garage door opener open by itself

My garage door opener is Wayne Delton Quantum 3316. Last week, one remote controller does not work, so I re-active it by press coding, and it works again. But, one trouble comes out, the garage door will open automatically w/o press any control bottom. I removed battery from remote controller, but door still open automatically without press any controller open bottom sometime (It looks it open by itself afternoon most time). Any idea? Is it possible there is self time setting to open door by itself or somebody near me has same code to open the doors.

Code the same is unlikely... I would suspect something wrong with the wall station or wiring. Because of it's age, I can't really find much...but I would reprogram the wall station...or disconnect it completely and see if the problem keeps happening.

It is possible, since we don't know your location, that some sort of new radio or radar installation is overloading the electronics and causing it to open. This used to be pretty common before the security codes and different remote frequencies were implemented.

I do have two remote controls. Before this situation happens, one of two works well for years. After I activate another one this time, this situation happens same day (door automatically open). When I activate another one this time, I also tried to activate another old wall station, but this work station does not work, no matter how to do. Is there any connection between two?

1. I have three remote controllers. one of three controllers works well for years. This time, I activated another two remotes, which did not work before activating and they are working by test. I have also activated wall station, but it did not work. The garage door open automatically by itself after I tried to activate two remotes and one work station. Is there connections between this procedures.
2. As your suggestions, I disconnect all activated controllers, only one which works for years, same situation happens.
