The only thing that the weather could affect is if there was water that got in to the keypad. It is water retardant when the cover is down, not water proof. Also if the cover has been left open water can easily get inside. If the silicone board or any leads get corroded then this could happen. If this happens with the remotes too then you need to turn up the down force 1/4 turn clockwise. If the remotes work well not the keypad then you may need to replace the keypad. Sometimes placing the device in a bag of rice for a couple of weeks draws the moisture out and it might work afterward.

If you need help programming the new keypad resubmit question with the model of the opener. You can get a replacement device at sears or at searspartsdirect.com, click on the contact us icon for help. Thanks BB

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
