Ryobi

Ryobi wall control is unresponsive, but remotes still operate the door.

Possible Causes
Broken wall control, Open circuit in wall control cable, Loose terminal screws at opener, Corroded wall control contacts
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power to the opener before working on low-voltage wiring.
- 1. Inspect wall control: Remove the wall control from the wall and check for cracked housing or water damage.
- 2. Check wiring at opener: Verify the two wall control wires are firmly attached to the correct terminals on the Ryobi opener head.
- 3. Bypass test: Temporarily connect a short piece of low-voltage wire directly between the wall control terminals at the opener. Briefly touch the ends together. If the door operates, the opener is fine and the wall control or its cable is bad.
- 4. Replace wall control or cable: If bypass works, replace the wall control first. If a new control still fails, run new low-voltage cable from the opener to the wall location.
