How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before removing covers or RF modules.
- Step 1 – Re‑program remotes: Clear and re‑add remotes using the LEARN button. If F2 appears during this process, continue with hardware checks.
- Step 2 – Inspect RF module: If your B&D model has a plug‑in RF board, remove and reseat it. Check for bent pins or corrosion.
- Step 3 – Check antenna: Ensure the antenna wire is intact and routed away from metal and mains wiring.
- Step 4 – Test with opener cover on: Some RF issues appear only with the cover installed. Test range and reliability with the cover in place.
- Step 5 – Replace RF module: If wall button operation is normal but RF remains unreliable and F2 persists, replace the RF receiver module or main board as specified by B&D.
