How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and release the door. Keep hands clear of springs and cables.
- Manual test: Move the door slowly by hand and feel for the point of resistance. Mark the location.
- Inspect that area: Check tracks, hinges, rollers, and panels at the marked position. Look for dents, screws protruding into the track, or twisted hinges.
- Correct obstruction: Remove any foreign objects, straighten minor track dents, and tighten or replace faulty hinges.
- Re‑test: Once the door moves smoothly by hand through the full travel, reconnect the operator and test automatic operation.
