After a 2 1/2 hour power failure and opening the garage door with the battery there is a 4-2 error code. How do I clear it? Nothing is wrong with the door, it works perfect except for the error codes.

The 4-2 error code on a garage door opener typically indicates a problem with the safety sensors. These sensors are designed to prevent the door from closing if there is an obstacle in the way. If the sensors are not functioning properly, the door may not close, or it may close and then immediately re-open.

To clear the 4-2 error code and reset the garage door opener, you can try the following steps:

Check the sensors: Make sure that the sensors are properly aligned and not blocked by debris or other objects.

Check the wiring: Make sure that the wiring to and from the sensors is secure and not damaged.

Check for loose or damaged components: Make sure that all of the components in the safety sensor system are properly installed and not damaged.

Reset the opener: You can reset the garage door opener by unplugging it from the power outlet and then plugging it back in. This will reset the opener and may clear the error code.

If you are unable to clear the error code with these steps, it may be best to seek the help of a professional garage door technician. They will be able to diagnose the problem and recommend the appropriate repair.

Installed Craftsman 1/2 chaindrive. During adjustment, the door goes up/down but will not autoprogram. A service tech said motherboard is confused and unit should be replaced

there are many of these on the market they all work the same way.. home depot and lowes use to sell them (probably still do) ... they receive the wireless signal from the clicker and are hard-wired into the wall switch to open and close the garage door.. i've used them many times and they work .. they also sell these on ebay and amazon great https://www.homedepot.com/p/Genie-Universal-Garage-Door-Opener-Remote-Upgrade-Kit-Add-Modern-Intellicode-Security-To-Your-Old-Garage-Door-Opener-GIRUD-1T/100654121#overlay

Keypad drains batteries rapidly

keypads on average have a battery life expectancy of 3-5 years depending on the usage , if your garage is a main thouroughfare like so many homes are they will last for 1-2 years , so what i would sugest is use top grade duracell batterys for this keypad and also check your keypad at nighttime just to see if the pad is lit up , generally when you use it it will stay lit for approx20-30 seconds and shut off , if one of the rubber keys are warped and are stuck from heavy usage ,you would never notice it and your lights in the keypad can be running day and night , thats why i ask you to check it at night! if the lights are off when you approach it then this would not be the issue but it,s one way to find out what,s causing your batteries to run down so fast ,I would definetly try that first Forrest , 2-3 weeks is unheard of and you might even be able to get a replacement from the manufactuer for being possibly defective , Hope i was able to help you with some idea,s Forrest and if you thought i was helpful please leave me a nice rating Sincerely Glenn Mayer

Craftsman Garage Door remotes do not work. 139.663953

On the rear of your motor unit near where all those white wires go you will find the smart/learn button. Hold the button down on your remote and press and immediately release the smart/learn button. Do this with all your remotes.

I have a liftmaster 102-1499A 03/2006 and

The code for the LED flashing 5 times is " Motor overheated or possible RPM sensor failure. Unplug to reset".
The RPM sensor is a small printed circuit just in front of the motor.

If the flashing is the main light and it is flashing 10 times then it is a door sensor problem. Make sure the are pointed at one another.

My door still won't close after manual release

Hi, Some garage openers have a string/lever next to the main box that needs to be set in it's up-position in order to use the remote. Please check that this is the case for your garage-door opener and trying using the remote afterwards. Otherwise, we might have to factory reset the remote before reprogramming it. Thank you.

Help to fix elevated casement window winder please?

Question edited for clarity and fix typos. Question moved to 'Windows - Building Materials' category. The winder mechanisms come in many types, but there are usually two screws hiding under plastic cover plugs on the locking handle or the crank handle mounting plate. You can normally pop them out with the tip of a knife or a jewelers screwdriver. As far as lubricant goes, use a light machine oil like '3-in-One', or I use a dry silicone spray called Jigaloo available in Canadian Tire or from Amazon. Don't use WD40.

12 beeps-which means, door travels with abnormal speed. Only 1 1/2 yrs old. not sure how to fix.

Hi Shawn , the first thing I would check is the wheels and tracks for there straightness and alignment, & to just to make sure there's no debris in track but mostly to ensure all the wheels are greased and moving freely not only at the bearing image-dgd3mqdlwrxhi0ktu44qgfbm-2-0.jpg But in the shaft as well image-dgd3mqdlwrxhi0ktu44qgfbm-2-2.jpg The next suspect is the tension springs over head image-dgd3mqdlwrxhi0ktu44qgfbm-2-5.jpg Door down = tight spring Door up. = loose spring Caution; these are very strong and very dangerous ; Caution these springs are assisting, to make the door feel weightless to the opener. If you are handy with tools then you can make a very minor adjustment (+or-) to these springs which will adjust your door movement speed to fine tune theses springs. I am assuming you have these types of springs, now there are 3-4 different types wich you should either repost a new question or follow up with me in the comments GoodLuck!!!
