Also, you should have the remotes you want to program with you and make sure their batteries work. Press any button on the remote to see if it works well. It should be on even before it is programmed if it has an LED light.
There are two different kinds of LiftMaster remote controls: the standard and the MAX. These models are part of the first group:

- LiftMaster 893LM
- LiftMaster 375UT
The second group includes:
- LiftMaster 890MAX
- LiftMaster 893MAX
- LiftMaster 895MAX
- LiftMaster 877MAX
Garage door openers, commercial door openers, external wired-in receivers, and gate operators are just some of the many devices that may be controlled by the LiftMaster standard remote.
HOW TO PROGRAM A STANDARD LIFTMASTER REMOTE
If your LiftMaster garage door opener has stopped working or is making strange noises, it may be time to reset the standard LiftMaster codes. Here’s how to do it:
1. Locate the red “learn” button on your garage door opener unit. This is usually located near the garage door opener’s light bulb.
2. Press and hold the “learn” button for approximately 6 seconds until the garage door opener’s light bulb begins to flash.
3. On your garage door remote control, press and release the “smart” or “smart learn” button. The garage door opener’s light bulb will flash once to indicate that it has learned the code from the remote control.
4. Repeat steps 2-3 for each additional remote control that you wish to program.
HOW TO PROGRAM A LIFTMASTER MAX GARAGE OPENER
To program your LiftMaster Max garage opener, you will need to first identify the type of garage door opener system that you have. There are two types of LiftMaster Max garage opener systems: the older model and the newer model. If you have the older model, you will need to use a special keypad to program your garage door opener. If you have the newer model, you can simply use the buttons on your garage door opener itself.
Once you have determined which type of system you have, programming your LiftMaster Max garage opener is a relatively simple process. For the older model, you will need to press and hold the “Learn” button on your garage door opener for approximately six seconds. Once the light on your garage door opens, you can release the “Learn” button. You can then enter your four-digit PIN code followed by the “#” sign. After you have done this, press and hold the “Enter” button for two seconds.
For the newer model, programming is even simpler. Just press and hold the “Smart” button on your garage door opener for approximately six seconds. The light on your garage door opener will flash and you can release the “Smart” button. You can then enter your four-digit PIN code followed by the “#” sign. Press and hold the “Enter” button for two seconds once again and your garage door opener will be programmed!
It is important to note that you can only program one button on the remote control at a time. If you need to program other buttons, repeat the steps for each button you want to program.
You should also test the remote control to see that it works the way you expect it to.
If you are having problems with any of these steps, LiftMaster has online manuals for most of its products, which can help you if you have the patience. Search for the model number of your remote control or garage door opener to get more information. You can also reach out to our garage door experts for help.
