| Sounds like a broken door spring. Have you tried releasing the opener and operating the door by hand? |

| Have a wall switch that the green light is flashing constantly. Only thing recently done was battery changed in keyless remote. Both door sensors are lit 1 green, 1 yellow. No manual left by previous owners. |

| If you have a wall switch with 3 buttons, hold the one in that has a lock icon on it for 3 seconds and release. Other than the flashing light what problem are you having? |

| I just replaced the battery in my garage door opener remote, but I don't know if it's the right size. I replaced it with an Energizer 2032 3.0 volt and it doesn't work. Sears Canada 139.53681B There are 2 additional circular buttons (smaller than the big thumb button) on the remote. None of them are labeled. Do I need to synch this remote somehow by pressing one of these buttons for a couple seconds or something? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance! |

| Make sure you didn't install the battery upside down. You shouldn't need to do anything more. Was it working before you replaced the battery? |
