Resolved Question: I am having a problem with my garage door opener?

The remotes and keypad don't work but the wall hardwired button does work, what do i need to do to get the keyboard and remotes working? the keypad doesn't require batteries and works for the other door and the remotes open 1 door but not this one (and have batteries). So basically, 2 ways of opening the doors, remote and keypad work for one door but not the other, but the wall button works for both. what do I do? more

Voting Question: Garage door opener not working?

I have single car garage installed with standard 1/2 hp motorized garage door opening system. I believe this is of Crafsman make system. There is remote with push button keypad. I have set four digit code for opening /closing of garage door. This was working fine for years ( 4 - 5 years) till yesterday. I tried several attempts but it failed and I re-check the code and I was pressing correct code. Then I checked the keypad battery inside and measured the voltage and it was fine. I even replace with new battery but still it does not work. Now my question here is - a) What should I do to open the door first ? b) Should I buy new key pad and set new code once the door is opened and I have access to motor unit with settings? c) Is there any other option you can think and advise?This keypad is old not under warranty, so no question of returning to sears. Even if I buy new from sears the new unit does not know the code I set in old one. For that I have to first open the garage door and from main unit set the code in newly purchase. So question remains here is how to open the door first? Secondly this is wireless unit as you mentioned but the pulling cord is inside the door. I am trying to first open the door so that some thing can be done to refreshing the code or buying new one and setting the code. Any one has better idea how to open the door first, as the unit (keypad) is not working and I am in fixed right now. more

Voting Question: Should we be concerned about this?

Our garage has a keypad. My step dad shuts it every night before he goes to bed (usually around ten or eleven) No one who knows our family uses the garage door, they all go to the side door or front door. For the past couple of mornings though the keypad has been open like somebody's been messing with it during the night. Every since the first morning it's been open, he's been even more careful about shutting it. Should we be concerned or taking any precautionary measures?It's not anyone in my family trying to sneak in or out, we have a loud garage and no one knows the key information except my parents. more

Hello, I have a Chamberlain garage door opener with 2 original remotes. I wanted to add a Chamberlain wireless keypad by the garage for easy access when riding a motorcycle.

Resolved Question: Garage door opener isn't working properly?

The remote AND the keypad I installed will not open the garage door. both the remote and the keypad will close the door, so i believe there must be a problem with the signal. it's almost like it cant get a signal through the garage door.

Resolved Question: How do I get rid of wasps around my house?

I've recently just moved here with my parents, which was around October. Being that time of the season, bug problems weren't really a problem in our new home. I have to admit, the house is gorgeous, but what made the exterior of it pretty were the flower and plants. Now, Spring is just coming up and as the flowers bloomed, so did the birth of all these bugs-- wasps in particular. Being a freshman in high school, I take the school bus home and walk back towards my house from my bus stop. Starting this week, I've taken notice of all the wasps/bees that flew around the driveway. And being as squeemish and girly as I can, be, I always freak out. What makes it worse is that the keypad used to open my garage door is located a foot right under the newly built wasps nest. Monday and Tuesday was great, but yesterday and today... I was chased down the street by a wasp. And now, I recently discovered that I was stung by one on my shoulder. It being a wasp or bee, I'm not quite sure yet. From what I've seen, it has long black and yellow wings, and a golden toned body. Help? more

Resolved Question: How can you DISABLE a built-in garage door opener in a vehicle of a former boyfriend?

My daughter had an abusive boyfriend who had her GDO programmed into his 2001(?) Infinity. We reset the GDO itself and reset the handheld remotes and keypad already. Last night, she found flowers and an "I'm sorry" note inside her garage. Apparently all he had to do was hide somewhere and wait for her to open and close her garage and it reset the code in his car. How can this be prevented? She's made some bad decisions concerning him in the past and going to the police now would be of little help. more

Resolved Question: Can program both garage door car transmitters but not keypad remote?

I have two Sears garage door openers that I installed when I bought my house. I was able to program two car remotes (using two buttons on each transmitter, one primary and one as secondary depending on whose car the remote was in) and one keypad. I only used one of the keypads on the "main" garage door since it was only necessary to be able to open one door when no car transmitter was present. I put the keypad for the second one on the shelf in case I had to replace the first. After replacing the battery in one car transmitter I started running into programming issues and here is where I stand: I can program both remotes for both garage door openers without a problem, however, when I try to program the keypad the system won't allow me to program the car transmitters. I read some posts and thought the roll over programming on the keypad was bad so I got the keypad off the shelf, the one I never used, and tried using it, to no avail. So as it stands, I can either have two working car transmitters and no keypad or a keypad and no car transmitters, but not both (or even one car transmitter and a keypad, tried that too.) Any ideas? It all worked at one point and since I used a keypad that had never been used I don't believe it's a bad keypad and since I can program both car transmitters I don't think it's those either. Thanks for your response. David more

Voting Question: Craftsman Garage Door Opener Malfunctioning?

