Garage Not Closing Light Blinking

If you're having trouble closing your garage door and the light is blinking, there are a few possible causes. Here are some of the most common issues and how to fix them:

1. The sensors are misaligned. The sensors are located on either side of the garage door opening. They use a beam of light to detect when something is in the way of the door. If the sensors are misaligned, the door will not close.

To fix this, you will need to adjust the sensors so that they are aligned with each other. You can do this by loosening the screws that hold the sensors in place and then moving them until the lights on the sensors are both lit. Once the sensors are aligned, tighten the screws to hold them in place.

2. The sensors are dirty. If the sensors are dirty, they may not be able to detect objects in the way of the door. To fix this, you will need to clean the sensors with a soft cloth. Be sure to clean both the lenses on the sensors and the emitter.

3. The wires to the sensors are damaged. If the wires to the sensors are damaged, the sensors will not be able to communicate with the garage door opener. To fix this, you will need to replace the damaged wires.

4. The garage door opener is not getting power. If the garage door opener is not getting power, it will not be able to close the door. To fix this, you will need to check the circuit breaker or fuse that supplies power to the garage door opener. If the circuit breaker or fuse is tripped, reset it. If the circuit breaker or fuse continues to trip, you may need to call an electrician to fix the problem.

5. The garage door opener is faulty. If the garage door opener is faulty, it will not be able to close the door. To fix this, you will need to replace the garage door opener.

If you have tried all of these troubleshooting tips and the garage door still will not close, you may need to call a professional garage door repair technician.
