How to program a universal Garage Door Remote
Many have wondered how to program their universal remotes into their garage door opener. It is really a simple procedure with just a few basic steps. You can have that universal remote working on your garage door in no time! Let me explain.
First, you will notice that your universal remote can be opened. Just open the cover of the remote and inside will be a button that is used for programming.
You will want to press and hold down the program button inside the remote until the light on the remote control comes on. This is letting you know that your remote control is now in programming mode.
Next, you will need to access your motor located at the top of garage ceiling. Each garage door motor or opener has what they call a learn button. It is usually located at the back of the motor and may or may not be behind a cover that may need removed. Learn buttons can be purple, red, orange, or other colors depending on the make and model of your opener.
Once you have located the learn button, you will need to press it once. Do not hold it down. You are now actively putting the motor unit in programming mode.
Decide on the remote control which of the two buttons you would like to use to open and close your garage door. Either one is fine. Press and hold that button for two seconds and release. Then press and hold it again for two seconds and release. Repeat this step until you see on the opener (motor) light flash at the ceiling. This has let you know that the motor has accepted the remote control.
Once the light has flashed, you may now take the remote control out of programming mode. To do this, just press the program button inside the remote control again to exit this mode. Replace the cover.
Now you are ready to test your remote. Your remote should now be ready to work with your opener and your garage door should open and close!
