Default Garage Door Key Pad Alstar MVP

Several years back a resident who lives in Lynnhaven was kind enough to give me a remote unit when I had lost mine. His name is Gary. I now need to reprogram my key pad and I cannot find his contact information. I also live in Lynnhaven across the street from Churchill Downs Recreation center. Gary if you are reading this or if someone in Lynnhaven knows Gary would you please contact Paul at 716-533-9227

What do you mean by reprogramming your keypad? What do you call a keypad? Most Garage door systems have 3 components.

1/Motor/Control overhead that gets programmed to remember signals sent that are meant to open and close.

2/ An inside wall station that is wired to the Motor and Control. Typically, this internal wall station (MVP wall unit is called a Superstation) that is used to either erase codes in the Motor/Control or in the learn mode to initiate transmitting new codes to the Motor/Control.

3/External wireless remotes which transmits a unique radio signal.

To use the external wireless remotes, their unique codes must be learned by the Motor/Control.

Each brand of system has unique instructions on how to do that.

You may not need to find Gary. If you describe the system you have (Brand, Components) and what/why you needing to reprogram you may be able to get guidance. That is why responses ask for type of unit.

No need to reprogram your remote:
Find the learn button on the garage door motor assembly, press it, then go to your keypad and enter any 4 digit number and hit the up/down button. Your garage door motor assembly should blink a couple of times. Now you’re programmed. Test it.
Same goes for your second garage door, but this time enter a different 4 digit number.
All work this way, I’ve been thru this many times.
Btw: anytime you move into a new house, I always clear the codes out of the motor unit because you don’t know if 1 of the subs programmed their car to your garage door while building your house. Then they can come by and open your door after you move in
