How do you program the remote controls on a garage door opener?
I had to replace the battery on one of my remote controls. When I tried to reprogram it, I accidentally erased all the codes in the garage door opener. Now when I try to reprogram them, I can only get one of them to work and the other 2 will not work.

First you need to erase the codes in the garage door opener. To do this, hold the learn button on the back of the motor unit in until the LED blinks. The best way I know to reprogram is to hold the button on the remote in while you press and release the learn button. The LED should blink and the door should move. Follow the directions in your owners manual to program the keyless entry, they are different for different models.
