Having a Problem?

Situation

Probable Cause and Solution

The opener doesn't operate from either the Wall Control or the remote control:

1.Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn'tlight, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)

2.Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on Page 11.

3.Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen to the ground. Remove any restriction.

4.The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.

5.Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait 15 minutes. Try again.

Opener operates from the remote

control, but not from the Wall Control:

The door operates

from the Wall Control, but not from the

remote control:

The remote control has short range:

Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:

The garage door opens and closes by itself:

The door doesn't open completely:

The door stops but doesn't close

completely:

1.Is the Wall Control lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener terminal screws. Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at the same time with a piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection at the Wall Control, a short under the staples, or a broken wire.

2.Are the wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, page 18.

1.If your model has the Lock feature, make sure the lock is Off.

2.Is any wall push button flashing? Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control code. Refer to Instructions on the opener panel.

3.Does the battery test light glow when the remote control push button is pressed? If not, replace the battery.

4.Program the receiver to match the remote control code.

5.Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.

1.Check the battery test light. If the light is dim, replace the battery.

2.Change the location of the remote control in your car.

3.Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of opener extends fully downward.

4.Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed insulation, or metal garage siding.

If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living quarters, the Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to minimize vibration to the house and is easy to install.

. Be sure that all remote control push buttons and battery indicator lights are off.

2.Remove the bell wire from the Wall Control terminals and operate from the remote control only. If this solves the problem, the Wall Control is faulty (replace), or there is an intermittent short on the wire between the Wall Control and the opener.

1.If the door has been working properly but now doesn'topen all the way, increase the up force. See page 29.

2.Is something obstructing the door? Remove the obstruction or repair the door.

3.If door opens at least 5 feet, the travel limits may need to be increased. One turn equals 2 inches of travel. See page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

Review the travel limits adjustment procedures on page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force or down limit.
