reprogram the opening sequence in the control box
it should that the first gate opens then the second gate opens a few seconds behind it
closing is the reverse
you can program that only one gate opens
you can also program that one gate is a entrance gate where it opens until you stop it , then when you have passed through , press it again and it closes
read the operating instructions and follow the programming procedures closely
No rail wont fit quite right. I would consider a liftmaster/craftsman/chaimberlain with yellow antenna wire. The liftmaster models are 8355 or 8550. Not sure how those model #'s translate to the craftsmans and chaimberlains. These units use 3 frequencies which are chosen automatically by opener radio. This gives you the best option to avoid interference. Genie typalically uses 2, but their fixed, so its a crapshoot to avoid interference. Do not confuse these frequencies with the rolling code feature which is a static frequency with only the "channels" changing.
Sometime it is difficult to delete genie from your system so if possible try to restore your system or install a new OS. If you need any guidance while during this process follow Apple Customer Service .
There are a couple of reasons this might happen. First make sure it closes by hand all the way, if not there is something wrong with the door that will need attention first. If it does close then hook the opener back up. On the opener rail at the end by your header there is a little magnetic relay that is wired to the motor head. This can be moved farther up or down the rail. This sensor tells the opener when to stop in the downward direction. Loosen the set screw and move it toward the header 1/2 inch or so and try to lower the door. Do not move it too much at one time and if you do the door will hit the ground and come back up. Thanks BB
Some customers may comment that the sunroof will no longer respond to the control switch while in a vented, partially opened, or fully opened position.
Cause
A software issue with the sunroof control module may cause the sunroof control module to incorrectly indicate a "closed" position, which may result in no power to the sunroof motor.
Correction
Verify the customer concern. If a condition is present, replace the sunroof control module with a new sunroof control module, P/N 15847643. Refer to the Service Procedure in this bulletin.
Service Procedure
Verify the customer concern by opening and closing the sunroof.
•
If the sunroof will not open , check the power windows.
-
If the power windows are also inoperative, check the fuse. If the fuse has opened, refer to Corporate Bulletin Number 05-08-64-004 to install 30A circuit breaker.
-
If the power windows are fully functional, refer to "Power Sunroof Inoperative" diagnostics (SI Document ID# 1392967) in the Body section of the 2005 Chevrolet Equinox or Saturn VUE Service Manual.
•
If the sunroof will open (or is already open), but will not close , proceed to Step 2.
Replace the sunroof control module. Refer to "Sunroof Control Module Replacement" procedure in the Body section of the 2005 Chevrolet Equinox Service Manual (SI Document ID# 1196049) or Saturn VUE Service Manual (SI Document ID# 1710479).
Open and close the sunroof in order to confirm that the customer concern has been resolved.
