Garage Door Won T Open From Outside With Remote

Check the battery in your remote operator by walking into the garage holding it in your hand.

Garage door won t open from outside with remote.

Both remotes will open door from inside garage as will wall switch. Try installing a new battery and attempt to open the door again with the remote. Check to be sure the antenna is attached and if it is not hanging down from the unit move the antenna so it can catch the beam being sent by the remote. If the door opens the problem is likely a worn out battery in your remote.

Quickly test the quality of your opener s wiring by following these steps. Press the button as you observe a small blinking red light on the box where the chain enters and exits. My garage door remotes will not open door from the outside unless you are right in front of the door. I have replaced the battery on reprogrammed the remotes with no luck.

If that doesn t work and you still have a nonworking remote you may want to have a professional examine it.
