Garage Door Openers Garage Door Opener Remote Problem
We Have An Older Craftsman 1/2 Hp Garage Door Opener With One Wired
Control In The Garage And Two Remotes. With One Remote One Has To Be
Within 15 Feet Or So Of The Opener To Make The Opener Work. With The
Other I Have To Get Out Of The Car And Wave The Remote In Front Of The
Window Of The Garage Door (standing Roughly 6-8 Feet From The Opener
Itself). I Have Tried Replacing The Batteries In Both Remotes To No
Effect, I.e., We Still Have To Be Very Close To The Opener In Order For
The Remotes To Work. This Is Very Irritating Given That Our Next Door
Neighbors' Remote Seems To Work On Their Opener From Two Or Three
Houses Away. Is There Any Adjustment That Can Be Made Without
Complicated Test Equipment To Possibly Remedy This Problem Or Am I
Better Off Getting A Professional To Look At This? All
Help/suggestions Greatly Appreciated.
