Default Garage door opener

Just replaced my 26 year old LiftMaster garage door opener. The installer advised me that due to LiftMasters use of a different frequency band, my 2013 XK inbuilt opener button can't be programmed to control it.

Anyone else here dealt with this issue? Always on the lookout for the most complex solution to problems, I'm thinking there must be a "frequency band shifter."

There is such a thing. It's referenced several times in at least one thread in this forum and can be found using the SEARCH function.
The Google can also find many of these things.

My son has a 2014 XFRS. We were never able to get his liftmaster to work with it. Tried everything.

Go to the lift master web site and they have a signal accessory that will fix your problem. Here is what it looks like.

Like mentioned, I bought this Homelink Repeater/Bridge Jagtoes has pictured several years back when I also updated my Garage Door opener and couldn't get my XK homelink to pair. This device works like a charm.

Thanks, guys! The installer did say LiftMaster had an add-on device but didn't speak highly of it. Perhaps he was afraid I'd ask him to make it work

I'll get one and give it a try.

Did you try this procedure yet? It has an extra couple of steps and was the only way to get all three of our JLR products to work.

I ultimately found it easier and less aggravating to carry around the garage door remote than to program the X150 opener. I do have some extra add-on crap for liftmaster that I wish I hadn't purchased...
