Andy, I went through the entire binding process with all the combinations. There is no flashing light on either of the remotes during this process. The base has a strong light which blinks then goes steady when the binding is complete but there is no light indication on the remotes. The only time I see any activity on the remote is when I remove the plug from the remote when the base is bound and plug it back in. The remote lite flickers for a half second then goes away. Larry
