Garage Door Not Opening With Remote Control or Mounted Button

RE: Garage Door Not Opening With Remote Control or Mounted Button Post by JulesG (1) | (08/10/2008) Contact I have the same problem as posted by John Abbott i.e. the motor would only move the door a few inches before reversing, as if the electric eye or safety reverse was working. Tried increasing the downward force, howver, no improvement. Any suggestions for fixing this problem? Jules Report Spam or Abuse RE: Garage Door Not Opening With Mounted Button Post By Bill (Guest Post) (02/14/2008) I have a Genie 1/2 HP garage door opener. The wall mounted switch does not work. All transmitters will open and close. Checked the wires from wall mount to motor for breaks nothing found. Purchased a swith (thought old one was bad), no change. How can I determine what part needs to be replaced with out draining my wallet one part at a time Report Spam or Abuse Door Opener reversing following replacement of gear and spro Post By John Abbott (Guest Post) (01/26/2008) Hi, I just replaced the gear and sprocket assembly on my Sears 1/2 hp opener. Installation was easy, but when I hooked up the unit to the door, the motor would only move the door a few inches before reversing, as if the electric eye or safety reverse was working. I adjusted the travel screws and safety reverse, with no effect. I then repeated the installation. When I tested the unit on my bench, the same thing happened--the motor reversed itself after just a few seconds. Did I miss something in the installation?

I could shut/open the door manually but the remote would not work because something was blockng the reader thing. Its a safety device incase anybody gets stuck as the door is going down Report Spam or Abuse RE: Garage Door Not Opening With Remote Control or Mounted Button Post By suzanne (Guest Post) (08/31/2006) my remotes and garage button will not operate the door.

Good luck Report Spam or Abuse RE: Garage Door Not Opening With Remote Control or Mounted Button Post By Eleanor. (Guest Post) (04/20/2005) I sorta have the same problem , only my garage door wont go down using the remote. but will with the switch wired on the wall inside the garage. Any sugestions out there for me. Other than calling a garage door repair man.

No longer having the correct code to correspond from the remote to the actual opener unit. Can be reset. But if the button hard-wired to the wall doesn't operate the unit either, then I guess this wouldn't be your problem. Might help someone else, though. Report Spam or Abuse
