We had two garage door opener remotes and lost one of them. Can we use this remote to replace the lost remote and still use the remote we still have?

Yes you can, just program it as you would any other remote. It won't interfere with the one you currently try have. I set up two using the same button and have no issues. It also allows you to set a button to turn on and off the lights if you have lights set up.

Yes this will work on any Liftmaster unit made after 1993 and will work in conjunction with any existing remotes

I don't know how old your garage door opener is? Whether the frequency is the same as this remote. I know that I use this remote on my old unit and it worked fine. You have to set the pins on this remote in the same sequence as programmed on the garage unit. You have to compare whether your unit has 10 pins or 12 pins, etc. It should work....the only question is the frequency.

in the manual it says you can program the remote for more than one opener however the instruction is not very clear for the average joe or at least me i should say...hope this helps

You should be able to replace the remote. However the key also contains a chip. If the key still works then the chip inside the key is ok. You should switch the key in the broken remote with the key in the working remote if your not sure the key works. To wum it up make sure the key is still working, if it is yes you should be able to replace just the remote.

Hi, You will need to get a part number for the remote and match it up since you do not have an original!

Hey Marc- This wouldn't be the correct remote for you. Do you have a working remote for your opener? Thanks... Matty

I have two remotes and two openers, each remote opens both doors. I would imagine that you could program as many remotes that you would need.

It should work. I have a garage opener that is more than 20 years old and the remote was lost. I bought a new receiver and remote from Liftmanster and replaced it and now it is working great. Good luck

You are training the remotes to the garage door opener frequency so you can use as many as you like. If you reset the garage door opener to a new frequency then you will need to go through and re-train all the openers to the new frequency.

I replaced a craftsman remote . I do not have my garage door opener model # with me. but it was installed when my house was built in 1998.

We just recently had a new garage door installed. They installed a craftsman opener. When I was looking for a spare remote I read that this one works with craftsman opener so I took the chance and ordered it. This remote worked for me with my new opener. Good Luck!

No you don't need the old remote. When you program the new remote, any remote that is not reprogrammed at the same time will cease to function. This means that once you program the new remote the old one will no longer be a security problem.

I don't know if it will replace a previous remote. Need to call an expert. But the instructions are included. However, I did have to make a call to Genie and they talked me through it and it works perfectly. Note: while there are 3 buttons on this remote, the only one we could get to work was the one on the RIGHT. We could never get the left nor middle button to perform. We only need one so we were happy.

Sorry, I don't know if this will work for your door opener. Mine is a Genie so it works with it, but it isn't a universal remote.

I have no idea how to replace a lost remote, but I need another remote also. I dropped mine and now I can't recharge it because the internal plug broke loose. If you find out how to get another remote let me know.

Sorry, I lost mine too! It works well with a number of universal remotes that are available.

There is a reset button on the opener that kills all programmed remotes. You need to do this right away if your remote was stolen. After resetting it you will have to re-sync all remote openers to your unit, (keypad, key fob, visor unit, etc.). You don't need to buy this key fob to cancel all the remotes you have programmed into your opener. Merely reset the opener. However if your key fob was stolen you undoubtedly will need a new one and I would recommend this one. The only problem I have had with it sometimes in my pocket when at home it can open randomly. Too much stuff in my pocket! You should find instruction for your model opener here: http://www.geniecompany.com/
