Possible Causes

Failed light relay on Marantec board, Wall console light button latched on, Shorted light control wiring, Incompatible bulb causing feedback

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the opener before inspecting wiring or board.

  • Check wall console: Press the light button on the Marantec wall station to toggle the light. Ensure it is not stuck.
  • Test with bulb removed: Remove the bulb and see if the light output circuit still shows voltage (requires meter). If so, the relay is likely stuck.
  • Try different bulb: Install a manufacturer‑approved bulb type and wattage.
  • If always on: Replace the Marantec control board to correct the stuck light output.
