LiftMaster Garage Door Opener Universal Remote - Genie Dip Switch Programming

[@sandycook8130]

I have a stanley opener, and purchased a universal remote SM24. Your tip of pressing the button several times was the trick that finally got my remote to program. Thanks

Thank you so much! Garage door older than me haha. Couldnt get the opener to work to save my life. This will be so much better for my bike than riding in the back to open the back door then opening garage door, just to ride around go park inside.

The remote in this video and the remote on Amazon link don't look the same. Does the remote on Amazon have dip switch ?

[@braxtonbowers4154]

Couldn’t figure it out until you mentioned you have to press it a bunch of times in program mode thank you so much!

It's confusing and a lot of times people give up. Glad the video helped you out!

You have answered the question I have been searching for all day. I only have 10 dip switches on garage but 12 in the remote. Now I know to leave the 11 and 12 off! Thank you!

[@quynhleba89]

Your video is great! to the point and easy to follow. Unfortunately, my old Genie model is a little bit different from the one in your video and I was not able to follow some of your later steps and not yet able to fix mine. My model is 409. The receiver and remote both have 10 dip switches. However, the remote doesn't have the black button nor the indicator light. Would you please make a video or guide on how to set-up remote control system for the Genie Model 409? Thanks

[@garagedoorgenius]

If your receiver and remote still work, all you have to do is match the numbers. The reason your remote doesn't have the little black button is because it's not a universal remote.

[@dovileamer3688]

Do you think same system will work with lift a door dip switch? Thanks

[@garagedoorgenius]

Yes! 🙏

[@scottdarroch9003]

Is it possible to program a Chamberlin key pad to at steel craft door opener that doesn't have a learn button it has dip switches but I don't see any on the key pad?

[@garagedoorgenius]

Not sure if a steel craft is compatible with Chamberlain LiftMaster universal keypad. However, check out this video. It might help you with the programming process. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fp_NoYihj899fMUsi=pEpWwEc6IpfXsoUZ

[@Drew1734]

So could this work just the same for other openers? My old overhead door opener is dip switch. But couldn’t I just get any aftermarket dip switch remote like this and it still be compatible with my overhead door model even being a chamberlain or what have you?

[@garagedoorgenius]

Yes absolutely! If you have the existing remote that came with the opener then you can just change the code on it. Or if you want to buy an aftermarket you can look at a genie 9-12 remote. My thoughts on the Chamberlain universal. The day that comes when you have to replace the garage door opener you can still use the universal remote for that new machine. So it's not like money wasted. Versus if you buy an aftermarket remote to match the current garage door opener it's not going to work with a newer machine.

[@Drew1734]

[@Mr.Quinlan888]

I own several condo units that have a Genie Gate opener and ONLY functions on remotes with dip switches. Chamberlain phase out the remotes with dip switches to cut costs, so had to go on eBay to find remotes for my tenants.

[@garagedoorgenius]

You can't find the Universal Remotes ? They have dip switches still.

[@Mr.Quinlan888]

@@garagedoorgenius - I ordered several of the older Chamberlain Universal remotes (KLIK3U) due to the new ones (KLIK5U) no longer using dip switches. I opened the cover on the older models and low and behold the dip switches are missing, just a blank area where the switch should be. I returned them. Same thing with the ones i got from my local Homes Depot and Lowes. Dip switch not on the circuit board. Found a generic brand out of New Jersey that sells a model similar to the old Clicker KLIK1U models.

Alright I got a question about one in my collection. It’s a chamberlain and the old board had 8 dip switches and the wires red, white, black, yellow. I got a new board that has 7 switches and has wires red, yellow, black, orange and it dosent work. Opener works too. Bad board or wrong board?
