Product Overview
The LiftMaster 883LMW is a low-voltage wired door control button used inside the garage to operate select LiftMaster Security+ 2.0 garage door openers. It is a practical replacement when the original button is cracked, intermittent, missing, or no longer providing dependable push-button operation from the wall location.
This control is part of the Security+ 2.0 generation, which is commonly identified by a yellow learn button on the opener. On compatible openers, it provides simple door activation and is often used with myQ capable residential opener families. Correct generation matching matters because older LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, and private-label openers may use different wall control communication and will not respond correctly to this style of control.
For best results, compare the opener model number, learn button color, and existing wall station wiring before replacing the control. If the wall button failure is paired with no power at the opener, erratic opener operation, or damaged low-voltage wiring, the wall control may not be the only issue.

Technician Note
If a yellow learn button opener will not respond to the wall button, inspect the low-voltage wall control wire for staples, shorts, corrosion, or reversed/damaged connections before assuming the new control is defective.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the opener has a yellow learn button and Security+ 2.0 technology.
- Compare the existing wall control model or opener parts diagram.
- Verify the opener is not an older purple, red/orange, green, or dip-switch model.
- Inspect the wall control wire if the old button failed intermittently.
- Confirm whether the customer needs a simple push button or a multi-function/smart control panel.
Important Ordering Warnings
- Do not order this as a universal wall button for all LiftMaster openers.
- Not a direct replacement for older Security+, Billion Code, or dip-switch wall controls.
- Similar-looking wall controls may have different programming or diagnostic features.
Professional Advisory
Wall control replacement is usually low voltage, but opener power should be handled safely. If the opener behaves unpredictably, has damaged wiring, or has been exposed to water, have the system checked by a qualified garage door technician.
Product Questions and Answers
Will the 883LMW work with any LiftMaster opener?
No. It is intended for select Security+ 2.0 openers, commonly identified by a yellow learn button. Older learn button colors and dip-switch openers require different controls.
Is the 883LMW the same as the 883LM?
883LMW is commonly searched with 883LM as the white Security+ 2.0 wall control button. Match the opener generation and original part reference before ordering.
Can this wall button program remotes?
On compatible Security+ 2.0/myQ systems, this style of wall control is commonly used for no-ladder accessory programming. The exact programming steps depend on the opener model.
Why does my opener not respond after replacing the wall button?
The issue may be the opener generation, a shorted wall control wire, a bad connection at the terminals, or a problem in the opener logic board. Do not assume the wall button is the only failed part.
What learn button color should I look for?
Look for a yellow learn button on the garage door opener. Purple, red/orange, green, and dip-switch systems are older technologies and are not the correct match for this control.
