Why won't the keypad outside mount not open the garage door but the remotes work fine.

The keypad on the outside of the garage will not open the garage door. I have replaced the battery but still nothing.

Make sure you didn't accidently knock a wire off the rear of the motor unit. The wires connect to terminals 1 and 2 for the wall control.

If the wall button will operate the door up but none of the devices do then look at the wall button. Find the lock button and push it for 2 seconds and then try the remotes again. This is your vacation lock. You can get a manual at chamberlain.com. Now if the door does not open or close with the remotes you can reprogram them. Press the colored learn button on the motor head and then press the button on the remote. Repeat for each remote. If they fail to program you will need a new logic board. Thanks BB

Make sure you are doing it properly. Press and hold the button on the opener 6 sec to erase it. Then hold the desired button 'on the remote' down, while holding the button on the remote down press and release the button on the opener. The opener should be synced up with the remote then.

Hi... I have a Sears Craftsman Garage door Opener Model# 139.53600 Outside garage door keypad which is hard wired (electric) isn't working. However the inside keypad and the car transmitter are both...

A wireless keypad will not work with your opener. Your opener is pretty old and the new models are much safer. You might consider replacing the entire thing.

Mounted keypad will not open garage door when I enter the code

Make sure the battery is good. It isn't uncommon to get one that has been on the shelf for a long period. If you still have the same problem and your hand remotes work okay you keypad is bad.

Remote/homelink and touchpad problem

Your keypad is not the same "generation" as your remotes. You operator will work with your security plus remotes or your old keypad but not both. Yor cheapest solution is to replace your keypad.

Remote only closes the garage door, will not open it

Anytime a door opens and/or closes randomly or doesn’t work consistently I look for a smashed wire between the motor unit and the wall button.

If the wire is smashed the insulation becomes so thin that power will leak thru the insulation and activate the door or interfere with the remote signal.

Loosen the staples with a small screwdriver and slide the wire about ½ inch to move any areas of thin insulation away from the staples.

The second thing would be a bad wall button or a remote with a sticking button.
Or a remote in someone’s purse that gets the button pushed by other stuff in the purse.

The test is to disconnect the push button wires at the power unit. If the self operation / interference stops you have located the problem. If you reconnect the wires and disconnect the wire at the wall button this will tell you if the problem is the wire or the button.

In your case the expansion of the wall in the afternoon may be enough to cause pressure on the wire to increase the problem – works in the morning but not the afternoon.

Also after you change the batteries you need to reprogram the remotes.
