Installation

STEP 16 Ensure the safety reversing sensors are aligned

The door will not close if the sensors have not been installed and aligned correctly.
When the light beam is obstructed or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse and the
garage door opener lights will flash ten times. If the door is already open, it will not close. The sensors
can be aligned by loosening the wing nuts, aligning the sensors, and tightening the wing nuts.
Check to make sure the LEDs in both sensors are glowing steadily. The LEDs in both sensors will glow
steadily if they are aligned and wired correctly.

If the receiving sensor is in direct sunlight,
switch it with sending sensor so it is on the
opposite side of the door.
