Access the wall-mounted control panel inside your garage, which typically has a 'learn' button. Press the 'learn' button once; it will emit a beep and its light will start blinking. Immediately press the 'learn' button a second time. The light will now flash differently, indicating that the system is ready to learn a new remote control. While the light is flashing, press the large, main button on your LiftMaster garage door remote. The garage door opener's light (on the main unit above the door) will flash once, confirming that the remote button has been successfully programmed to operate this specific door. Test the remote to ensure it functions correctly.
