Remote and garage door opener not communicating.
You may need to replace the battery in the remote control. Most usually these will be double A ones. You may have to reprogram it when you try it again. You should be able to get the information on Google by typing in the make of the inside unit in your garage. Your remote may have this info on it as well. You should be able to pull up instruction on how to reprogram your unit.
Garage door won't go down all the way and then reverses to open
Check that the wheels and bearings are turning freely and that the door is not cocking to one side when closing. If the wheels are catching because of bad bearings, because the tracks are out of true or because the door is not staying straight in the tracks, the motor thinks that the door is hitting a car or a person and reverses. One thing to try: disengage the motor and try moving the door through the full traverse. Most automatic doors have a pull-cord that disengages the door from the motor. CAUTION: You may need a friend to help with the door, because it could be surprisingly heavy,.

Seems like you either have your photo cells out of alignment or disconnect from operator or a short in the photo cells wires.... make sure the you can see the green LED light on one and a amber/red on the other at the same time with no flashing or flickering. The green represents power supply to units and other color represents alignment, both are a must! so make sure you see them on solid without blinking or flickering.

Multifunctional control panel will not work when i tried to synchronize door control and light bulb on garage door does not light up?
I'm not familiar with the whisper drive but I would start with the most obvious place for a problem. There are two units at teach side at the bottom of the door jam. They have to be lined up for the door to work. This is the most frequent problem I have found because they are close to the floor and can be bumped out of alignment. Check to see if one of them have been moved. Most of these little plastic units have a plastic locator pin in the top of the unit. these pins snap into the mounting bracket. If the unit has been bumped just move the pin until it snaps back into the bracket. I'm not a contractor but I have seen this happen a lot with friends and family. Ask the easy questions first. Is it plugged in? Is the breaker in the power panel tripped? Good luck
