Garage door issue

Plastic coupling probably broke.

By the way, there's two sensors. Not just the one.

Ever know someone who did?

Cleaned the sensors tightened the connections wiring is in tact...

Mine did that, so I pulled the emergency lever and closed it to get me through the night and then opened it by hand again the next morning so I could go to work. That has been two years ago and I am still opening and closing the fricking thing by hand.

It has nothing to do with sensors if blinking fast at the button. Some sort of reset. Ours does it often. Usually resets after holding button down until door is closed.

This is how you can still close the garage even if the sensors are out. You cannot use the remote, you must use the direct wired switch, usually near your door going inside the house.
I'm not sure about this "resetting" anything, though.

Lubricate rollers

It does something with ours for some reason. Every once in a while, someone hits the lock on accident, but that's a separate issue. The majority of the time it is the left side garage door getting stuck in this "error" mode. I read up a long time ago and I don't remember if it was holding the button for x amount of seconds or what, but basically holding it down enough to close the door is long enough for it to reset and it works again.

When ours does it, you can click the remote and the hard wired button blinks fast for like 10 seconds. The door starts to close like a foot and opens back up. The holding it method fixes it.
