Craftsman Garage Door Opener

chris_rossbach
15 years ago

First, thank you to the people who run this site and forum, and to the people who respond to the posts.

I have two Craftsman 1/2 HP GDO's model 53674 SRT2. GDO 1 works great, remote, keypad, etc. GDO 2 opens with wall switch and remote but will only close with wall switch pressed until the door is closed. The light is flickering on receiving eye. I have tried adjusting the eye...no luck. The light still flickers and same problem exists. Is it safe to assume that I need a new kit? Is there something else I can try before I spend the $50 on a new kit?

Thanks again. It is forums on-line like this that has saved me hundreds of dollars in repair costs in and around my house.

Chris
