Having a Problem?SITUATION PROBABLE CAUSE & SOLUTION
OPENER DOESN'T OPERATEFROM EITHER WALL PUSHSUTTON OR TRANSMITTER
1. Have you disengaged all door locks? Review Step 8, Page 142. Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outleL If it
doesn't light, check fuse box or circuit breaker (Some outlets are con-trolled 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 toground. Remove any obstruction
5. Remove bellwire from opener terminal& Touch red and white screw ter-minals together with a jumper wire If opener runs, check for a faulty wireconnection at wall push button or a short under staples.
OPENER OPERATES FROMTRANSMITTER BUT NOT FROMWALL PUSH BUTTON
1. Is wall push button lit? If not, refer to No. 5 above and follow sameprocedure.
2_ Are wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, Pg,13.
DOOR OPERATES FROMWALL PUSH BUTTON BUT NOTFROM THE TRANSMITTER
1 Does the battery test light glow when transmitter push button is pressed?If not, replace the battery (Page 5 tells you how.)
2 If you have two transmitters and only one operates, review code settingprocedures on Page 19 Receiver and ALL transmitters must be set tosame code_
& Is transmitter(s) operating additional remote control devices? See codesetting procedures on Page 19
4. Did you press transmitter button designated to operate garage dooropener?
5 Re-program receiver(s) and ALL transmitters, Try setting ALL the codeswitches in plus, center or minus positions. If transmitter(s) works, youcan try a random code switch setting again, if you desire.
TRANSMITTER HASSHORT RANGE
1_ Check battery test light If the light is out, change the battery(Page 5 tellsyou how).
2. Change the location of transmitter in the car.3 A metal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding will reduce
transmission range.4. Check to be sure the antenna on the back panel of the opener extends
fully downward.
THE GARAGEDOOROPENSAND CLOSES SYITSELF
1 Is there a neighborwith a garage door opener using the same frequencycode? Change your code Review Page 19.
2. Check to makesure that the transmitter push button(s) is not stuckin the'down' position
3. Remove bell wire from opener terminals and operate from transmitteronly If this solves the problem, the wall push button is faulty (replace), orthere is a short or broken wire between push button and opener
DOOR DOESN'TOPENCOMPLETE_
1. Is something obstructing the door?2. If door opens at least 5 feet, travel limits may need to be increased One
turn equals 2 inches of travel See Pg 17. Repeat Safety Reverse Testafter adjustment is complete
3. If door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way,increase UP FORCE See Pg. 17 Repeat Safety Reverse Test after adjust-ment is complete
DOOR DOESN'T CLOSECOMPLETELY
1. Review the Travel Limits Adjustment Chart on Page 17. Repeat SafetyReverse Test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force ordown limit.
