Sears Garage Door Opener

9 years ago

Model #139.53674SRT2. Was working fine. Went out this morning and it opened fine. When I closed it, it went down all the way then came up about 6 inches. When I close it, it closes hard and the rail bends and it reverses and opens about 6 inches. I have adjusted the down limit clockwise several times and it does the same thing.

Any ideas? The openeris 13 years old.

Go to the Garages forum lots of garage door problems there. Go to top of this page & you will see at far left in light blue FORUMS & click on that & "Home Forums" click that & you will see it. Some of helpers install them so they know how to help you.

you need to adjust the limit switches rather gingerly. Search for an online copy of your manual. It might be time to call a repairman.
