can two of these remotes work off the same frequency on the same garage opener? Every time I program one , the other stops working and vice versa

It will work if you program them together at the same time. I did this with both of my remote. Had to press down on both remotes at the same time when programming to same frequency. Hopes this help!

I cannot give you a solid answer on that, but Im pretty sure if you bout two strips, one remote would work on both.

I wanted to do the same thing. I received two units and took them apart hoping to find dip switches or a pot to set the frequencies. I was unsuccessful - it appears they are factory set. I ended up putting both buttons on the door with "please ring both" written on them. So far so good. There may be a way to set them but it is beyond my skills. As I recall there was a code on the packaging which may indicate the frequency. You may be able to get two units with the same code. Good luck.

Not sure...I had a problem with my 15 year old Liftmaster, and tried to replace the receiver, but that didn't work....the frequency was wrong, or whatever....then I needed a transformer......and was getting nowhere......so eventually I replaced the entire garage door opener....so no more problems. I should have realized that there was a problem, when the yellow LED on the old unit started blinking....I ignored it and then the remotes wouldnt work....and I returned the receiver for a refund.

Look at the color of your program/learn button on the garage door unit itself. That's how you determine frequency compatibility.

According to Google they are the same frequency but you may have to do trial and error on the dip switches located inside the remote.

That would sound logical. My remotes didn't work then I replaced the board then my remotes started to work again. The manual open button in my garage always worked though. Be sure to order the correct circuit card. Some cards like very similar.

I've used about a dozen of these devices and no two were on the same frequency. I think your using two or more in a close proximity would be fine. Each device will work only from it's own remote. The chances of you getting two sets on the same frequency would be very rare in my opinion.

I have no idea. I only have the one set which I have been very happy with, but I have no idea how a second set will interact with each other. You might check internally on the remotes & recievers to see if there are "Dip Switches" that could be reset to a different code to eliminate possible interaction. That's my best guess for you !

I have two remotes and two openers, each remote opens both doors. I would imagine that you could program as many remotes that you would need.

I have no idea. If you buy two remotes, assuming you're using the term remote in referring to the 'base' unit, you would have 5 receivers with each remote and they should all have the same frequency so it should work.

My husband and I looked at the packaging and remote. It is NOT a multi-channel remote. So, we would guess that if you bought two of them there is a chance that they may be on the same channel and you wouldn't be able to change them.

I would suspect is another signal in the area on the same frequency. What you need to do, to be sure, is go into the module in the ceiling and change one of the or two of the frequency sliders and do the same thing on your Remote.

No, and that is because it is a different system. I have another house that uses the 953, and know from experience that I can't swap remotes. I tried to work both openers with the same remote, and it would not work. I hope this helps.

They can. When you program the remote for one, you can do the other one at the same time

Funny, but I accidently programmed the top button on two of these to the same door. Went to correct the error and mate one of the remotes to the other door, via "reset" operation then mate to other door. It mated to that door but still does other door too. So to be clear, one button, does both doors, at same time, which is not what I want. Can not undo this either.....

not sure if you can do that with this switch unless you find a remote that works on the same frequency
