Hoist Remote Not Working? | Lift Boss Remote Pairing Tutorial

[@skwira000]

I’m in year 2 of the new generation with wireless remote. Last year everything worked fine. This year the key works, but the remote will make it go up or down when pressed for about a second and quit. I already replaced the battery and repaired and it’s doing the same thing. I wonder if I can just get the corded switch. Mine has an SEA connector on the bottom. Im not sure if that’s what the corded switch plugs into.

I have the same issue, were you ever able to figure out what the issue was?

@@robosed I got a new remote. Next time test it out with the key first to see if the battery is good at season beginning.

@@jamestutton1076 I was able to get a new remote under warranty, it works fine, but for how long I guess is the next question since the motor/remote is only a little over a year old.

I have a Gen 4 and the "up" does not work on the remote. Works fine with the key. I have tried with both remotes that I own. The "down" works fine. The "Up" doesn't work on either remote. Only with the key. My Gen4 Unit is only 2 years old. Any suggestions!?!? I have reset the unit and re-paired each remote several times. "Up" still does not work on the remotes

We would recommend getting a new remote that did not come with the motor. However, there could be a problem with the receiver on the motor itself. If the motor is within 2 years old, you may have a warranty on the motor!

@@brinsonmarine Thanks so much for the reply! Unfortunately my unit is 2 years, 8 months old. I hear a click inside the unit when I release the up button on the remote, so I think it's an issue with the receiver relay on the motor. :( Not sure how I am going to remove it and ship it to Lift Boss for repair. I'm sure the shipping is going to be a fortune.

@@markdanon1172 You could also try contacting Extreme Max (who makes the Lift Boss) to see if they have any suggestions for you. They do offer repair services but like you said, you'd have to mail the unit in to them.

@@brinsonmarine Thanks so much. You guys are awesome! Love your videos! I've got the installer (in GA) coming out next week to replace the sensor module for the remote inside the motor unit. Hopefully Extreme Max will cover it under warranty. It's a few months past the 2 year warranty.

Searched this video because the key operates the motor fine but the remote only works in 1 second bursts. Tried reprogramming per this videos instructions but still unable to switch remote it to fully auto. New battery in the remote didn’t help either.
