Possible Causes
No AC power to opener, Tripped GFCI or breaker, Faulty wall console, Defective main control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not attempt to force the door open if it is stuck. Use the emergency release only when the door is properly supported.
- Verify power: Plug a lamp into the opener’s outlet to confirm power. Reset any tripped GFCI or breaker.
- Check wall console lock: Some Skylink wall consoles have a lock or vacation mode. Ensure it is not engaged.
- Test with remote: If the wall console does nothing but the remote works, replace the Skylink wall console. If neither works and power is present, suspect the control board.
- Inspect board: Remove the opener cover and look for burnt components or a blown fuse. Replace the Skylink main control board if damaged.
