Turning your antenna in the opposite direction of high frequency signals can divert unwanted interference from disturbing the frequency of your garage door opener which in turn can improve its operating ability.
Interference garage door opener remote.
I tested two remotes for this garage door and two other remotes for two other garage doors.
Step by step process of elimination is the best way to determine what is causing the decreased range on the garage door opener remote.
Many different electronic devices can cause radio frequency interference which will reduce the range of the garage door opener remote or cause it to work intermittently.
It s a good thing we can only hear a limited range of audio frequencies 20hz to 20 000hz because if we did hear everything in the radio frequency range it would drive us crazy.
The interference seems to last for an hour or two.
Although your garage door opener is designed to listen out for the noise coming from your garage door remote control it can accidentally listen to noise coming from a different device instead leading to interference and unpredictable behaviours when your devices suddenly don t want to co operate.
Also equipped with auto seek dual frequency technology your garage door opener remote will automatically seek either 315 or 390 mhz which minimizes interference from surrounding devices and improves overall performance.
None of them would work unless inside the garage standing nearly directly beneath the opener.
Avoid frustration with your garage door by knowing the many sources of radio interference that may be preventing your garage door remote from working.
After that the garage door remotes start functioning normally again.
However in some cases.
