How to Reprogram Genie Garage Door Opener-Southern Home Garage Door Alpharetta

Reprogramming a Genie Garage Door Repair Alpharetta GA opener is a fairly straightforward process that can be completed with a few simple steps.

Follow the instructions below to successfully reprogram your Genie garage door opener:

  1. Locate the “Learn” button: The first step is to find the “Learn” button on your Genie garage door opener. This button is typically located on the motor unit, which is usually installed on the ceiling of your garage. The exact location of the button may vary depending on the model of your Genie opener.
  2. Clear existing codes: Before programming new codes, it’s important to clear any existing codes from the opener’s memory. Press and hold the “Learn” button for about 10 seconds until the indicator light on the motor unit blinks or turns off. This indicates that the previous codes have been successfully erased.
  3. Choose a remote control: Decide which remote control you want to use to operate your Genie garage door opener. If you already have a remote that you want to reprogram, make sure it’s in working condition and has fresh batteries. If you’re using a new remote, insert fresh batteries into it.
  4. Put the opener into programming mode: Press the “Learn” button on the motor unit once and release it. The indicator light will start blinking, indicating that the opener is ready to learn a new code.
  5. Program the remote control: Within 30 seconds of pressing the “Learn” button, press and hold the button on the remote control that you want to program. Keep holding the button until the indicator light on the motor unit blinks or turns off. This indicates that the code has been successfully programmed into the opener.
  6. Test the remote control: Press the button on the remote control to test if the garage door opener responds. The door should open or close depending on the button you press. If it doesn’t work, repeat steps 4 and 5 to ensure the code is properly programmed.
  7. Repeat for additional remotes: If you have more than one remote control to program, repeat steps 4 to 6 for each remote. The opener can usually store multiple codes, allowing you to operate the door from different remotes.
  8. Exit programming mode: Once you have programmed all the desired remotes, press the “Learn” button on the motor unit once again to exit programming mode. The indicator light should stop blinking, indicating that the opener is back to normal operation.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully reprogram your Genie Garage Door Repair Alpharetta GA opener and ensure that your remote controls are functioning correctly. Remember to consult the specific instructions provided with your Genie opener, as there might be slight variations depending on the model.
