Is it possible that you used a different controller than usual or pressed a different button.

We had all kinds of problems when we moved in as the contractors and real estate agents had made most of the hand controls compatible with the overhead controllers. Remember, that it is the overhead control, that must remember the signal the handheld control sends. It can only remember when in the learn mode and then only what is transmitted.
