Possible Causes
Stuck wall button or shorted wall control wiring, Neighbor’s remote on same code (older fixed‑code systems), Interference triggering receiver, Defective control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Until resolved, disconnect power to the opener when away for extended periods to prevent unauthorized access.
- Inspect wall control: Remove the wall button and ensure it is not stuck or shorted. Disconnect the wall control wires at the opener and observe if the problem stops.
- Reprogram to rolling code: If using older fixed‑code remotes, upgrade to Marantec rolling‑code remotes and receiver if available.
- Clear and re‑learn remotes: Erase all remote codes from the opener and reprogram only your current remotes.
- If door still self‑activates with wall control disconnected: The receiver or logic board is likely faulty and should be replaced.
