Possible Causes
Burned-out bulbs, Incompatible LED bulbs, Corroded light socket contacts, Failed light relay on control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before changing bulbs or touching the socket.
Steps:
- Replace bulbs: Install new, Genie-approved bulbs within the wattage limit. Avoid rough-service or high-EMI bulbs.
- Inspect socket: Check for corrosion or burned contacts. Clean lightly or replace the Genie light socket assembly if damaged.
- Test manual light button: Use the wall console light button (if equipped). If the light never turns on, suspect the relay or board.
- Replace control board: If sockets and bulbs are good but lights never operate, replace the Genie control board.
