Craftman Garaged Door Unit Stopped Working

My craftman garage door unit stopped working using the wall switch or the remote. When pressed, I hear the clicking sound, however, the unit does not activate(chain does not move). The light bulb does not turn on either. I checked the light bulb and it works on a lamp. I checked the ckt breaker and nothing is tripped. It's like it is not getting power, but why would I hear the clicking sound? Any ideas?

This sounds like you will have to replace the logic board. Whether you repair or replace get a surge protector 900 joules or higher unless you want it to happen again. You can get replacement parts at searspartsdirect.com. Thanks BB

On the sensor for the craftman garage door opener 1 is orange and the other is green and my garage door doesn't open with the remotes

Nothing wrong with the sensors. They don't work when the door is opening anyway. Only when closing. Make sure the light in the wall control is not flashing. If it is press and hold the lock button for 3 seconds.

Craftman 1/3 garage door remote does not open garage

Try another remote to see if it is just the remote or maybe the receiver on the logic board. Check to see if the wall control works and is not in the vacation mode. More information would sure help.

Craftman Garage Door Opener Quit Working.

It could be a bad logic board especially if you have had any electrical storms in the area. I would remove and check the logic board for burnt or missing traces on the printed circuit board.

I have 2 liftmaster 3245. The hand held remotes were working fine then stopped. I replaced the batteries and turned of all electrical/RIF close by. Still not working. Both cars operate the doors with no...

You need to reprogram the remotes by briefly pushing the learn button on the garage door opener until it flashes once, then release the button on the garage door opener.

Now press the remote button once until you hear the garage door opener click, now press the remote button once again and the remote should be programmed to work for that garage door opener.

DO NOT press and hold the garage door opener learn button for more than 10 seconds or you'll erase all programs and have to relearn all the remotes, including your car ones.

Hope you found this very helpful and best regards.
