- The remotes and keypad you want to keep
Step by step
Step 1: Find the SET button on the motor unit.
Step 2: Press and hold SET. Keep holding past the P and the 1, for about 15 seconds, until the display flashes E. Then release.
Step 3: Press and release SET once to confirm. The E disappears and all remotes and keypads are erased.
Step 4: Check that none of the old remotes work.
Step 5: Program the remotes and keypad you're keeping again.
Still not working? Here is what it usually is.
- You may have let go early, at the 1, which starts travel-limit setup instead. Wait for the display to clear, then start over and hold the full 15 seconds.
- An old car button still works. Clear it from the car as well.

Common Questions
We just moved in. Should we really do this?
- Yes. You don't know how many remotes the previous owners or their contractors still have. Erasing them takes a minute, and then you set a new keypad PIN as well.
