As is often the case with all things home-related, the garage door opener remote failing will happen when it’s least expected and at the most inconvenient time.

The garage door remote is a transmitter and serves as a handy tool that uses a radio signal to activate the opener within the garage. The button on the remote transmits the radio signal to the opener, telling it to either open or close the door.

There are many reasons a garage door opener remote will fail. Sometimes, the transmitted signal can be interrupted; other times, there is a circuit board issue. Regardless of the issue, homeowners often need help to get to the bottom of the problem.

Common problems with garage door remotes

  • Expired batteries

    Batteries can cause a number of problems with garage door opener systems. They are the first thing a homeowner should check when a remote stops working. Batteries expire and can corrode if exposed to moisture.

  • Damage

    If the remote is damaged, it may stop working. Damage can occur if the remote is dropped, stepped on, or exposed to water.

  • Disrupted Signal

    If an object is between the garage door opener remote and the garage door opener, it may not work. A broken antenna or a remote out of range will also disrupt the signal.

  • Lock button engaged

    Garage door openers are often equipped with a lock button on the control panel inside the garage. The homeowner may have accidentally engaged the lock switch, making the remote ineffective.

  • Door wiring problem

    When no other solutions resolve a malfunctioning garage door opener remote, it may be a wiring issue within the opener itself. In these cases, a repair technician will need to inspect the opener’s wiring to determine if that’s the cause.
