FAQs – LiftMaster Remote Controls
Q: How do I program a LiftMaster remote?
A: Press and release the “Learn” button on your opener, then press the button on the remote until the opener light blinks. This confirms programming.
Q: How do I know which remote works with my opener?
A: Check your opener’s model number or the color of the “Learn” button. Older models use dip switch remotes, while newer units use Security+ remotes matched by learn button color (green, orange, or purple).

A: Yes, most universal remotes are compatible with LiftMaster, but always check that the remote supports your opener’s frequency and rolling code system.
