Compare Garage Door Opener



Question:
My 16 year old 1/2 HP Sears Craftsman stopped working a few weeks ago. Only a faint click and slight movement when I pressed the button. I would like to hear from anyone who has or have used Sears Craftsman in he past. - What is the average life span for this model? - Any comment on Genie and or Cameron in comparison to Craftsman?

Answer:
i got a 30 yr old craftsman garage door opener.. i fixed it many times, even had to make parts for it as they were not available anymore.. had to solder the board when the light would not work as the solder joint melted the solder out... had to cut the shaft down when a washer with teeth on it chewed up the shaft where it attaches to the opener(screw drive).. take the remote out and replace some parts in it as they no longer manufacturer the model i have and dont make them on that frequency anylonger.. if i could not do all this then i would have to buy a new one.... but as long as it works OK i will be working on it for the next 30 yrs.
