The Button On The Wall Works, But The Remote Control Won’t WorkA remote control uses batteries to send wireless signals, so a dead battery may cause it to fail even though the door control works. Your garage door opener is equipped with an integrated receiver logic board that receives a signal from for your hand-held remote controls wirelessly, whereas your wall-mounted door control panel is hard-wired. The hand-held remote controls and wired door control operate independently, so it is not uncommon for one device to work while the other does not. If all remotes are working intermittently, or stop working there may be interference. There are a few reasons for your remote control not to work:
The LOCK Button is ONThe Multi-Function Door Control Panel includes a LOCK button. With this feature, the indicator light behind the push bar will flash when the lock switch is turned ON and when you press the remote control the light bulb on the opener will flash two times. With the LOCK button activated, the receiver logic board will NOT accept signals from the remote control. The door will, however, open and close by activating the push bar, key switch or keypad. To deactivate this feature:
The Battery is DepletedReplace the battery. Most remote controls use a 3-volt lithium battery (3V CR2032). Some of the older remote controls use a 12-volt battery.

See How To Remove And Replace The Battery In My Chamberlain Remote Control, or How To Remove And Replace The Battery In The KLIK Series Remote Controls. The Remote Control Needs to be Erased and ReprogrammedIt is also possible for the remote control to lose communication with the garage door opener. If this occurs the remote control will have to be reprogrammed to the garage door opener. See How To Remove And Replace The Battery In My Chamberlain Remote Control, or How To Remove And Replace The Battery In The KLIK Series Remote Controls.
If a remote control or keyless entry still will not program:
There’s a Short in the Door Control, Door Control Wire or Receiver Logic BoardSince the door control is hard wired into the logic board it can lock out the remote controls internally. In order to determine if that is the case do the following troubleshooting steps.
