This article explains how to replace the battery in a Chamberlain garage door opener step-by-step. If the Chamberlain garage door opener you have has a backup system, the battery powers it. Every one to two years, the battery in the garage door opener should be replaced.

The battery monitoring feature on the backup system will alert you with a sound signal if your battery needs to be changed. The garage door backup system’s main goal is to open the garage door in the event of a power outage. This is why the backup battery for your garage door opener needs to be in good condition and able to maintain its charge for at least one cycle of opening and closing the door.

You simply need safety gear, including gloves and eye protection, the replacement battery, and a screwdriver to change the garage door opener batteries.

Disconnect the power cord from the garage door opener.
Unlock the garage door opener light lens.
Take the top off the battery compartment.

The Garage Door Opener battery will be fully charged and ready for testing after 24 hours. Open the garage door after unplugging the backup system. The door will open more slowly than usual if the battery is not completely charged.
