Once you have cleared the existing programming, you can enter programming mode on your MyQ garage door opener. Press and release the “Learn” button on the motor unit. The LED light beside the button will turn on and remain steady, indicating that the opener is in programming mode.
Step 3: Program the Remote Control
To program the remote control for your MyQ garage door opener, press and release the desired button on the remote control. The LED light on the motor unit will flash, indicating that the remote control has been successfully programmed. Repeat this step for each remote control you want to program.
Step 4: Program the Keypad (if applicable)
If your MyQ garage door opener has a keypad, you can also program it during the reprogramming process. To do this, enter your desired PIN on the keypad and press the “Enter” or “Learn” button. The LED light on the motor unit will flash, indicating that the keypad has been successfully programmed.
Step 5: Test the Reprogrammed Opener
After completing the programming steps, it is essential to test the reprogrammed MyQ garage door opener to ensure it is functioning correctly. Stand within the range of the opener and press the programmed button on the remote control or enter the PIN on the keypad (if applicable). The garage door should open or close in response to the command. If the door does not respond, double-check the programming steps and repeat them if necessary.