Okay, I'm having an issue with my Sears Craftsman garage door opener. Not exactly sure of the model number, but can dig it up if that's necessary. Symptoms: 1) Door opens fine from either wall button or remote(s) 2) Door closes fine from remotes 3) Press and release the wall button, it starts down, and then stops and backs up like something is blocking the sensors. Sensor lights are green. 4) Press and HOLD the wall button and the door will close completely. 5) Close the door from any remote control (car, outside keypad) and it closes fine EVERY time. 6) Problem seems confined to the wall button. 7) Unconfirmed, but it looks to be an issue only at night. In other words, if there is sunlight spilling in the open door, the wall switch works fine. 8) Have cleaned the lenses on the sensors and, again, they are always GREEN, even when it's malfunctioning. Any help would be appreciated. more

Resolved Question: Have Craftsman garage door opener. Past 2 years, it has a mind of it's own, will open, but closing, not always?

Can hit keypad or button to close, but garage door will go back up, like the pet detectors activate and garage door will raise back to open position. I have cleaned AND detached the pet detectors and the garage door will still not close. Only way garage door will close is if you hold down button to activate garage door and continue to hold button til door is completely closed. If you let go of button in mid stream, garage door will return back to the open position. Has this unit gone bad, or can it be a easy fix. This situation lasts up to a few days, or it can last a few weeks, as I said, a mind of it's own! Please help! more

Resolved Question: garage door interference and more?

We've had several issues...they may be unrelated, but I'm doubting it so I'm listing them all. Our lights downstairs used to go in and out (now only one of 8 comes on and it's not bad bulbs - it's been suggested the ballasts are bad). We had AT&T U-verse TV for several months with no issues and for the past 5 months we've had nothing but trouble...having to reset our modem and all systems repeating resulting in 6 in-home services visits. Our wireless network is dropping in and out and is very unreliable. The two hard-wired to the internet have no issues, but anything on wireless is very up and down. Now our garage door opener only works using the remotes to open the door. The remotes will not open the door at all (neither will our outside keypad) and the pad by our door will not work to close it unless we hold it down until the door is completely closed. There is nothing obbstructing the door's path. Also, recently, anytime we try to use electrical outlets outside they work only for a few moments and then the reset buttons kick off. This has never been an issue before using the exact same equipment. Our landscaping lights are not working outside now either. What could be causing this? Is this electrical? Should we be contacting an electrician? I just don't know where to begin! An AT&T rep told me our compact fluorescent bulbs could be causing the problems. Could this really be when we've had those lights for more than two years and are only recently experiencing these issues? more

Voting Question: Do I have to have all doors closed to arm my house alarm?

I am installing an alarm system in my house (a GE Networx NX-6). And yes it is a little more complicated than I thought. But I think I have everything set up correctly, except for one problem. I can't arm my system unless all zones are "Ready", which means all perimeter doors must be closed and nothing sensing motion. I guess I am looking at feedback as to how other people's alarms work, and see if I need to look further into my manual. Does everyone else have to close all doors before they can arm their system? What if I have my garage door open and I want to leave, I should be able to arm the system, leave, then close my garage door from my car remote, right? It looks like right now I have to close my garage door, stand in front of the keypad until the motion detector stops sensing motion, then hit arm, then reopen my garage door, leave, and reclose my garage door. Sounds more like a hastle than a convenience to me. ThanksThat just doesn't seem to make sense to arm the system, then move to get out of the house which will trip the motion sensors, then I have to open my door to the garage, the overhead garage door, and leave the house then close the overhead garage door with my car remote. That just seems like a pain in the butt to arm the thing!! more

Resolved Question: Craftsman garage door opener can not program keypad and remote to operate together?

Can not program both keypad remote to operate at the same time. I have a Craftsman garage door opener, and it is not allowing me to program both keypad and remote. A. Programming the remote 1) I hold the learn button for about 5 seconds to erase the memory. 2) Press/release the learn button (program light illuminates) 3) Hit the remote button (within 30 secs). 4) The unit light flashes to indicate it has accepted the remote code 5) The remote works 6) Press/Release learn button to program keypad (program light now on) 7) Enter 4 digit code and hold enter (within 30 secs) 8) Unit light does not flash to indicate code is accepted and keypad does not work. I can then erase all the codes by holding the learn button, and start programming the keypad first. It will then accept the keypad codes and operate the door. However, it will not accept the remote code. I am following the Craftsman manual to the tee! Also worth noting. I do not have a door control unit with a light or lock button so it cannot be programmed without the learn button. Thanks in advance for your help! more
