Changed the batteries and worked for me. I had to reprogram after changing the batteries though and the door had to be closed. It didn't work initially when I tried reprogram while the door is open. Just a side note. Really appreciate the tip and that definitely saved me some money.
Hey, glad you were able to get this fixed without much expense! That is a good tip about the door being closed when reprogramming. Thank you for the feedback!
I have tried an hours and at least 12 times to reprogram my Chamberlain but I believe some of the numbers after six years and I've tried to reprogram it so I guess I'll end up buying one online at your suggestion so thank you so much
I bought a new keypad recently and to my surprise, I found it used battery’s!!! I don’t recall ever changing the batteries on my old ones. My wife thinks we did at least once over the 30yrs since having them installed. Either way, long battery life! 😂😂😂
Dude! I'ved watched no less than some 10-15 videos regarding "garage door keypad issues" and your vid just helped solve my issue,...sort of! I've tried replacing the battery,...some 3 times,...I even extended the antenna wire (as done on another TH-cam channel),...to changing the code no less than 5-6 times! So, I just tried what you just showed,...that is, "Press the individual numbers to see if the keypad lights up"! After doing this,...I discovered that no less than 4 of the numbers on the keypad are bad. Some wouldn't like up,...and some would slightly light up or double flash! I'm sure this "double flash" registers as if the number was pressed twice. So, I isolated 4 numbers that only light up once and also lit up every press of the numbers. I made a new code and the garage door opens every single time,...and get this,...I only have to lightly "press" the number! Essentially, it looks like the pad got some heavy use over it's lifetime! Now for the no so good part! After trying to resolve this issue,...for some time,...research which Keypad to buy, I placed my order on Amazon about one hour prior to viewing your video! Oh well, I can always keep this in my memory bank!
I changed the battery twice and it didn't work. I never thought about changing my pass due to numbers being worn out. I'll try your suggestions. Either way am sure to save$$$. Thanks for the tutorial 👍
Hey Diana, I hope changing the passcode works for you! But you are absolutely right, you will save a ton of money by not having to call out a garage repair man. Good luck and thank you for the feedback!
Before I start, here are the devices I am having trouble with: Garage door opener model: 3024H Older keypad model: ACSD1G New keypad model: GK Okay, so my keypad was working fine. I unplugged my genie garage door opener (intellig 1000) to install new sensors. I plugged it back in, set the limits, and even paired my intellicode 2 remote. Everything was going great, until I had to pair my keypad. I reset the keypad to factory settings (for me you hold down program, 6, and the up/down button) and set my pin. I put my garage door opener into pairing mode, and the longer light would flash purple for about 30 seconds. The smaller light would briefly flash blue (while the purple light was still flashing aka while I was still in pairing mode) when I pressed the up/down button after entering my pin, indicating that it is picking up a signal but not pairing. But the long indicator light would still just flash. It is supposed to turn steady once it pairs. I replaced the battery, reset the factory settings many times, tried using the default 357 as my pin to pair, tried it with the door closed, with the door open, everything. I unplugged my garage door opener a lot, and then had to reset the limits a lot, and I even cleared paired remotes and keypads from the garage door openers memory. It would still let me pair remotes, but not the keypad. I even went and got a newer model keypad, model GK. I did everything I just mentioned all over again with this one, and it didn’t work. The GK has the capability to switch from series 1 mode to series 2 mode, so I tried pairing it on both modes multiple times, and it still didn’t work. Genie support has been difficult and has been telling me to do the exact same thing I’ve been doing. Oh and I meant to say, when it is not in pair mode, if I press the keypads, the small round light will rapidly flash purple, indicating that it is picking up the signal my keypad is putting out, but not accepting it because it’s not paired. I have been working on this for over a week now. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this so I can use (at least one of) my keypad(s)?
I’ve tried changing the passcode. I enter the current code and press # and it flashes very fast and for a long time. I then try to enter a new code but it continues to flash. Any ideas?
I have a Genie brand that suddenly quit. I changed the battery. But the keypad button lights do not all work some light but not all. It’s 20 years old. New Pad?
I’m assuming this is a detached garage. Without a garage remote or window to go through, then yes probably locked out. If keypad just needs a battery it may work.

