For the demonstration the battery 🔋 pack was left installed which illuminates green LEDs. These LEDs should be ignored because they only illuminate after the battery 🔋 is installed which is the last step so don’t expect to see them until that time.

These instructions worked well for me. I'd like to know how the travel got so far out of whack, door was opening 1/4, but it works now. Remember to watch your noggin' while setting the up travel, that the door doesn't hit you or the rip cord strangles you.

Make sure your wires are correct! I accidently wired the wall button in with the green sensor and the red sensor into the wall button connection on the power head, it caused the red sensor to flash red, and the wall button powered on but would not work. Save yourself 1 hour of troubleshooting.

What happens if you cannot set the Open and close limit successfully? I have a Genie Stealth and it seems to perform contact reverse for 4 inches at every interval of the close limit. Frustrating that the manual does not tell us how to troubleshoot for problems.

The reverse contact test doesn't work on my new SilentMax 750 3/4 HP Belt Drive Garage Door Opener. On rare occasion it will reverse if the 2x3 is on it's side (2.5 inches vs 1.5 inches). I adjusted the up/down limits twice, force levels from 1 to 9, no help. Also, which is more sensitive, 1 or 9?

After initial setup of the garage door opener, the unit should be ran up and down with the wall console to auto-set the force. Did you do this piece? Also please verify that the door is correctly balanced, we can provide you more help over the phone at 1-800-354-3643

@@GenieCompany Thanks. They phone support guy said the 2x4 is supposed to be on its side rather than flat. Flat is what the instruction say and what the picture shows. But it works on edge, so I'm good with that--1.5 inches vs 3.5 inches. As long as my cats don't try to do the Limbo under the sensors, they should be fine.

This garage door programming is very difficult. I am going to go fix my brothers in a few minutes. If the door becomes harder to close over time, maybe spring has become weaker door will not close and open with remote. Very annoying! Must go through whole process from start to finish. I see they removed from video how to just increase power to raise and lower door when this happens. Its in the manual how to do this but i could never get it to work. More later after I address this issue!

After i closed and opened the door from wall to set the force remote would not work. Worked from wall only. Then press the square set button on bottom of opener for 2 seconds. From about 5 feet away slowly depress the button of the remote you want to use 2 times. Wait a couple seconds and depress the button on remote you just programmed. The door will move to open or closed position. Hope this helps!

I’m having pure hell with my Genie. I put in a new MachForce 2 horse and it would not keep the travel distance programs. Each time I opened the door it would stop an inch lower on each open and then it would close too far on each open. I had to reprogram it every day. I took it down and returned it and bought another one and installed it. After about the second day it has started doing the same thing. I have tried to get in touch with someone at Genie and keep getting put on hold. You have any ideas???
