I have a craftsman garage opener and my lock won't work

I have a craftsman garage opener and my lock button won't work. When pressed, you can still open the door with all remotes and with the keyless pad. The green button flashes but it still allows you to enter with all remotes. How can I fix this ?

The wireless keypad should work but the remotes should not. I suspect a bad wall control but there is a possibility of a bad logic board. If you have a neighbor with a 3 button wall control see if they will let you borrow it to eliminate that problem. Just make sure you note which wire goes where on the back of the control. They are color coded.

Craftsman GDO - Remotes not working

I think this is an easier way to program. Press and hold the button on the remote and then press and immediately release the smart/learn button on the rear of the motor unit. Do this for each remote you have.

Cant turn off lock button on craftsman control consol 53687

You need to hold the lock button for 3 seconds. If the green LED in the wall control is blinking off and on the door is locked. If holding the button in for 3 seconds doesn't work you can try programming your remotes. This sometimes works. Press and hold the button on your remote while you press and immediately release the smart/learn button on the motor unit.
