      First, inspect the door control and its wires for any shorts, such as staples in the wire; replace the wire if needed. Alternatively, disconnect the wires at the door control and touch them together. If the garage door opener activates, the door control should be replaced. If it still doesn't activate, disconnect the door control wires from the garage door opener and briefly short across the red and white terminals with a jumper wire. If the garage door opener then activates, the door control wires need to be replaced.

      Begin by checking the cable tension monitor. Also, inspect for any obstructions that might be interfering with the door's operation. Pull the emergency release handle and manually operate the door. If you find it unbalanced or binding, it's best to contact a trained door systems technician. Finally, clear any ice or snow from the garage floor where the door closes.

      Begin by checking the cable tension monitor. If the garage door opener lights are blinking, inspect the safety reversing sensors. If it is a new installation and the garage door opener lights don’t blink, repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
