Sears 139.53930D - Manual (Page 34)

Your garage door opener is programmed with
self-diagnostic capabilities. The “Learn” button/diagnostic
LED will flash a number of times then pause signifying it
has found a potential issue. Consult Diagnostic Chart below.
Safety reversing sensors
wire open (broken or
disconnected).
OR
Safety reversing sensors
wire shorted or
black/white wire
reversed.
Door controi or
wire shorted.
Safety reversing sensors
siightiy misaiigned
(dim or flashing LED).
Motor overheated or
possible RPM sensor
failure. Unplug to reset.
Motor Circuit Failure.
Replace Receiver
Logic Board.
Symptom: One or both of the Indicator lights on the safety sensors do
not glow steady.
• Inspect sensor wires for a short (staple in wire), correct wiring polarity (black/white
wires reversed), broken or disconnected wires, replace/attach
as needed.
• Disconnect all wires from back of motor unit.
• Remove sensors from brackets and shorten sensor wires to 1 -2 ft (30-60 cm) from
back each of sensor.
• Reattach sending eye to motor unit using shortened wires. If sending eye indicator
light glows steadily, attach the receiving eye.
• Align sensors, if the indicator lights glow replace the wires for the sensors. It the
sensor indicator lights do not light, replace the safety sensors.
Symptom: LED is not lit on door control.
• Inspect door control/wires tor a short (staple in wire), replace as needed.
• Disconnect wires at door control, touch wires together. If motor unit activates,
replace door control.
• If motor unit does not activate, disconnect door control wires from motor unit.
Momentarily short across red and white terminals with jumper wire. If motor unit
activates, replace door control wires.
Symptom: Sending indicator light glows steadily, receiving indicator tight is
dim or flashing.
• Realign receiving eye sensor, clean lens and secure brackets.
• Verify door track is firmly secured to wall and does not move.
Symptom: Motor has overheated; the motor unit does not operate or
troiley is stuck on stop bott = Motor unit hums briefiy; RPM Sensor =
Short travel 6-8" (15-20 cm).
• Unplug unit to reset. Try to operate motor unit, check diagnostic code.
• If it is still flashing 5 times and motor unit moves 6-8" (15-20 cm), replace RPM
sensor.
• If motor unit doesn’t operate, motor unit is overheated. Wait 30 minutes and retry. If
motor unit still will not operate replace logic board.
Symptom: Motor unit doesn’t operate.
• Replace logic board because motor rarely fails.
