craftsmen garage door keypad problem I'm able to use my keypad to close my garage door but not able to open from keypad. I replaced the battery and checked the beam alignment, all looks fine. I can open and close with my remotes and at the wired wall mount. Any thoughts on this?I have the same problem. Remotes work fine, keypad closes the door but will not open. A coworker has the same issue. She has the craftsman and mine is the chamberlain but I believe its the same keypad used on both. We also have the same problem with our chamberlain. Did any of you get it figured out ? I am also having the exact same problem with mine now. I have a craftsman opener. Wont open with the keypad but it will close with it, and all other remotes and wall mount work fine. Has anybody been able to get theirs figured out? I have the SAME problem! Keypad won't open door, but will close it. Remotes work fine--both open and close door. What is going on!?!? I apologize for not remembering completely how I fixed mine.
I think it was a matter of reprogramming the keypad while the garage door was up or down. I don't remember exactly but I think that fixed it. If I remember correctly its like you get stuck halfway in a cycle and can only go up or down depending where your at in the cycle. Check other forums if this doesn't help. I found the answer somewhere. Open the garage door. Press the 'learn' button on the opener (for less than 10 seconds). Enter 1-6 digits on the keypad, then press enter (light on opener should blink). Test it and all remotes to ensure they didn't get erased from memory. Yep this did the trick as I had the same issue; would lower but not raise. I guess over time the programming is lost. we had the same problem .... was easy to fix !!! open the light lens on the left (looking into the garage) press the learn button (red)...,., key in security number and hold enter button til light lights up .. Hello, what kind of battery does your key pad take?

I don't how to remove the battery I can't find where it I located on the pad Remove the Phillips screw on the battery access cover (lower front). Slide the cover down to remove. Pull the battery (9V) straight out and disconnect. The cord is short and you need to pull the connector off with authority. The reset works like a champ. Thank you for your response.

Go and press your keypad numbers on your keypad followed by Enter. I'm a senior citizen and did it by myself. Hardest part was getting the ladder up and down. Thank you so much! I'm locked out of the garage cause the keypad doesn't work. Now what do I do?
First, did you check the battery? Mine died and had to be replaced. The button on the wall works, why won't my wireless keyless entry work? Your garage door opener is equipped with an integrated receiver logic board that "talks" to your keyless entry wirelessly, whereas your wall-mounted door control panel is hard-wired. The wireless keyless entry and wired door control operate independently, so it is not uncommon for one device to work while the other does not. The most common cause of failure in a keyless entry is a depleted battery. If the battery has already been replaced the problem may be a failure with the keyless entry or the receiver logic board. Here are some possible causes for your keyless entry not to work or program: Issue with a button on the keypad A temporary PIN has expired (for doors that will close only, but not open from the keyless entry)Most of the keyless entries have a 9-volt battery. Some of the older ones use a 12-volt. Changing the battery in the keypad

A temporary PIN has expired A temporary PIN number will no longer open the door once it expires, however, it can still be used to close the door. Clear the memory and program the keyless entry.

Remove the keyless entry from the mounting surface and test the keyless entry.
