How to Reset a Liftmaster Garage Door Opener - Method 3

Linking a New Garage Door Opener
-
1. Pull off the bulb cover to expose the motor unit’s control panel. Pry off the bulb cover that covers up the unit’s safety warnings and control panel. If your bulb unit has release tabs on the top right and left corners, press those and then pull down on the bulb panel.[6]- Different models of Liftmaster motor units may have the control panel on the back, left, or right.

2. Press the “Learn” button until the LED light comes on. The “Learn” button should be in the top-right corner of the motor unit’s small control panel. Press it down 1 time and don’t hold it. You’ll see a small LED light illuminate. This lets you know that the motor unit is ready to receive a radio signal from the remote unit.[7]- If you have large fingers and can’t push the small “Learn” button, press it with the tip of a pen instead.

3. Hold down a button on your remote garage door opener. Within 30 seconds of pressing the “Learn” button, press down on a button on the remote. This will send out a radio signal to the ceiling-mounted motor unit. In the future, when the unit receives that specific signal, it will open the garage door it’s attached to.[8]- On most Liftmaster units, the light attached to the motor unit will light up for 1/2 a second to indicate that the remote’s button has been linked.

4. Repeat the process with any additional garage doors. Most remote controls have 2 or 3 buttons on them and can be linked to 2 or 3 garage doors. To link another garage-door motor to your remote, move your ladder over to a second or third ceiling-mounted garage door opener. Remove its bulb cover. Press down on the “Learn” button until the LED lights up. Then press the button on the remote control that you’d like to open that door.- Be careful not to press a button that you’ve already linked to another garage door! If you do, pressing the button will open both doors.
