Question:
I replaced the batteries to the garage door opener remote and it still
won't work. I opened the craftsman unit and found the dip switches.
They are numbered 1-9.
On my remote they are numbered 2-9.
How does this work? Was I given a faulty remote?
Answer:
The dip switch difference is fine. What you need to do is find the button on
the door opener that syncs with the remote. Find that button and then press
it let it go and then press the remote button that should get the two to see
each other and work.
Your transmitter is a multi-button remote & the #1 switch on the
receiver determines which button on the transmitter operates the door.
So switches 2-9 should be set the same on both. One button would be
"+" on #1 on the receiver, the 2nd button would be "0" and the 3rd
button would be "-".
