Stanley Garage Door Opener Problem



Question:
I have a Stanley Deluxe (Oooooo... Ahhhhhhhh) automatic garage door opener that has a problem. Symptoms: When you push the button either on the remote or wired button, the garage door will rise and then immediately go back down. If I hold the wired button down it will continue to rise until I let go and then it will go back down. The opener acts this way with the door attached or not attached so I know it isn't the door binding or anything like that. Can anyone diagnose this problem? Here are some numbers I found on the casing: LR-47799, 37-0203, 37-0213. Hopefully one of these is the model number. Also, there is a '8139' sticker on the circuit board that has the dip switches on it.

Answer:
Dip switches on the circuit board would suggest that this is an older model...and I'm assuming that it worked before on this door. There is a good chance that the circuit board is shot...time for a new operator. Without more info, it would be tough to diagnose. Have you checked the limit and sensitivity settings?
