Your garage door control pad has a battery
January 26, 2025
No, really, it has a battery that needs periodic replacement. All my life I have assumed that the outside-on-the-wall garage door keypads are wired into the garage door opener.
Nope, it turns out they are just an extra remote control stuck to the wall.
Who knew?
Not me. Fortunately, I figured it out before I embarrassed myself by calling in a service technician.
On a related note, today I discovered that my garage door control keypad lights up when you push the buttons. (Provided the battery is not nearly dead.) Will wonders never cease‽
