I think some electronics in the motor have gone kaput. The wall mounted button works, but I have 2 remotes and neither works. (I did change the battery on one as well as try to re-pair it with the motor, to no avail.)
My options are to replace the circuit board ($125) or buy a new motor unit ($199). The original motor is a Liftmaster and the lift is a belt; it’s probably about 20 years old. The cost of a new motor unit is not hugely more than the circuit board and I would get additional features like a battery backup.
If I go for a new unit will it work with the existing belt? I’m looking at a basic 1/2hp Chamberlain. Thanks!
Yes, clearly the motor itself works fine. When I said motor unit I meant the entire box which includes the circuit board electronics that’s failed. If the radio in the motor unit isn’t working I’m not sure the Meross is going to solve that problem.
the meross can connect to the button wiring on many units.
