  To address a Genie Garage Door Opener that starts for no apparent reason: * First, examine the wires to ensure they are not cut, as staples can sometimes cut the insulation and cause shorts. Replace any shorted staples and wires. * If a remote control has been lost or stolen, erase all remote control codes from the receiver's memory and reprogram the remaining remote controls. * Finally, make sure that no buttons are stuck in the pushed-in position on the wall console or any of the remote controls.

  To troubleshoot a Genie Garage Door Opener that won't run from the wall control: 1. Check the Lock switch on the wall control. 2. Verify the power source: * For a grounded plug connection, plug a lamp into the electrical outlet used for the door opener. If the lamp lights, the power source is good. If it doesn't, check the fuse or circuit breaker. * For a permanent wiring connection, check the fuse or circuit breaker. 3. Inspect the connections at the power head terminals and the wall control.
