How To Change the Timing of the Garage Door Opener Light

Below are steps to change the length of time your garage door opener lights stay on using your wall-mounted door control.

A door control with the LIGHT and LOCK button or a Smart Control Panel is required to adjust the timing of the lights. If you do not have a door control with the LIGHT and LOCK button or a Smart Control Panel and you want a new door control with additional functionality, see your manual to find the accessories available for your model.

Tip: The LIGHT button will not control the lights when the door is in motion.

Repeat the steps to cycle through the time intervals.
