and released, then the
programming is complete.
There is no need to
continue programming

.If the Universal Home
Remote indicator
light blinks rapidly for
two seconds, then turns
to a constant light and the
garage door does not
move, continue with the
programming Steps 4
through 6.
It may be helpful to have
another person assist with
