Craftsman Opener tries to CLOSE when already closed

My 1/2 HP craftsman garage door opener is doing crazy things. Basically, when I push the door button or remote button, the closed garage door tries to CLOSE more and causes the track bar to bend upwards. For some reason it seems like the opener thinks the door is open and it is closing it more, which causes the bar to almost snap. I was told it was a bad sensor since the lights were off initally, i got new sensors, lights are back on, yet it will not open still, just attempt to close an already closed door. I lightened the force settings to 1, no change.

Any ideas? Thanks.
