Question:
I lost my Genie garage door remote opener two days ago. I think my
kid's friend took it over went he came over the week-end. I bought a
new one at Home Depot and programmed it according to the instruction so
I can use it for now.
What do I need to do so whoever took my old one can't open my garage
doors?
Answer:
IF it's an Intellicode system, doing a full reset of the opener and thus
voiding the registration of all existing remotes, then re-registering
the new opener, will do it. Not sure how it works with the older ones.
t's an Intellicode remote with one big round button to press in the middle.
What I did was (according to the remote transmitter's instruction), opened
the cover of the garage door opener (the one is nailed to the ceiling of the
garage), pressed the "learn code" (the light blinked) and pressed the button
on the remote twice a couple of times. And that's it.
