How to reset a Genie opener and erase remotes

These steps are for current Genie openers with a square PROGRAM/SET button. It takes about a minute. You'll need a step ladder.

  1. Hold PROGRAM/SET until the round LED turns blue, then release (long LED flashes purple).
  2. Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons together until both LEDs turn blue.
  3. Release: all remotes, keypads and car links are erased (wired wall console still works).
  4. Reprogram any remotes you want to keep.
