After struggling with the keypad and instruction sheet for two days, I finally looked for and found this video. I'm now all set and it took a few minutes. The hardest part was setting up the ladder to reach the door opener unit ... this part was not clear in the instructions! Wow, so easy once I understood. So happy someone thought to make and post this video! I wish the instructions had included the suggestion to look for it if needed.
Thanks for this video. I tried to get the pin-pad working a couple years ago with written instructions and never worked. I was out of town when the garage door was installed and my wife never got a pin for it. This video cleared everything up!!! I had to realize that to make it work from the start I had to use the factory (3-5-7) pin to get the up and down arrow button to work. Once that is "talking" to the door I had no problem changing the pin.
Finally found this video. Wanted to reset my pin. Did so but must have gotten a keybounce so the pin didn't work. This video had the procedure I could find nowhere else - how to set the keypad to factory defaults. Problem solved, correct pin set, two happy door openers. Thank you!
Thank you! I tried the instructions in the owner’s manual- didn’t work. Tried the instructions on the inside of the keypad flip up door- didn’t work. Finally, tried these instructions and it worked perfectly. You could improve these by slowing down a touch. Thank you again.
Worked perfectly. My mother-in-law hired her garage door guy to change the code and program the fobs. He spent an hour and a half and was not able to complete his task. He apologized and refused to except any form of payment. I decided to look up the video on CZcams. Found it, and within 10 minutes was able to reprogram it free of charge. Thank you guys for posting this video. Just goes to show my mother-in-law as usual trust certain laborers, More than her obviously incompetent son-in-law. Thanks again for allowing me to prove her wrong. Living the dream
Thank you!!! This video is easy to understand AND it fixed the problem. I spent about an hour trying to fix the problem, then I found this video and fixed it in less than 5 mins.
Thank you! Just spent time on the phone with the local Overhead business who was a complete ass. He insisted I drive there to program it after I had issues.
TL;DR: Do a factory reset by holding the PROGRAM and up/down buttons until the light blinks and then goes out. This sets the code back to the default 357. Push the learn button on the motor. Go to the keypad, press 357 and then press up/down repeatedly. If the garage door starts moving, it worked and the remote is paired. If not, start over. Once paired, reset the pin with 357 PROGRAM [new pin] PROGRAM. Now the new pin should work.
My keypad is going through batteries in about a week despite not using it but once a week. Light isn't staying on so any idea what I could do to fix it?
This is a simple process. The big question is: why does the keypad loose it's capability to activate the door after a few months? Even if it is the batteries it should hold the program. (it's what is says in the directions)
I have the same problem. Red LED on bottom of door opener flashes red each time enter is pressed. Earlier I reset the remote as explained in the video prior to step one. After doing step 1, the head unit clicked. Now, nothing happens with 357 except for the light flashing. 😩

After replacing keypad batteries. Door would not open/close. Went through the setup many times. (Not new to this) Now any button on the keypad will open the door. ?????
For model 2026 this may help. Disregard the printed instructions for the keypad. Follow the instructions on the inside cover for keyless entry. You probably have ID #1 if you have the larger remote. Follow the printed instructions for your car remotes. Be prepared to spend a few hours. There are multiple videos and directions. It should not be that difficult. Overhead you can do better. See if homeowners can do this in under an hour.
The 357 code is not doing anything after the factory reset? Control unit outside lights up and allows me to try and program the factory reset but it will not work the door. The indoor garage and car remotes work but not the outside keypad unit.
1. First factory reset by holding the "PROGRAM" and "ARROW" key at the same time, holding the keys (~5 seconds) until the red LED flashes as described in the video at 1:40. 2. Next hold the SQUARE BUTTON on the garage door opener (as described at 2:25 in the video) until you see the light turn blue. 3. Quickly go to the keypad and enter "3-5-7" slowly, then press the "ARROW" key slowly several times (as described in the video at 2:40). 4. The garage door should open. If it does not, make sure you are using the correct brand of garage door opener and associated keypad (Overhead Door). If you the brands of both are correct, replace the two AAA batteries in the opener keypad and check to see that the garage door has power and opens and shuts by pressing the internal button. 5. Lastly, repeat steps 1-3 above, following them precisely in a slow and methodical manner. 6. If this doesn't work, your keypad opener is probably not working correctly. 7. If a replacement keypad still doesn't work, it might be your garage door opener that's faulty, but before replacing it as well, I would consult with someone and/or watch this video again taking precise notes, as there's likely a detail you are missing.
@@lenschulwitz1934 It didn't work for me. The blue program light turns (purple) then red when I put in 357. Must be a bad opener. It is over ten yrs old.
The factory reset is not working for me. The LEDs just keep blinking fast as soon as I press the program and up/down button together. It's supposed to blink twice as per the video. Any help ?
CZcams always saves the day with a demo - thanks!

i realize it is pretty off topic but do anybody know a good place to stream new movies online ?
@Hugo Jayden Ehh I use flixportal. you can find it if you google :) -kylo
@Kylo Kingsley Thanks, signed up and it seems to work :) I really appreciate it!!
@Hugo Jayden happy to help :)

Took me a bit to realize this same thing!

Honestly this video truly was a lifesaver,why so many steps I think they I need to simplify it for dopey people like me

So helpful
Worked! Your manual is impossible to understand, video is so much better. Thanks.
I have been working on trying to reset my garage code for months. I finally found this video and was able to do it in 5 minutes. Thank you so much.

Thanks...! It worked and was definitly simple to program. I installed and programmed the unit within the time lenght of this video.
Best video I've seen on this. Clear and concise. Thanks!

No matter how many times I’ve tried it had other people try, mine still won’t work. The reset worked but it won’t let me program a new code.
Crazy
My keypad is going through batteries in about a week despite not using it but once a week. Light isn't staying on so any idea what I could do to fix it?
Does this work with older 12 DIP pin openers? LiftMaster?
EXCELLENT Video!
Thank you.

Didn't work. I went through the steps. The garage door program light turns red ever time, as soon as I hit 357.

Anyone know if this works with Model 555?

@@lancebrown8823 sounds like you have a different opener, there's probably a different method of programming it.
@@lenschulwitz1934 Genie 1000, same outdoor opener as the one on the video.
ur welcome

how to reprogram keypaid
Reprogramming a keypad is right up there with slamming my thumb with a hammer. Something you hope doesn’t happen often
so how long is the temporary pin good for???
Until one uses the Master Code again ---- that's what I understood from end of video
Didnt work and screwed up the system more.
0 reason why my pin should have ever been reset
The comments below are hilarious. Like attending a village idiots reunion
You guys are terrible at bringing your business into the new age. Can’t wait for a better company to replace you!
This is the most poorly made product I've ever seen. No haptics. The lights so janky. OMG please go bankrupt
Thank you!!!
