PROBABLE CAUSE & SOLUTION
1. Have you disengaged all door locks? Review Step 9, page 16.
2. Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn't light,
check fuse box or circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)
3. Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait 15
minutes. Try again.
4. Is there a build-up of ice or snow under door? Door may be frozen to ground.
Remove any obstruction.
5. Remove bell wire from opener terminal screws. Short red and white terminals by
touching both terminals at same time with a piece of metal (screwdriver or coin). If
opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection at door control button or a short
under staples.
1. Is door control button lit? If not, refer to No. 5 above.
2. Are wiring connections correct? Review Step 7, page 15.
1. Is any door control push button flashing? Your opener needs to relearn the code.
Follow the instructions located on the opener end panel.
2. Does the battery test light glow when remote push button is pressed? If not, replace
the battery.
3. On multi-function remotes, did you press the push button selected to operate the
garage door opener?
4. Was the receiver programmed to match the remote control?
5. Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all transmitters.
1. Change the location of the remote control in the car. A metal garage door,
foil-backed insulation or metal garage siding will reduce the transmission range.
2. Make sure antenna on the back panel of opener extends fully downward.
1. Make sure that the remote control push button is not stuck in the "on" position.
2. Remove bell wire from opener terminals and operate from remote control only. If
this solves the problem, the door control is faulty (replace), or there is a short or
broken wire between door control button and opener.
1. Is something obstructing the door?
2. If door opens at least 1.5m, travel limits may need to be increased. One turn equals
5cm of travel. See page 20.
REPEAT SAFETY REVERSE TEST after the adjustment is complete.
3. If door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the
UP FORCE. See page 21.
REPEAT SAFETY REVERSE TEST after the adjustment is complete.
1. Is something obstructing the door?
2. Review the Travel Limits Adjustment Chart on page 20.
REPEAT SAFETY REVERSE TEST after any adjustment of door arm length,
close force or down limit.
1. Check the Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is
blinking, correct alignment.
