Flashing is an active message: the device is alive but wants to tell you something. Usually a weak power supply or a disturbed connection is behind it.
Quick diagnosis: power first, then connection
Replace the batteries first, as a large share of flashing messages is simply an undervoltage warning. If it keeps flashing, test the connection from a short distance to the vehicle and check that the receiver unit is switched on and ready.
Reading the flash pattern correctly
The meaning of individual flash sequences differs by version, the table in the Meiller manual of your system is authoritative. Note the rhythm and the situation in which the flashing occurs, that lets the message be classified quickly, also by phone with us.
If the flashing remains
A device that keeps flashing despite fresh batteries and an intact receiver unit points to an internal fault. Send the control in for diagnosis, we fully test the electronics and radio section and get back to you with a clear assessment.
Frequently asked questions
The display only flashes when pressing a button, is that normal?
A short signal on a button press can be part of the normal feedback. Compare the behaviour with the description in the manual of your version.
Flashing and weak range together, what does that mean?
This combination strongly suggests weak batteries. Replace all of them at once with brand quality, in most cases both issues are gone afterwards.
Can the flashing come from the receiver unit?
Yes, a disturbed link can appear as a message on the transmitter. The cross-test with a second remote narrows down the side.
