Why a Liftmaster Opener Brakes or Fails
Commun Liftmaster Garage Door Opener Repairs in Chicago
Main factor your Liftmaster opener breaks or fails is the usage or wear and tear. The weight of your door will also count. The vast majority of Liftmaster repairs are based on the age of your opener and the number of times you use your door a day.
Gear and Sprocket Opener Repair in Chicago
The most common Liftmaster repair is the replacement of its gear and sprocket system. If you notice your Liftmaster is making a grinding sound and the chain hangs more than it should, you need a gear and sprocket repair.
Expect your Liftmaster to need a new gear every 12 to 15 years for normal use of your garage door on daily basis (4 cycles or so).
Broken Chain
In rear cases your chain will break when your door is too heavy or there is an obstruction that will stop the door on its way up or down. When chain breaker you may need a whole new bar and chain mechanism.
Faulty Circuit Board
Faulty circuit boards on your Liftmaster will cause the opener to stop working or open the door on its own. Sign of a faulty logic board are:
- opener doesn’t respond to the remote and wall control
- door opens on its own
- faulty safety sensors
- aren’t able to program new remotes
Faulty Safety Sensors
Safety sensors on your Liftmaster help in keeping you and your family safe. They are placed about 6 inches above the floor on each side of your door. They share a light beam and when this beam gets interrupted the door won’t close. If you, your kid or pet are in under the door or walking through, safety sensors will prevent to damage.
Some times they are not aligned and aren’t able to communicate so the door won’t close.
A simple realigning of both sensors might solve your problem with our having to pay for a Liftmaster repair call.
Steps to fix your Liftmaster Opener Safety Sensors
- find the amber color light on one of the sensors
- point it in the direction to the other one.
- go to the next sensor
- point it to the sensors with the amber light
- when you see a green light turning on and staying solid, tighten and secure in that exact spot.
- wiggle your green light sensor around to unsure that even if it moves as the door shakes it, it stays in range.
