Door opener problem

[RayIN]

New unit will fix the issue.

I have a Chamberlain garage door opener, about 15 years old. The problem is getting it to go down with a remote. I have one remote and one car both programmed for it.

It always goes up and down with the button in the garage. It always goes up with the remotes. It will sometimes go down with either the remote or the car but it’s less than 50% of the time. If I try and lower it with a remote and it doesn’t work it will go down with the button in the garage so I do think it’s the safety eyes.

Getting closer with the remote doesn’t help. I reprogrammed the remote and car, that helped for a day. I also read a CFL or LED can interfere with the signal. I have a regular rough service light bulb in it and taking it out doesn’t help.

It sounds like an issue with the safety sensors, which can sometimes be misaligned or dirty, causing intermittent operation. Try cleaning the sensor lenses and ensuring they’re properly aligned. Also, check for any obstructions in the sensor’s line of sight. If the problem persists, the sensors may need replacing.

No that’s not the problem. The problem was diagnosed and the opener replaced.

It seems the problem might be with the safety sensors — they could be dirty or out of alignment, leading to inconsistent performance. Try wiping the sensor lenses clean and making sure they’re correctly aligned. Also, look for any objects blocking their line of sight. If the issue continues, you may need to replace the sensors.

No, that wasn’t the issue. The real problem was identified after a proper diagnosis, and it turned out that the opener itself was faulty. Once the issue was confirmed, the opener was replaced with a new one, and everything has been working smoothly since then.

I always mount the sensors above the operator on the mounting brackets, aimed at each other. about a foot apart. Never had a problem with that setup. No kids or animals here.

Then they aren’t safety sensors?

Yes they are, but are a pain in the ass if they get dirty or a bit of debris get on the lenses.

They may be sensors but not safety sensors the way you installed them.

The industry standard is 6” from the floor. Any additional sets can be mounted anywhere the customer wants. Fire stations usually have one to see the basket on the ladder truck and one to see the front bumper of all the trucks.
