I have recently moved and took my Chamberlain keypad with me. My new home has a Craftsman garage door opener and I'm trying to program my keypad but the door will not lift after pressing the learn button and entering the code.

I bought a new keypad and 2 VISOR remote (30498). As to programming garage door opener, I did like here:
programming garage door opener
- it tooks me 20 minutes and works great

It is a different radio frequency and will not work. A new keypad will work.

If your opener doesn't have safety sensors in the doorway this keypad will not work with it.

Hi, The opener, remotes and keypads have a set of dip switches that you can use to change the code. You will find the switches when you open the remotes and keypad and are in the back cover ( depending on the model) of the opener itself. Make sure that the codes of all the switches are set exactly the same. If you need additional help let me know! Good Luck.

The radio frequency has changed and the old keypad will not work with the new opener.

You need to reprogram. Press and release the Learn button and within 20 seconds type in 4 digit code and press and hold enter. The light on the opener should flash once or click if you have no light bulb. This should solve your problem

after wiping out codes by pushing LEARN button for 3 seconds or more, push for 1 second to add keypad back. Then press again 1 second for each remote.

THE FREQUENCY OF THE UNITS ARE PROBABLY NOT COMPATABLE THEY CHANGED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO.

SORRY - I THINK YOU NEED A NEW KEYPAD TO GO WITH THE NEW OPENER.

Hello,Linda well this is your lucky day ,I have installed garage door openers for sears for 10 years and i can tell you that craftsman,chamberlain ,and liftmaster are all the same machine and manufactured under the liftmaster name , if you buy it from home depot it will be a chamberlain ,if you buy it at sears ,it will be a craftsman, and if you go to commercial building supplier it will be a liftmaster! now getting that out of the way even though they are all compatible ,there is one thing that stands in their way and that,s time ,For example if your chamberlain machine is 5 years old and you went to sears last week ,the chances of the frequency being the same are not good , most likely you have the wireless keypad , one way to test the sears keypad against the chamberlain machine is to locate the smart button on your machine ,this button allows for programming of remotes and keypads , to test and see exactly what im talking about take your remote and locate the smart button ,if you have three buttons on the remote press one of the buttons that are not being used on the remote ,above the smart button their will be a blinking light ,if you press your remote button you will notice the light go from a blink to a rapid flash , This is telling you that you are sending a signal for programming to the machine , well the keypad is exactly the same all you have to do is push the enter button on the keypad and have someone watch for the rapid blinking light ,if they are compatible the light will blink rapidly on the machine so all you have to do now is have someone press the smart button once on the machine your indicator light will now be a solid light you will have approx 60 seconds then to put a 4 digit code in the keypad and then press and hold down the enter button on the keypad , at this point you will notice the lightbulbs on the chamberlain machine to shut off and come back on this is to tell you that the machine accepted the code , after thats been done you can use your keypad , you can also find the owners manual to the chamberlain and follow the same instructions to programming the remote , they are identical in programing , if your keypad is not the same frequency you can also tell by looking at the frequency code on the backside of the keypad and also the chamberlain unit usually where the light bulb is will be its code

The keypad outside has manuals online that you could use, but for simplicity, Have someone go to that back of the machine and press the "Learn" button, once its is pressed, the yellow light should blink. Enter a new code (4digit) into the keypad and press the enter button. You should then hear a click and the lights on the machine should flash. That will program your keypad.
