Rating: - really works but
Got this for my ancient garage door. It really works! Well as long as you are willing to experiment since unfortunately the instruction is dead wrong!!! Hope they could update the codes included in their paper. However, all you need to do during programming is press and press until you get it working! and voila! Happy that I got this!!!

My Genie opener was installed in 1990, and I had dropped the remote for what turned out to be the last time. I had searched and found out that model remote was no longer made. I took a chance and ordered the Clicker. When the Clicker arrived, I found the reference to my unit. I knew about the DIP switches inside my existing remote, and the Clicker instructions told me to program the DIP switches inside the Clicker just the same. (This is only true for specific models of openers, remotes and year installed - others use the programming button on the receiver). I followed the clear directions: they seemed a bit odd, but I followed them exactly (17 clicks) and voila! ~ the garage door opened! I programmed the other door as well, and now I have one compact remote to open both doors. I cannot believe it took me so long to find the solution, and it took less than five minutes to program the two doors. Wow! Am I happy! The instructions are clear and detailed, and you just need to follow them exactly. I actually missed the first time and simply started over, following more carefully.

Just OK it is a little week. You have to be right up on the door before it will activate. Programming was easy and it is an inexpensive replacement. I used it to replace a RAYNOR opener.
Rating: - Won't work on some of the old stuff
I have an older Sears/Craftsman door opener and the remote control quit working. The universal clicker wouldn't work, so I ended up replacing the receiver. I'm not certain, but it may have been the receiver was so old that it couldn't be keyed to the new clicker. The circuit board was dated 1979, and it could have been the receiver was originally the problem. I was able to use the universal clicker with the new unit.
Rating: - Works great with old and new openers
It took me only 15 minutes to program and test the KLIK1U with a new Liftmaster Elite model 3850 opener and a 1988 vintage Sears Craftsman opener (with 9 3-position slider switches). I only wish this transmitter had 3 buttons, since I have a second vintage Sears opener.
