If the LED light on the garage door opener does not flash when you press the Learn button, check to make sure that the batteries in the remote control are fresh. You may also need to replace the batteries in the garage door opener.

If the LED light on the garage door opener flashes but does not stay lit when you press the button on the remote control, make sure that you are pressing the correct button. You may also need to try reprogramming the remote control.

If the remote controls are not working properly after you have programmed them, check to make sure that the garage door opener is properly installed. You may also need to adjust the travel limits on the garage door opener.
