![]() This will probably take some careful wiggling and nudging to get it to clear the slot (3) Push in along the top edge of the battery cover and simultaneously pull outward at the bottom.If your garage door still refuses to work correctly even after replacing your transmitter batteries, make sure that you didnt accidentally engage the garage doors lock or the openers manual release. ![]() This frees the bottom and the tab at one side (2) Push the battery cover gently toward the side not yet released. Sequence of tab releases: (1) Release the tab at bottom. And, finally, a tab at the top that runs the width of the case. Then there are slightly larger tabs centered on each side. This will contact a "springy" tab, pushing it up and clearing its slot. This is accessed by pushing up with a very small Phillips head screwdriver (or, I think any round metal object of small diameter) up through the small hole at the bottom. There is one small one centered along the bottom edge. What had me stumped for a while was not knowing that there are four plastic tabs to be addressed to remove the cover. When I put the cover back on, I noticed that there was something of a lip on the top of the cover, meaning that the bottom wanted to swing in rather than simply go straight up. I was then able with a bit of work to pry the cover off. I then attempted to rotate the screwdriver to pry the cover away from the main body of the opener and finally heard a loud "pop" as the entire cover moved down about 1/8th of an inch. However, I finally found that if I pushed in the center top of the cover I could create a gap wide enough for a normal flat head screwdriver to fit. I wasn't able to get this method to work. Below is a picture you can reference.īut strangely, the picture didn't show how the screw driver was to be used. You will have to insert a small Phillips screw driver into the small hole at the bottom of the cover and gently pull outward to loosen and slide the cover down to remove. The second oldest style keypads have a pin hole at the bottom of the keypad cover. How do I get the bottom cover off so I can change the battery? Is there some kind of track on where to press or squeeze or something? ![]() It normally isn't directly exposed to the sun - it has a cover that flips up, although occasionally somebody forgets to put it back down. There is no obvious issue like it being painted over, although the plastic kind of "feels" very slightly brittle, possible due to age. I have exerted all the force I dare to not break the plastic in the process! ![]() Just slide the bottom cover down and off and the battery will be underneath, right? Except that try as I might I can't get the cover to budge! I have tried squeezing on the sides, pressing on the front, and even trying to wedge a flat head screwdriver on the slot on the sides and/or button while doing any of the above. I don't know the exact model but it's one of 940CB, 976LM, and 376LM as these models apparently share this keypad.) The pictogram seems pretty obvious as to what to do: That was easily fixed, but now I am trying to replace the battery. One of the keys on the keypad for my garage door somehow got a key stuck temporarily and drained the battery.
