Holiday Programming I can check to verify what Holidays are programmed in to my Elite SL 3000 sliding gate opener. I need to verify the times and dayes this gate will be open. Ed

Hi Steve, it is not a pressure pad, it is a ground loop, which is just a wire going a few times in a loop that can pick up the magnetic mass of your vehicle. This 'change' in field is then fed to the control box when the car enters the field and the control box need to react on this. So it can be the ground loop wire or connections that are not working anymore, since it can be damaged by heavy vehicles, or the control box is not handling the information correctly. I would get a specialist to check this for you. Good luck.

I have a eg640 and my mother in law has the same eg640 for are gate

Hi please find above your user manual, all you need to know should be in there?

check the overload sensor it might be set too low.

the auto close has been set or the motor has been set up in reverse and it is auto reverseing,make sure the gate is opening up all the way, if it is not just help it along and see what happens.

if the motor cant rotate the shaft by itself, its likely a burned coil in the motor, but if the motor is running but not moving the gate then its a broken gear

if you take the covor off the unit and look at the motor their is a redbotton. press that back in and tru again