You ever seen a new car stop the keypad from working? With the new SUV out of the garage it works, when the car is in there I can't get it to work. Tried reprogramming numbers and batteries. Is there a way to extend the signal wire at the back of the opener?
My garage door opener will open and close my rear garage door using the keypad, it will not open the front garage door, but if front garage door is open, I can close with keypad. Any idea what this might mean.
I was trying to program a new universal keypad and had already attached it to side of doorway. I cud not get it to sync. I tried to remove it but cud not get one screw out. I tried again today with no luck.now my old remotes wont open the door. I am lockrd out! Please help.
I have a very unusual situation - the garage door opens and close as expected from the inside component, but when I use the keypad - it opens only 3 inches ?!? any ideas?
That is very odd. Only thing I can think of is that the enter button on the keypad might be getting stuck after successfully entering the code and it is sending the signal twice to the door.
Keypad is not lighting up checked battery and it is ok. Code not working but when I open the door and press 'enter' the door closes. Any suggestions other than changing code?
Yeah that is definitely the one button you don't want it to be. Unfortunately since it gets pressed every time the keypad is used, it is just as likely to go bad as the numbers. Well the one positive note is that at least you know once it is replaced it will be fixed and it will be a lot less than if a garage door service came to diagnose and fix it for you.
@@HowToHomeDIY We replaced it today with a Universal keypad, installed and set the code...Everything works!! Thanks to your TH-cam video, we saved a service fee, repair costs, etc. It is very much appreciated! Have a Blessed day.
@@lawrencebaptist3146 Thats great to hear! I am glad it all worked out and everything is back in working order! Thank you so much for the feedback, I really appreciate it! You have a blessed day as well!
When i enter the keypad code the light attached to garage opener assembly turns on and off but the garage door wont open. It would open with remote or wall switch. What to do ?
Hey that is a hard one to diagnose. I would start by trying to relearn the keypad to the garage door. If that doesnt work, I have seen where there can be interference with the signal from light bulbs you may have installed. LEDs and CFL bulbs can emit a radio frequency that can sometimes cause issues with the keypad being able to communicate with the door. Hope these help!
Does the opener lights blink when you attempt to program it? How are you programming it? Since the one in the video is a linear keypad, it might not work the same as yours (if yours is not a Linear keypad).
1 minute and 40 seconds talking about the symptoms and replacement of a battery, which is the most common issue out of a 7 minute video is not the majority of the video.
Garage door keypad when garage door is closed doesn't work. Everything works fine when opened from the inside. I replaced the battery and changed the pin as usual. Still nothing.
Should be a compartment on the keypad, usually towards the bottom like the one in video. Sometimes there are screws that need to be removed to get the cover off.
No help. Standard troubleshooting of everything that you would normally do. Replace the batteries, duh. Press the keypad lights up duh. Resync the remote to the motor duh. No help.
Thanks thanks

What brand keypad are you using?
Good information 👍.
Thank you for the feedback, I am glad it was helpful! 👍
I have a genie pro. If I change the keypad do I have to interact with the learn button on the motor?
I couldn’t see the red LED backlight in the bright sunshine, so I had to take mine down and bring it inside the dark garage to do this. 😅
I have a Genie brand that suddenly quit. I changed the battery. But the keypad button lights do not all work some light but not all. It’s 20 years old. New Pad?
What are the options if your garage opener doesn’t recognize the new keypad when trying to program it?
Maybe it's not compatible or the battery is dead. Or it's just faulty
I have done all of this, and the new keypad is still not connecting to the garage door. What should I try next?
Keypad works to get the door up, can't get door down when using keypad. Ideas?
what can be done if door is closed, no man door to enter garage, keypad not working. I'm locked out?
I’m assuming this is a detached garage. Without a garage remote or window to go through, then yes probably locked out. If keypad just needs a battery it may work.
Do you have a metal latch/handle/knob about 3ft. up from the ground in the center of your garage door?

What’s the name of the keypad shown? I need to find the manual online
Linear MDTK keypad
Can the enter button wear out?
Yes unfortunately it can. Would be the worst one to go bad but it makes sense as it is used every time.
Keypad is not lighting up checked battery and it is ok. Code not working but when I open the door and press 'enter' the door closes. Any suggestions other than changing code?
No, I would probably start with changing the code to see if that would work. May have a bad number not working.
Uhh it might be in vacation 🔒 mode
Had this problem years ago. It was the battery haha.
