have purchased a digi code opener and when I put the "buttons"in place, just like the other remote, it does not work. How do I find out which of the 1042 codes work?

I purchased digi code 1/300 MHz multi code opener (DC 5010) to open gate (gated community). At first it did not work when I selected the various combinations on the switches on the back, and I found the battery was not connected properly so I removed it and replaced it and it works fine now.

If you didn't have one that would already open the door, you can take the make and model of your door opener, and search it on line and find the digi coder you need. Then pull the cover off the door opener and set the switches in the divi coder the same as the switches in the door opener.

You have to open the remote control. Remove the cover with a coin. The "Dip" switches my correspond with what you are trying to open, ie gate, garage, etc. Open the cover of the gate or garage and see the position of its switches. Usually its a 4 digit code, ie 3579. In this instance the DIP switches for the numbers 3579 should be ON and the other DIP switches off. Use a paper clip point to flip the switches

I found that orientation of the buttons was upside down from my old remote. Once I changed it, it worked

If you set all the buttons to exactly match an opener which works, It seems to me there could only be two causes; 1/ The opener is the wrong model for your equipment, or; 2/ The opener is defective. Not all "universal" openers work with all garage door controls. You may have to call the opener company who made your garage door opener to get more information. But first, I would double- and triple-check that ALL the switches are correct.

If the dip switches are the same as the original opener, then you have either a defective new opener or some other problem.Does the original opener still work? My guess is someone moved one or more dip switches. I'd start by resetting each dip switch to make sure it is fully seated in the correct position.

Hey Sandie, It won't work with that make of operator. If you let me know the color of your programing button on your opener I can have a solution for you. Thanks... Matty

From Genie site: Compatible with all Genie openers produced since 1995. I will tell you I had no issues setting it up to my old Genie opener I installed around 2001. So yes my remote was the larger Black one with single grey button ACSCTG Type 1. This one works fine but I have a wooden door with regular wooden garage connected to home. I tend to believe its weeker signal gets interupted by metal garage/doors. Its only about the size of a key fob witch is great but I must be within 70ft of my door to open it....Its small size makes it worth that to me.

Not enough information. Call Chamberlain support and be ready to give them model number of door opener and model number of any other remotes you have.

There are dip switches inside the remote that you have to set to the same code as your other remote, which is the same code that is set inside of the opener.

I connected remote to a garage door opener with a purple button. I do not see why it would not work but calling Chamberlin tech help(800.528.5880) assisted me with getting the right answers. Have the model/serial number of your garage opener handy when you call.

Mine did not work when I bought my house. A 2 wire Door Bell Push Buttonwill work to open and close it. In order to get the remores to work I needed to get a new Wall Mount Super Station so the new remotes I bought once programmed could be programmed to match the Door Opener.. Not expensive. I bought 2 remotes and 1 Super Station for approx $50 on line. Not a difficult task if you follow the instructions sent with the Super Station.

Check the color of your programming button. If the button color coincides with the color designated to the opener it works. That's the only way to know for sure. In my experience even the identical models can have varying frequencies in different model years.

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/

Best bet would be to Google the door and remote numbers and see what numbers come up. I've replaced at least two remotes through Amazon, one keypad and all of them when I held the learn button on the opener within 5 sec they were programmed.

Maybe you accidentally erased code previously setup for the other remote. You will probably have to reprogram it (the older remote). A very good short video showing and telling how to program it may be found at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aORPeq9j2MM

We moved to NC recently and the house had a Chamberlain garage door opener and the remote did not work. The previous owner did not leave any manuals. I ordered 2 remotes from amazon. It has 3 programmable buttons. We programmed each for our vehicles. works well.

The remote works with both Intellicode 1 (your remote) and Intellicode 2 and can control three different doors (one button each). So, if you get a new Genie door opener, it will work with that too. I just programmed all my buttons on mine to control my one door. That way I don't have to worry about hitting the wrong one.

Chamberlain model 953D / 953CD Compatible Remote Garage Door Opener is the only one that will work for the purple button opener. I spent hours researching this because I have the same one.

Yes this remote is compatible with your opener and you could also use the Digi-Code 5012that is also compatible.

I have used northshorecommercialdoor. com to purchase remotes and used their helpful Ask A Question and received info of which remotes will work on different openers. They have always got back to me in a timely manor. I suggest you try them as I believe they also sell on Amazon.com. http://www.northshorecommercialdoor.com/97ragadoop1r.html
