Check all remotes and replace the remote battery. Program the remotes to the powerhead.
What to do if my Genie 7053 starts down, then stops before it is closed, or only opens?
Check the Safe-T-Beam® wire connection at the powerhead and at the STBs. Check if the limits are properly set and adjust them if needed. Also, check CONTACT REVERSE and the garage door for binding. Finally, check the closing “FORCE” control.

Ensure the carriage is engaged with the chain/belt turnbuckle. Also, check to make sure the chain/belt is not broken or off its pulley.
Why does my Genie Garage Door Opener remote have less than 25 feet operating range or no operation?
Relocate the remote inside the car and/or point the remote at the garage door. Replace the battery and reposition the door opener antenna. Eliminate possible competing signals (radio, etc.). LED bulbs may be interfering with the remote signal.
