Well could well be, it's prob older than the Camry. Its been up and down thousands of times and they don't last forever. Speaking of Camrys, Backed it out the other day and it made a hell a racket. WTF I thought, naa just a jammed stone.

Gunna, is there a connection on the unit for a 2 wire push button unit by your house door, I would wire a push button to this and if it works then the problem is with the remote. All the wall push button does is bridge the remote operated relay contacts in the main unit, as mentioned contacts in relay could be dirty or just burnt out through many years of use, if relay is plug in type then replace.

I bought a $5 remote controlled relay from AliExpress and wired the receiver across the garage push button. It is the best door opener I have ever owned.

We have a Merlin in our Garage and never had a problem.We,ve been here 17years and it was in when we bought the house.Try resetting/changing the code numbers in the remote and the motor unit might do something. maybe! .You can buy new remotes on TM remotesonline (one word) is the name !.I bought a key ring type one about a year ago. from them.

Yea might try changing codes as its those wee slide ones. I have two remotes and nether work so doubt two would crap out at once? Or is that a thing.

I would be inclined to get an electrician to check the motor or an installer if there is one locally.

An update. I went out and changed codes and turned power off at its switch. It now is going again. I changed code back and its still going. I had last week sprayed contact cleaner around it all but hadn't since tried it till today. Time will tell I guess but somethin worked. till this arvo when i try again LOL.

Maybe the contact cleaner was shorting out 2 numbers at once and confusing it.! and not the remote. fingers crossed.

Contact cleaner evaporates very quickly.

Yes but it does leave a residue.The avionics guys at Air NZ only used isopropyl alcohol.
