Marantec 158750, Modular Receiver M17-891 - Synergy 916MHz
The Marantec 158750 M17-891 is the modular radio receiver for Marantec Synergy operators using the 916 MHz radio platform. It plugs into the opener head and receives commands from compatible 916 MHz Marantec remotes and radio accessories. This type of part is commonly replaced when the opener works from the wall station but does not respond to radio controls after batteries, programming, and transmitter condition have been ruled out. The most important ordering detail is frequency. The M17-891 is not interchangeable with the 315 MHz M16-831 receiver, and a 916 MHz receiver will not learn 315 MHz remotes. The opener model, receiver slot, and transmitter frequency should all line up before installing this part.

Technician Note
Match this Marantec part by the model label, original part number, rail type, frequency, or parts diagram before ordering. Marantec used similar-looking parts across several generations, and small differences in receiver frequency, housing shape, rail style, or sensor hardware can prevent a proper repair.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the Marantec model number on the opener head or parts diagram.
- Compare the original part number to the number shown on this product page.
- For rail parts, confirm chain versus belt rail and standard versus heavy-duty rail.
- For receivers, confirm the operating frequency and remote family before ordering.
- For photo eye parts, repair the safety system properly and never bypass required sensors.
Professional Advisory
Garage door openers can involve spring-loaded doors, moving drive systems, low-voltage safety circuits, and internal electrical parts. If the repair involves power diagnosis, failed safety devices, a door that will not balance, or an opener that moves unpredictably, have a qualified garage door technician inspect the system before returning it to service.
