.
Step 4: Press the button on your remote control.
While still holding the programming button on the garage door opener, press the button on your remote control that you want to program. The garage door opener will send a signal to the remote, and you should see the light indicator or hear a beep to confirm that the remote has been programmed successfully.
Step 5: Release the programming button on the garage door opener.
Once you’ve confirmed that the remote has been programmed, release the programming button on the garage door opener unit.
Step 6: Test the remote control.
Press the button on your remote control that you programmed. If the garage door opens or closes as expected, you have successfully programmed your Liftmaster remote. If not, repeat the programming process, ensuring that you press the buttons correctly and in the right sequence.
