(Programming the NEW Keypad made the car remotes not work, and visa versa). I bought a NEW Key Pad, but the new Key Pad and the OLD car remotes would not both work together.

Thanks to duda800-deals_yahoo! Your advice was the answer to my garage door problem! To summarize, For a 1997 era Chamberlain garage door opener, the OLD wireless Keypad quit working. I hope this will help you with your problem. wireless keypad would work but not the remotes) would not even be recognized by the opener in this procedure (LED would not blink), but it did work once I hit option 4. Options 1 through 3 (mind you, options #2 was the exact match for my garage door opener model but it would cause the problem discussed here e.g. Then, go ahead and program your wireless keypad, but you may have to go through the process several times by trying the different options until you find one that works!įor me, I had to try 4 options before making it work. Here's what you do: start by pairing / programming your older remote first after erasing all codes / programs. So how can you chose the option that will match your remote?

If you are programming your wireless keypad first after erasing all codes / programming, if you chose the "recommended" option for garage opener, chances are it will be rolling code and that means you won't be able to program your older remotes (billion code) after that. Each choice is associated with a technology in the background (e.g. 1 for models built after 1995, 2 for models built between 19, etc).

clicker from chamberlain), you have an option to select the type of opener you are using as you do the initial password set up (normally indicated by a number e.g. led won't blink when trying to pair/program).Īnd vice versa if you start with your remote after erasing all programming (then your keyless pad won't work).īut here is a potential workaround! For newer wireless keypads (e.g. If your remote(s) are older (billion code technology) then the opener won't even recognize the signal (e.g. Example: if your first pairing/programming was with the wireless keypad, and if it was rolling code technology (normally the case for newer models), then the garage opener will only recognize and accept rolling code for subsequent pairings.

Then when you follow the manufacturer's procedure to pair again (which could be the wireless key pad first OR the remote first), the first pairing determines the technology for all subsequent pairings.

6 seconds or more), you erase all codes and remote "pairings". When you reset all codes (normally by pressing a button on the opener for a period of time e.g. I had the same issue recently and here's what I found out (through a LOT of research) and the solution (yes, there is one!):Īs described by many, when you can't get both the remote and the wireless pad to work together it means your garage door opener can accept both rolling code and billing code technology, BUT not at the same time.
