The LiftMaster LEARN button is key to a smooth garage door experience. It’s important to know where it is and what it can do. Read on to learn how to locate the LEARN button in case you need to troubleshoot a faulty remote or opener.
From the inside of your garage, the controls on LiftMaster openers are on the left side of your opener.
