In this video I troubleshoot a lift master garage door opener. Isolate the problem and repair it. Finally I show how to program to your other house remotes and a 2013 Toyota Tundra/ 2017 Toyota 4Runner. Some learn buttons only require a long push and you do not have to hold it down.

Thank you so much for sharing your video. I lost one of my garage remote controller and got a new one an Amazon for only about $21. It wasn’t the original. By following your steps to program the 2 new remote controller worked right away. Your video teaching was a blessing in the sky. Keep up the good work and thank you KZfaq for giving others the opportunity to share and others to follow. By the anyone out there, if you are replacing a remote controller don’t buy the original, too expensive. I got it on Amazon for only about $21 and worked… Thank You…

Thanks! I was getting ready to replace my 7 year old Liftmaster 8500 when I found your video. Turns out my 888LM was faulty so I replaced with the new 889LM… bingo. Thanks again.

Good Job!!! I've been trying to program a third controller and ended up "Un-programming" my other two... Don't ask how. But I had the instruction from the garage door operator. did it several times per the letter.... nothing! just watch yours and thought I would give it a try. when I first went to my wall mount controller the red light wouldn't even come on... I thought I may have something more then just programming issue..... so I cycled the door one time from the wall mount and tried the learn button again....this time it came on and stayed on... got my other controllers and had all three done in about one minute.... thanks!

the wall controller supplied with older 8500 op have 2 caps inside that were suppose to be over 100,000 cycle caps , but failed after just a few years ....that's why they honor the warranty and send a 889 lm as a replacement.....good company

The instructions are pretty clear and easy. I installed mine, but the red+yellow won't stop blinking, and it's also accompanied by a beeping noise. Could the backup battery be at fault?

If a red light above my learn button is blinking red intermittently on my wall mounted door control and making some intermittent buzz noises, what does that mean? I can detach the door control from the wall and disconnect the wires. I can touch and hold the wires together and the door operates. So despite the obvious solution of replacing my door control, is it possible to rule out if the wires were just not wrapped around the screws well or sufficiently? I'm trying to rule out correcting the problem within the door control before just buying a new one for $45.00. Is there a button to hold to clear out memory or commands given?

@LabelSeven 3 жыл бұрын

Yes I would get a new control. By connecting wires your overriding button, telling me that’s your issue.

You have a programming issue. Keep trying, adjust hold down times and go from there. If that doesn’t work make sure you bought compatible parts?

... holding the learn button for 10 seconds resets the wall controller. You need to push the learn button twice to get to the learn mode. ( no need to hold for 3 seconds)

Question: if someone were to break into your vehicles, could they just press those buttons and gain access into your garage? And how many ppl actually keep the interior door which leads from their garage into their home, Locked? Now the Bad Guys have entered your house.🤷🏻‍♂️😳

@LabelSeven 2 жыл бұрын

My garage isn’t connect - but we have key pads regardless. Yes though if they got into your car they could do that. Adopt a German shepherd, I have a video for that too -you’ll sleep better at night 😆. If you don’t want to do any of that and you’re scared of your shadow - take the extra 4 seconds to lock the interior door

@gabluebirdcam2373 6 ай бұрын

I know this video is a couple years old, but I thought I’d add this in case someone else had this question. I have the same Liftmaster wall switch, and one of the buttons on the switch is LOCK. If you push this button, all remotes are locked out until the LOCK button is pushed again and the LOCK light goes out. I hope this helps.

When you hold the "learn" button for a few seconds you actually just erased all old remotes. This is good if you lost a remote or acquired a new property with an 8500. To program remote only just press the learn do not hold it down unless you want to re program all remotes!
