with a 9 volt battery
of
the
same type.

screws using
a key or screw-
driver. If opener now
operates, the
pushbutton
wires are
proba-
bly shorted or
broken.

by activating the obstruction
system that
is
controlled by the
open or close force adjustment
on the rear

the door than
the
opener can
supply this system will activate.
A common
cause is
a
poorly
operating door or an
obstruction, Review "Door Bal-
ance Test"
and "Open and

beam sensor is not
aligned and working correctly,

obstructs the door while
closing, it will reverse
and
open
-
