We are getting new renters in a property that we own and so I recently needed to reset the code on the garage door opener. For many of you, this is a no-brainer – but for me – it takes all my brain. After I researched how to do it – changing the code is really quite easy. Follow these steps and you’ll have ‘er changed in no time. Most garage door openers work in the following manner. If yours looks a lot different, I would recommend you consult your manual or check the back of your garage door opener. There should be directions there. Our garage door opener has a keypad and a remote. Having both makes things convenient if we happen to leave the house and forget the remote or your keys. First things first – make sure your batteries are working in both the remote and the keypad. Most keypads will take a 9V battery, while the remote will take a small round battery labeled 2032 (of course, yours may be different). Next, check out the back of the opener that is attached to the ceiling of your garage.
You’ll likely see something similar to figure 2. You’ll want to check for the “learn button” or something that looks like a button. These are typically blue or red. When you find it, hold it down for about 6 seconds to reset the opener. Typically, a light next to the button will go out OR your lights attached to the opener will start to flicker. Everything should be reset and none of your remotes or keypad should be working at this point. Now to set the code – hit the “learn button” again so that the little light next to it lights up. You’ll have about 30 seconds or so to enter a new code on your keypad. Make sure it’s something you won’t forget! When you enter the new code, the light attached to the garage door opener will go on and off. The code is now set. Next, you’ll want to make sure your remote is synced up to the new code. All you need to do now is to hold up your remote to the back of the garage door opener, and press down (and hold) on your remote and then press the “learn button”.
Let go of the remote button AND the “learn button” at the same time. Make sure it took – and hit the remote. It should now open up the garage door.If these steps didn’t take care of it – do make sure you consult the back of your opener as the directions could vary from device to device. After changing your garage door code, you may want to change your phone plan.

Be the first to like this Reprogramming a Toyota Sienna Garage Door Opener with a If you have existing codes loaded into your Sienna's garage door console that need to be erased, you need to hold down the first and third buttons for about 20 seconds until the indicator light flashes. At this time, I pressed the third button and was able to clear the memory. Enter the program mode on the new remote by pressing the small button on the back until the red
light (on the front) turns on and remains steady. Press the "learn" button on the overhead unit. Within 30 seconds, press the button on the clicker that you are trying to program for 2 seconds. case I ever need to do this again, or on the off chance there are others in cyberspace with the same problem, here is the solution: Last week, one of the 3 garage door buttons in our 2008 Toyota Sienna broke. You will need a new clicker to synch with the overhead unit, which can then be used to reprogram your van. time, the garage door will open. Congratulate yourself - you are done! I am almost embarrassed to admit this, but it has taken me several hours and 2 trips to Home Depot to reprogram a different button so that it works with our LiftMaster (aka Chamberlain) garage doorThe van is now 'primed' to accept the signal from the LiftMaster. Within 30 seconds, press the button in the van TWICE for about 2 seconds each time. In my case, I
was able to play with the broken button to find when it gave off a signal. The button snapped while being pressed and is now floating in the socket. Apparently, these will only work for garage door openers that were manufactured before 2003. The cost of repairing the broken button is around $500 - hardly worth fixing. Buy a New Garage Remote Control Unfortunately, the Sienna can't be synched directly with the LiftMaster. DON'T buy a remote that I purchased the model shown below from Home Depot, and am now realizing that the Amazon version was $15 less at the time that I write this.. At this point, you can release both buttons. outset, I didn't recognize that this was a 2 step process. Purchase a clicker that is compatible with Chamberlain. The first time, you will see the lights flash on the overhead unit. This turned out to be a huge time suck. Repeat until the light on the overhead Once that happens, your remote is programmed.
