  • 1. Garage Door Wont Close The very first sign
    of any issue with your garage door sensor is when
    the door wont close. If the door opens smoothly
    but has difficulty in closing, there is a problem
    with the door sensor.

  • 2. Photo-Eye Sensor Lights Generally, photo-eye
    sensors on the track of your door are around
    6-inches above the ground. One of the two garage
    door sensors indicates green light, and the other
    one shows a red LED light. The green light means
    sending of the beam of light, whereas red light
    shows that its receiving the light. But if
    anything is wrong with the sensor, these lights
    either start blinking or go out. This means
    something is interrupting the signal between the
    sensors or garage door sensor lights are not at
    the same level.

  • 3. Sensor Lenses If you stay on a busy street
    and leave the garage door open quite often, the
    sensor lenses are likely to accumulate dirt and
    dust. Since the garage door sensors are small,
    they are likely to get dirty with time and it can
    further stop sending a signal when operating the
    door. To deal with this issue, you must remove
    the dust from the sensor around the garage door.

  • 4. Sensor Power Supply If your garage door
    sensors show a green light, it means there is
    nothing wrong with the power supply. If both
    lights of these sensors are off, it means theres
    no power supply. But when the power is
    established, the garage door sensors become
    operational again.

  • 5. Sensor Wire Damage Wire damage is another
    issue with sensors on the garage door. To resolve
    this issue, you must inspect all your wires
    attached to the sensor on the back of its opener.
    If the wires are unwoven and tangled, you can
    check if any of them are twisted or broken. If
    wires cannot be repaired, you need to consider
    garage door sensor replacement.
