If your clicker garage door remote isn't opening door even though keypad is working, problem is isolated to clicker remote itself, not opener power or logic board, since keypad uses same receiver but different device, indicating remote-specific issue. The most common cause is dead or weak battery in clicker remote, as coin cell or AAA batteries last 2 to 5 years and when dead cause no signal, so replace battery ensuring correct polarity. Remote may have lost programming due to power outage, pressing Learn button too long erasing memory, or logic board reset, so reprogram clicker by pressing Learn button on opener motor unit hanging from ceiling briefly and pressing clicker button within 30 seconds until opener light blinks, which resyncs remote. Check if wall console is in lock mode that disables remotes but not keypad, indicated by blinking light on wall console, so press and hold lock button for 5 to 10 seconds to unlock and restore clicker function. Radio frequency interference from LED light bulbs installed in opener that are not opener-rated can block clicker signal while keypad still works due to different frequency or stronger signal, so replace with approved bulbs or remove bulbs to test. Antenna wire on opener motor unit that hangs down may be damaged or not hanging straight, reducing range for clicker. Clicker may be damaged from dropping or water exposure, requiring replacement costing 30 to 60 dollars. Try clicker close to opener to test range.
