What's this?

I have an old garage door opener, and it occasionally does that

Have a replacement ready to go once it fails, but several months ago it started working flawlessly.

Hoo here. Need Lounge advice. My Zima family may not be of much help. -- Spudnut 06/18/2019 8:31PM

I had a similar issue - it was the safety sensors -- VTENGR 06/19/2019 12:11PM

You could do what Vienna started but that may be too complicated for hoo -- HOKIE 06/19/2019 12:01PM

Agree with most of what's been said so far, especially the fancy mustard -- jmanatVT 06/19/2019 09:45AM

Mine did that. Wasn"t balanced. ** -- TomTurkey 06/19/2019 09:43AM

Try spraying the rails the wheels on and the spring with WD40 -- Vienna_Hokie 06/18/2019 11:24PM

Thx. Will do ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 07:45AM

Don't! (see above first) ** -- PhotoHokieNC 06/19/2019 08:08AM

I meant the post of mine at 8:08am today. Shows as above on my screen. -- PhotoHokieNC 06/19/2019 08:54AM

Ahhh, thx! ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 08:56AM

I think I fixed all the typos and grammatical errors, so you can read it -- PhotoHokieNC 06/19/2019 08:57AM

Agree with this but wouldn't use WD40. Recommend lithium grease or silicon ** -- GretnaHokie 06/19/2019 07:22AM

Thx. I have silicon spray. Will try that ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 07:46AM

Possibly a group swayed against it after the NCAA BB wins.** -- PhotoHokieNC 06/19/2019 08:48AM

Spread some Gray Poupon on it, hoo boy. -- King Jaffe Joffer 06/18/2019 8:36PM

That kind of problem would cause the led's on the sensors to flash. ** -- IB4TECH 06/19/2019 10:07AM

We bought the house 5 years ago. Sensors were not -- Spudnut 06/18/2019 9:06PM

To be fair, I had a jar in the car. ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 08:52AM

I could have used that at Denny's the other nite ** -- Brown Water 06/19/2019 09:00AM

Were you the one Hoo hacked my mastercard?????? ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 09:57AM

A couple of America's Diner Doubles. Delish. But no Grey Poupon! ** -- Brown Water 06/19/2019 09:59AM

Would not have worked. My picture is on the wall as customer of the year(s) ** -- Spudnut 06/19/2019 10:53AM
