Even after putting new batteries in the remote the garage door still is not. If pressing the button on your garage door s remote control doesn t work check the batteries first. Some garage door receivers have a motor overload protector that shuts down with repeated attempts to open the door. If your remote works correctly check that the opener s antennae doesn t have any excess debris buildup is pointed toward the door and isn t broken.

Generally 30 minutes of inactivity will allow most models enough time to reset. When i returned from work today i pushed the button on my remote garage door opener but the door didn t budge. Simple but true the remote transmitter needs power to send a signal to your opener. Wait at least 30 minutes then try the console again.

Stand within 20 feet of your garage door and attempt pressing the button if your remote is further away from the door the signal won t be strong enough to prompt the door. Consequently the opener will not react to activation prompts if the settings are off and the garage door won t close.
