Xhorse Masker Garage Remote Manual: How to Delete Code and Clone Remote

Xhorse Masker Garage Remote supports code deleting, remote cloning, frequency setting, and data recovery.

And here is a tutorial on how to delete the code and clone the remote.


First, let's look at the basic structure of Masker Garage Remote:


Slide down the cover, and you can see the LED light, "Up" button, "Down" button, "Lock" button, and "Pause" button.

Next, let's do code deleting.


Before remote cloning, we need to check the status of the remote control to make sure the code has cleared.


Keep pressing any button, and the LED light is always on, which means the code has not been cleared.

Then how to delete the code?


Press and hold the "Up" and "Down" buttons at the same time, and you can see the LED light turns on.

When the light turns off, release the buttons.

Press and hold the "Pause" button until the light goes off.

Then release the button.

Now the light will flash once and then go out quickly when we press any button on the remote.


It means the code is deleted.


Then last, let's start remote cloning.


There are three steps.


Press and hold the button, and the remote will enter the cloning mode.

The LED light will flash, and then go out.

xhorse-garage-remote-manual-delete-code and-clone-remote-6
