Once the garage door opener is in learn mode, pick up the remote control you wish to program. Point it towards the opener unit and press the desired button on the remote that you want to use for opening/closing the garage door. The remote's LED indicator light will typically illuminate or flash as it transmits its unique code. The garage door opener's indicator light (from the previous step) should flash or change state, confirming that it has successfully learned the remote's code.
