5 Troubleshooting Tips: Remote Controlled Garage Door Opening
One of the most common reasons a garage door does not open is that the remote is not working. Here are a few reasons why the remote control won’t function and how to resolve them:
1. The lock button of your garage door opener is on
Solution: You need to unlock it following the manufacturer’s manual.
2. The battery of your garage door remote control is depleted
Solution: The battery needs to be replaced — followed by a possible need to reprogram the remote control.
3. The garage door remote control needs to be reprogrammed
Solution: Repair your garage door remote control by reprogramming it following the manufacturer’s instructions.
4. The remote control signal is interrupted by wireless items or LED bulbs
Solution: Clean the sensors or replace the bulb in the unit with a recommended brand; if those solutions don’t work, contact professional remote control garage door repair services to find a solution.
5. Wiring issues with the door opener motor
