Just wanted to say- I’m a single, first time homeowner with not a lot of repair knowledge. After watching this video I was able to fix my door after adjusting the electrical wire in the sensor (the light was not on- no power) after a quick adjustment, light came on and garage door went down! THANK YOU SO MUCH, you saved me so much money!!🙂

Thank you for this video! The sensors were the issue for me—one was pointing the wrong way, probably from bumping it while taking out the trash bins. Your tips made it so easy to figure out, and now my garage door works perfectly! For anyone else watching, check out all the tips in this video—they’re a lifesaver!

I know without a doubt that G-D Himself brought me to this video! My garage door would not close and I had made an appt. for repair. My grandson literally prayed that He would show me what was wrong and that it would be something I could fix. Googled and your video came up. It was the sensor! Thank you so much!!!!

OMG...nailed it on the first try....It was a leaf blocking the sensor. You saved me you

I walked through the steps and fixed the garage door! Can’t wait for my not so handy husband to come home. Thank you!

I am so BEYOND grateful for this video. I can’t believe I fixed my garage 😂 it was a sensor that was loose and facing a different direction… I didn’t even KNOW those sensors were even there until this video. Thank you zillions for saving me a fortune that I definitely didn’t need to spend! Amazing

[reggiegilliam]

Thank you!! I was cleaning and didn’t realize I moved one of the lenses out of place. I was able to move it back into place and it now works again. Appreciate your video!

You're my figgin hero this morning! My garage door hasn't closed without me holding down the button until it's fully closed for MONTHS! LOL! Someone sweeping must have pulled the wire out from one of the sensors. I reconnected the wire and it closed just fine. Thanks sooo much for making this video! Free access to information is one of the most valuable and powerful things the inter webs have to offer us.
