Tutorial: Adding new remotes to your garage door opener

Look on the back of your garage door opener (flip down the light shade) and you will see a square button on the back.

Before YT I would have had to call someone to replace my garage door openers. Amazing how much I have learned to do myself thanks to helpful vids like this. Thank you!

Thank you! The instructions on the machine say to press and hold the button on the machine and remote until the machine lights start flashing, which does not work. Turning on the machine and clicking quickly once, as you demonstrated, worked! Thanks again!

Thanks for discussing the difference between already having a remote programmed and adding an additional remote without wiping the connection with the original remotes

Perfect information! Glad I saw your video and followed your simple advice to add a third remote unit rather than reprogramming both my existing remotes and keypad. A five-minute job the way you taught this. Thank you immensely!

THANK YOU!! I spent an hour following the instructions from Amazon and couldn’t program both! I watched your video and pgrammed 3 remotes in a few seconds!! Thanks!!

Could not figure out how to connect 2 remotes until this video. Thank you so much bro!! You’re a life saver!!

the best video to explain how to program second garage remote control thanks a lot for this video

[brendafinchum]

Thank you!!! We have two remotes and all the other videos don’t clarify how to program an additional one!!!

Thanks pal! Just got a spare garage remote to keep for myself 😁

[kathyfoster]

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!! I was getting ready to send these new remotes back to Amazon! Not now... thanks to YOU!

So many videos don’t discuss adding a universal remote to an existing remote. Thanks for the simple explanation. I was about to lose it before seeing your video….lol

Thanks, very fast and simple programming. Only 2 buttons!

So helpful. Literally just programmed my garage door remote to my opener. 🎉thank you

Thank you!!! I've never had a garage before & trying to learn all the stuff about the door. This is super helpful ❤

thank you for the video!
i have 2 remotes for my garage door.
1 has stopped working due to use. (Have to mash the button like 10 times for it to work)
1 works perfectly (the one i keep in the car).
After watching this video, i think ill just buy a new remote and program it.

Thank you so much for this video, just wanted to add, make sure you program your controller with the correct button color on the motor. I was trying to add another and because of this It wasn’t working

[tommyvaneimeren]

Great instructions for additional. I kept wiping out the previous... Thanks!😊

[juangooseman]

Really appreciate the contribution this would have been a hassle to figure out myself thanks for the video

[jaybrown]

Thank you very much I’ll give two thumbs up.

great quick video; perfect. Needed to reprogram remotes after I falied at setting up a useless keypad. But at least redoing this part was easy.
