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.

How to reset garage door opener pad without old acess number

A Stanley garage door keypad is wall-mounted, battery-operated device that allows you to open your home's garage door electronically without having to manually lift the door or use a pull chain. The keypad uses a four-digit access code that you program after the keypad is initially installed. You can change the code, disable the keypad manually by entering a invalid code and reset the keypad if the device is not working properly. After you reset your Stanley garage door keypad, the device is ready to accept a new access code.

Need to know how to reset keypad for garage door.

If you pressed and immediately released the smart/learn button and then walked over to the keypad and keyed in a 4 digit code and it doesn't work then the keypad is bad. The model number for the opener is on the door side of the motor unit and starts with 139.

Moved into home, no codes provided. How can I reset this

Instructions to reset the code should be on the back of your garage door opener. If they are not: press the learn button (colored button) on the back of opener. Yo will have 30 or so seconds to key in a new 4 digit security code. Enter your 4 number code then hold enter until light on operator flashes. When it does, it has learned your new code. If there are no lights on your opener you will hear a clicking sound. If this works please take the time to give me a rating. Thanks kc

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

Craftsman 1245LM reprogram

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.
