What s a mother to do. When i press the button to open my garage door it goes up but then stops after it raises about a foot or so. Well sometimes it does. Their purpose is to detect an object in the way of the door and reverse or disable the opener.

The problem is either due to a blocked path between the sensors dirty eyes loose wires at the sensors or at the motor head or just bad sensors. Garage door starts down then stops and goes back up or safe t beam system malfunction. The first thing to check are the electric eyes that are located on either side of the door frame. There are sensors of course that tell the door when to stop so i tried cleaning those and the problem went away.

You might need to consider replacing it if your door is not working properly or you may purchase a new opener. Check if the limits are properly set. Make sure only the safe t beams that came with this garage door opener are installed. Adjust the limits as needed.

Genie garage door only moves a few feet and stops and when you push the button again it moves a few inches or a foot genie garage door only moves a few feet and stops and when i just had my driveway gate opener receiver replaced. If it is a new installation check the postion of the door arm. If there s anything stuck to the bottom of the door such as a leaf a small piece of paper. Then sometimes it reverses at the bottom sometimes it reverses right after it starts moving.

The logic board receives and responds signals to any remote. If your garage door is closing fully and then reversing to open again then it may be due to a problem with the close limit switch. If it still reverses raise the door halfway and stop it. You will find that the door will only move an inch or so in the close direction and reverse.
