Kinda-sorta, but probably not.

Anything that has a stand-by mode, a built-in clock, A LED shining or anything like that will use a littlepower as long as it's plugged in.

It'll use a lot more power while actually being used, but it's possible that all that time on stand-by together will require as much energy as a few moments of usage.

A blender or a can opener are usually simple devices that don't have any clocks or indicator lights, so they are quite unlikely to use any power while in stand-by mode. A TV however will pull a few watts even if it isn't turned on.

It should be in the manual. I have an acura and this is what I had to do. Have your car in the garage, unplug the garage door opener. Hold the button in your car until it blinks fast that resets everything. Once is does hold down the button you want use to open the garage. Plug the garage door opener back in and the bottom should work. It took a few seconds after I plugged it in to work. Hope it works for you...
