Garage Remotes

Posted on

Here we show the three types of Garage Remotes that you might have been issued. Also we show what battery they may use.

When your battery gets low, the indicator light that shows when a button is pressed will blink or flicker. That signifies it is time for a new battery. A steady light will show the battery is okay.

Type-1

Type-1 Remotes

This shows the original style of the Garage Remotes. Ignore the orange colour of the buttons as the more recent PTX5V2 versions had grey button areas.  This style takes a CR2032 lithium button battery.

Type-2

Type-2-reverse

Type-2 Remotes

This shows the second type of remotes we issued. They are a good design but the attachment can fail at an early stage.

To open for battery (Type A23 battery) replacement, see the small access screw on the back. The screw may be beneath a label.

Type-3

Type-3 remote

This shows the third style of remotes we have provided.  These are more robust and have a sliding protective section.

Access to change battery ( CR2032) is the 4 small screws on the reverse.
