Newsflash! My Marantec M4500 was working from the wall switch, but not from any of my remotes. I tried new batteries in the remotes to no avail. When I swapped antennas from one garage door to my other garage door, the problem seem to be with the antenna so I figured I might need a new antenna. Looked online for a new antenna and they basically unavailable; decided as a last resort to spray some deoxidizing electronic contact cleaner (“tuner cleaner” us old guys call it) on the four little prong contacts where the antenna fits into the controller unit. Boom! Everything works fine….all the remotes now function, and all is good. You might want to give this a try if all else fails, it worked for me.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I pinned your comment so that anyone looking for a solution can see what worked for someone else. I will have to try this as well on my right side garage door opener.

Can you install this from the inside as well. ?
@ChrisMcDowellDIY6 күн бұрын
I guess, just depends a little on which way your door swings open. It might get in the way of the door.

Thank you so much for putting this video up many years ago. It helped me today! Except ours was setup with a float switch. Pumped and scooped water out as fast as I could, A/C turned right back on! I was the hero tonight, not the emergency HVAC people.

Im still a bit confused. Do you tape velcro to the curtain too? Or will the curtain just stick to the velcro mounted on the door? Help please🙏🏻
@ChrisMcDowellDIY6 күн бұрын
On the curtain I used, there is already one side of the velcro attached to the curtain - it comes that way. Just have to stick the other side of the velcro to the frame.

That's a condensate pump, not a sump pump. If the condensate pump stops working or cannot drain, it shuts down the system.

I noticed you have a double hung window and when the shade comes down, it bangs into the bottom one. Shouldn't you use an outside mount?

I came home and My thermostat was off. I checked my drain pump connected to the AC and the water level was up to the brim of the pump. I gave it a few taps and the pump kicked in, Which in effect turned on the thermostat. Really appreciate it!!
